A de Bruijn - Erdős theorem and metric spaces

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

De Bruijn and Erdős proved that every noncollinear set of n points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. Chen and Chvátal suggested a possible generalization of this theorem in the framework of metric spaces. We provide partial results in this direction.
