| contents | An old question posed by Erdős asked whether there exists a set of $n$ points such that $c \cdot n$ distances occur more than $n$ times. We provide an affirmative answer to this question, showing that there exists a set of $n$ points such that $\lfloor \frac{n}{4}\rfloor$ distances occur more than $n$ times. We also present a generalized version, finding a set of $n$ points where $c_m \cdot n$ distances occurring more than $n+m$ times. |
