  • Abstract:

    We discuss a new upper bound for the Heilbronn triangle problem, showing that for sufficiently large $n$ in every configuration of $n$ points chosen inside a unit square there exists a triangle of area less than $n^{-8/7-1/2000}$. This is joint work with Alex Cohen and Dmitrii Zakharov.
