Given a set of points $P$ and a set of regions $\mathcal{O}$, an incidence is a pair $(p,o ) \in P \times \mathcal{O}$ such that $p \in o$. We obtain a number of new results on a classical question in combinatorial geometry: What is the…

The first goal of this paper is to prove a sharp condition to guarantee of having a positive proportion of all congruence classes of triangles in given sets in $\mathbb{F}_q^2$. More precisely, for $A, B, C\subset \mathbb{F}_q^2$, if…

Let $p_1,\ldots,p_n$ be a set of points in the unit square and let $T_1,\ldots,T_n$ be a set of $\delta$-tubes such that $T_j$ passes through $p_j$. We prove a lower bound for the number of incidences between the points and tubes under a…

We prove bounds on the number of incidences between a set of algebraic curves in $\mathbb{C}^2$ and a Cartesian product $A\times B$ with finite sets $A,B\subset \mathbb{C}$. Similar bounds are known under various conditions, but we show…

We present a direct and fairly simple proof of the following incidence bound: Let $P$ be a set of $m$ points and $L$ a set of $n$ lines in ${\mathbb R}^d$, for $d\ge 3$, which lie in a common algebraic two-dimensional surface of degree $D$…

We study the $\delta$-discretized Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem and Furstenberg set problem. We prove sharp estimates for both two problems assuming tubes satisfy some spacing condition. For both two problems, we construct sharp examples that…

We derive a general upper bound for the number of incidences with $k$-dimensional varieties in ${\mathbb R}^d$. The leading term of this new bound generalizes previous bounds for the special cases of $k=1, k=d-1,$ and $k= d/2$, to every…

We study incidences between points and algebraic curves in three dimensions, taken from a family $C$ of curves that have almost two degrees of freedom, meaning that every pair of curves intersect in $O(1)$ points, for any pair of points…

We consider two incidence problems for integral curves of vector fields. The first is an analogue of the Euclidean joints problem, in which lines are replaced by integral curves of smooth vector fields taken from some finite-dimensional…

We prove a new upper bound for the number of incidences between points and lines in a plane over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, a problem first considered by Bourgain, Katz and Tao. Specifically, we show that $m$ points and $n$ lines in…

We obtain new upper and lower bounds on the number of unit perimeter triangles spanned by points in the plane. We also establish improved bounds in the special case where the point set is a section of the integer grid.

In this paper, we prove a new point-sphere incidence bound in vector spaces over finite fields. More precisely, let $P$ be a set of points and $S$ be a set of spheres in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. Suppose that $|P|, |S|\le N$, we prove that the…

A $(k,m)$-Furstenberg set is a subset $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ with the property that each $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ can be translated so that it intersects $S$ in at least $m$ points. Ellenberg and Erman proved that…
