- W2890815559 abstract "A family of sets $F$ is said to satisfy the $(p,q)$ property if among any $p$ sets in $F$, some $q$ have a non-empty intersection. Hadwiger and Debrunner (1957) conjectured that for any $p geq q geq d+1$ there exists $c=c_d(p,q)$, such that any family of compact convex sets in $mathbb{R}^d$ that satisfies the $(p,q)$ property, can be pierced by at most $c$ points. In a celebrated result from 1992, Alon and Kleitman proved the conjecture. However, obtaining sharp bounds on $c_d(p,q)$, called `the Hadwiger-Debrunner numbers', is still a major open problem in discrete and computational geometry. The best currently known lower bound on the Hadwiger-Debrunner numbers in the plane is $c_2(p,q) = Omega( frac{p}{q}log(frac{p}{q}))$ while the best known upper bound is $O(p^{(1.5+delta)(1+frac{1}{q-2})})$. In this paper we improve the lower bound significantly by showing that $c_2(p,q) geq p^{1+Omega(1/q)}$. Furthermore, the bound is obtained by a family of lines, and is tight for all families that have a bounded VC-dimension. Unlike previous bounds on the Hadwiger-Debrunner numbers which mainly used the weak epsilon-net theorem, our bound stems from a surprising connection of the $(p,q)$ problem to an old problem of Erdős on points in general position in the plane. We use a novel construction for the Erdős' problem, obtained recently by Balogh and Solymosi using the hypergraph container method, to get the lower bound on $c_2(p,3)$. We then generalize the bound to $c_2(p,q)$ for any $q geq 3$." @default.
