Abstract

An interior point of a finite planar point set is a point of the set that is not on the boundary of the convex hull of the set. For any integer k ≥ 1, let g(k) be the smallest integer such that every set P of points in the plane with no three collinear points and with at least g(k) interior points has a subset containing precisely k interior point of P. We prove that g(k) ≥ 3k for k ≥ 3, which improves the known result that g(k) ≥ 3k − 1 for k ≥ 3.
