Erdős's weak Dirac conjecture
Let be a finite set of mutually distinct points, and let be the set of lines determined by pairs of points of . Erdős's weak Dirac conjecture. Every set of non-collinear points in the plane (presumably over the real numbers) contains a point which is incident to at least
lines from for a certain constant . This is a classical incidence-geometric conjecture asserting the existence of a point incident to linearly many determined lines; the source does not provide evidence of a resolution.
