摘要

We study questions inspired by Erdős’ celebrated distance problems with dot products in lieu of distances, and for more than a single pair of points. In particular, we study point configurations present in large finite point sets in the plane that are described by weighted trees. We give new lower bounds on the number of distinct sets of dot products serving as weights for a given type of tree in any large finite point set. We also as demonstrate the existence of many repetitions of some special sets of dot products occurring in a given type of tree in different constructions, narrowing gap between the best known upper and lower bounds on these configurations.
