Conjecture on sharp polynomial bounds for triangles in pseudo-line arrangements

Let A\mathcal{A} be an affine arrangement or a projective arrangement of nn pseudo-lines. The quantities a3(A)a_3(\mathcal{A}) and p3(A)p_3(\mathcal{A}) denote the numbers of triangular cells in the affine and projective arrangements, respectively, and the bounds stated in the polynomial-bound theorems apply to the corresponding quantity. Sharpness conjecture. The bounds of Theorems~ and~ are reached for any integer n21n\geq 21. This conjecture extends the previously known special case for projective arrangements with n0,4(mod6)n\equiv 0,4\pmod{6}; the preceding theorem establishes sharpness for infinitely many values in every residue class modulo 66, while the claim concerns every n21n\geq 21.
