Distinct Triangle Areas in a Planar Point Set
Erd˝os, Purdy, and Straus conjectured that the number of distinct (nonzero) areas of the triangles determined by n noncollinear points in the plane is at least n−1 2 , which is...

On distinct distances among points in general position and other related problems
A set of points in the plane is said to be in general position if no three of them are collinear and no four of them are cocircular. If a point set determines only distinct vector...

The Minimum Number of Distinct Areas of Triangles Determined by a Set of n Points in the Plane
We prove a conjecture of Erdos, Purdy, and Straus on the number of distinct areas of triangles determined by a set of n points in the plane. We show that if P is a set of n points...
