Abstract
A key problem in combinatorial geometry is the identification of properties of a subset
of a point set which has properties like convexity, monochromaticity, and emptiness.
This thesis actual works on this sides of combinatorial geometry: efficiently finding
empty monochromatic triangles in two-colored point sets on the plane. While earlier
research focused on counting empty triangles in point set without any color, our work
takes an optimal algorithm to explicitly detect them. By using geometric insights and
visibility-based techniques. We then address a relaxed but equally compelling variant:
monochromatic triangles containing at most one point of the opposite color. For this
problem, we derive a quadratic lower bound, revealing how even slight relaxations in
geometric constraints dramatically influence lower bound of empty monochromatic triangly
in two colored point set.
