Title
Forcing disjoint segments in the plane
Abstract
Abstract Consider a geometric,graph,given by n points in the plane (in general position) and m line segments, each segment joining a pair of the given points. We show,that: if m � 3n + 1 then there are 3 pairwise disjoint segments; if m � 10n + 1 then there are 4 disjoint segments; and if m � ckn(logn),,4 then there are k disjoint segments. 3
