Abstract

Let P be a set of n points in general position in the plane. Let R be a set of points disjoint from P such that for every x, y € P the line through x and y contains a point in R. We show that if is contained in a cubic curve c in the plane, then P has a special property with respect to the natural group structure on c. That is, P is contained in a coset of a subgroup H of c of cardinality at most |R|. We use the same approach to show a similar result in the case where each of B and G is a set of n points in general position in the plane and every line through a point in B and a point in G passes through a point in R. This provides a partial answer to a problem of Karasev. The bound is best possible at least for part of our results. Our extremal constructions provide a counterexample to an old conjecture attributed to Jamison about point sets that determine few directions.
平面上三次曲线上一般位置点的集合
设P是平面上一般位置上n个点的集合。设R是与P不相交的点的集合,使得对于每一个x, y - P,经过x和y的直线在R中包含一个点。我们证明如果包含在平面上的三次曲线c中,那么P对于c上的自然群结构有一个特殊的性质,即P包含在基数不超过|R|的c的子群H的余集中。我们用同样的方法来显示一个类似的结果,在这种情况下,B和G中的每个点都是平面上一般位置上的n个点的集合,每条线都经过B中的一个点,G中的一个点经过r中的一个点。这提供了卡拉塞夫问题的部分答案。这个界至少对我们的部分结果来说是最好的。我们的极值结构提供了一个反例,反驳了Jamison关于点集决定很少方向的老猜想。
