Abstract

We prove that for any set S of n points in the plane and n3-α triangles spanned by the points of S there exists a point (not necessarily of S) contained in at least n3-3α/(512 log25 n) of the triangles. This implies that any set of n points in three - dimensional space defines at most 6.4n8/3 log5/3 n halving planes.
