This paper investigates several classical and novel variations of the Erd\H{o}s--Szekeres problem, including multicolored point sets, convex hexagons with a given number of interior points, and polygons with constraints on edge colors. We…

A famous result by Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres (1935) asserts that, for all $k,d \in \mathbb{N}$, there is a smallest integer $n = g^{(d)}(k)$ such that every set of at least $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in general position contains a $k$-gon,…

In this paper, we consider saturation problems related to the celebrated Erd\H{o}s--Szekeres convex polygon problem. For each $n \ge 7$, we construct a planar point set of size $(7/8) \cdot 2^{n-2}$ which is saturated for convex $n$-gons.…

We introduce the theory of div point sets, which aims to provide a framework to study the combinatoric nature of any set of points in general position on an Euclidean plane. We then show that proving the unsatisfiability of some first-order…

Let $ES(n)$ be the minimal integer such that any set of $ES(n)$ points in the plane in general position contains $n$ points in convex position. The problem of estimating $ES(n)$ was first formulated by Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres, who proved…

The Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres conjecture states that any set of more than $2^{n-2}$ points in the plane with no three on a line contains the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. Erd\H{o}s, Tuza, and Valtr strengthened the conjecture by stating that any…

We consider point sets in the real projective plane $\mathbb{R}P^2$ and explore variants of classical extremal problems about planar point sets in this setting, with a main focus on Erd\H{o}s--Szekeres-type problems. We provide…

According to Suk's breakthrough result on the Erdos-Szekeres problem, any point set in general position in the plane, which has no $n$ elements that form the vertex set of a convex $n$-gon, has at most $2^{n+O\left({n^{2/3}\log n}\right)}$…

According to the Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres theorem, for every $n$, a sufficiently large set of points in general position in the plane contains $n$ in convex position. In this note we investigate the line version of this result, that is, we want…

We consider the computational versions of the Erd\H os-Szekeres theorem and related problems in 3 dimensions. We show that, in constrast to the planar case, no polynomial time algorithm exists for determining the largest (empty) convex…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problem, presenting efficient algorithms with $O(n^3)$ running time and $O(n^2)$ space complexity that compute: (1) A subset $S$ of $P$…

We prove the 4-uniform Erd\H{o}s Matching Conjecture for every matching number $s\ge 6961$. The proof has two parts. First, building on ideas from Frankl--R\"odl--Ruci\'nski, we formulate a general finite-board criterion for the $r$-uniform…

Let $ES(n)$ be the smallest integer such that any set of $ES(n)$ points in the plane in general position contains $n$ points in convex position. In their seminal 1935 paper, Erdos and Szekeres showed that $ES(n) \leq {2n - 4\choose n-2} + 1…

Let $ES(n)$ denote the minimum natural number such that every set of $ES(n)$ points in general position in the plane contains $n$ points in convex position. In 1935, Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres proved that $ES(n) \le {2n-4 \choose n-2}+1$. In…

We show an equivalence between a conjecture of Bisztriczky and Fejes T{\'o}th about arrangements of planar convex bodies and a conjecture of Goodman and Pollack about point sets in topological affine planes. As a corollary of this…

Given a finite set satisfying condition $\mathcal{A}$, the subset selection problem asks, how large of a subset satisfying condition $\mathcal{B}$ can we find? We make progress on three instances of subset selection problems in planar point…

We present a computational methodology for obtaining rotationally symmetric sets of points satisfying discrete geometric constraints, and demonstrate its applicability by discovering new solutions to some well-known problems in…

We apply ideas from the theory of limits of dense combinatorial structures to study order types, which are combinatorial encodings of finite point sets. Using flag algebras we obtain new numerical results on the Erd\H{o}s problem of finding…

For each $n \geq 2$, $l \geq 3$, let ${ES}_L (l,n)$ be the minimum $N$ such that every family of $N$-lines in the plane contains either $l$ concurrent lines or $n$ lines in convex position. In this papar, we give the upper and lower bounds…

The famous Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture from 1973 states, in an equivalent form, that for any fixed $\delta>0$ and integer $k\geq 3$ every sufficiently large linear $3$-uniform hypergraph of size $\delta n^2$ contains some $k$ edges…
