The Erdős distinct distances problem, posed by the Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős in 1946, is a question in combinatorial geometry that seeks to determine the minimum number of distinct distances between points in a given finite set in the plane. Specifically, the problem asks for the largest number of points \( n \) that can be placed in the plane such that the number of distinct distances between pairs of points is minimized.
