Erdős's conjecture on equilateral triangles in six dimensions
Let denote the maximum number of equilateral triangles determined by a set of points in . Erdős's conjecture. Any set of points in can span at most
equilateral triangles, i.e., . Erdős and Purdy proved the matching lower bound , so the conjecture would determine the asymptotic maximum. Its resolution remains open.
