Claim. In A sunflower anti-Ramsey theorem and its applications, Corollary 1(1) states that for every dimension there is a constant such that, if has and no points of lie on a -sphere, then contains points all of whose -simplices have distinct circumradii. The proof colors each -tuple by its circumradius and applies the paper's sunflower anti-Ramsey theorem with , since at most two spheres of a given radius pass through points. For this gives for any planar point set with no four points concyclic.
Covers. The upper bound . Its hypothesis, no four points on a circle, is implied by the general position of Problem 827, so the bound holds for the problem's . It improves the bound of Martínez and Roldán-Pensado and does not determine for any .
Standing. Claimed. The manuscript is on arXiv, dated 19 May 2015, and no journal version of it is recorded. A thread post of 26 August 2026 pointed to Corollary 1(1) as giving this bound. The site's commentary does not mention the manuscript, and no review of it is recorded.
