DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/EPC/72/">On 
 Erdős' Unit Distances Problem</a>\nby Jozsef Solymosi (University of Brit
 ish Columbia) as part of Extremal and probabilistic combinatorics webinar\
 n\n\nAbstract\nIn 1946\, Paul Erdős published a paper in the American Mat
 hematical Monthly "On sets of distances of n points". He proposed two prob
 lems in discrete geometry. What is the minimum number of distinct distance
 s among n points in the plane\, and among n points in the plane how many p
 airs of points could be at unit distance from each other? The first questi
 on was answered almost completely by Larry Guth and Netz Katz in 2010\, bu
 t the second\, on unit distances\, resisted all attacks so far. I will tal
 k about the unit distances problems\, and related questions.\n
