%N A076523 Maximal number of halving lines for 2n points in plane.
%C A076523 Let S be a set of n points in the plane. A halving line is a line through
two points in S that splits the remaining points into two equal-sized
subsets. How many halving lines can S have?
%C A076523 The values n = 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 were obtained by Abrego et al.
The same values hold also for the maximum number of pseudo-halving
lines in a generalized configuration of 2n points. The next unknown
value, n = 14 (i.e. the maximum number of halving lines among 28
points), is either 63 or 64. - Bernardo M Abrego (bernardo.abrego(AT)csun.edu),
