This paper focuses on incidences over finite fields, extending to higher degrees a result by Vinh \cite{VINH20111177} on the number of point-line incidences in the plane $\mathbb{F}^2$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field. Specifically, we…

We prove almost tight bounds on incidences between points and $k$-dimensional varieties of bounded degree in $\R^d$. Our main tools are the Polynomial Ham Sandwich Theorem and induction on both the dimension and the number of points.

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…

We prove a new, tight upper bound on the number of incidences between points and hyperplanes in Euclidean d-space. Given n points, of which k are colored red, there are O_d(m^{2/3}k^{2/3}n^{(d-2)/3} + kn^{d-2} + m) incidences between the k…
