The quarter-size upper-bound conjecture for crossing families of elbows
The quarter-size upper-bound conjecture for crossing families of elbows
Let be a set of points in the plane in general position. An elbow is an orthogonal geometric-graph edge consisting of one horizontal and one vertical line segment, and a crossing family of elbows is a family in which every two elbows cross. Elbow crossing-family conjecture. There are point sets of elements that do not admit a crossing family of elbows with more than elements. The proved lower bound is , while the matching upper-bound construction remains conjectural.
