Eppstein's bound on intersecting triangles revisited

Abstract

Let S be a set of n points in the plane, and let T be a set of m triangles with vertices in S. Then there exists a point in the plane contained in Omega(m3 / (n6 log2 n)) triangles of T. Eppstein (1993) gave a proof of this claim, but there is a problem with his proof. Here we provide a correct proof by slightly modifying Eppstein's argument.
