Lower bounds for the number of small convex k-holes

Let S be a set of n points in the plane in general position, that is, no three points of S are on a line. We consider an Erdos-type question on the least number h(k)(n) of convex k-holes in S, and give improved lower bounds on h(k)(n), for 3 <= k <= 5. Specifically, we show that h(3)(n) >=...
