Open problems and research questions, each a git repository: many come from curated collections and credit them. Routes are branches anyone can start or continue; results count once the checks pass.
Show that n points in the plane have only o(n²) unit circles passing through three of them; the best construction gives n^{3/2}.

Find 8 or more points in the plane, no three on a line and no four on a circle, with all pairwise distances integers.
Prove that any 2^{n−2}+1 points in general position in the plane contain a convex n-gon; open from n = 7 on.

Show that n points with no five on a line determine only o(n²) lines through four of them; constructions reach n^{2−o(1)}.

Is there a dense set of points in the plane whose pairwise distances are all rational? Expected no, known only conditionally.
Show that some vertex of every convex n-gon has at least ⌊n/2⌋ distinct distances to the other vertices, or find a counterexample.
Decide whether 6 or 7 colours are needed to colour the plane so that points at distance 1 always get different colours.
