Title
Maximum number of almost similar triangles in the plane
Abstract
A triangle T' is epsilon-similar to another triangle T if their angles pairwise differ by at most epsilon. Given a triangle T, epsilon > 0 and n is an element of & nbsp;N, Barany and Furedi asked to determine the maximum number of triangles h(n, T, epsilon) being epsilon-similar to T in a planar point set of size n. We show that for almost all triangles T there exists epsilon = epsilon(T) > 0 such that h(n, T, epsilon) = (1 + o(1))n3/24. Exploring connections to hypergraph Turan problems, we use flag algebras and stability techniques for the proof. (C)& nbsp;2022 Published by Elsevier B.V.
