The paper studies how many isosceles right triangles can be determined by \(n\) points on the plane -- they are not required to be congruent. The maximum number divided by \(n^2\) has a lim inf, which is between \(0.433064\) and \(2/3\). In addition, the exact maximum number is determined for \(n\leq 9\).
