摘要
We study affine arrangements of an even number $n$ of lines and pseudolines with many triangles. For simple ones, Blanc's bound limits the number of triangular faces to $\lfloor n(n-5/2)/3\rfloor$. Adapting the Bartholdi-Blanc-Loisel doubling to the even case, we construct an infinite series of arrangements of $n=6\cdot2^t+2$ ($8,14,26,50,\ldots$) straight lines with two triple points and $(n(n-5/2)+1)/3$ triangles, one more than the simple bound allows. We obtain exhaustive enumerations of triangle-maximal pseudoline arrangements, simple or not, for even $n\le12$. For $n=6,8,10,12,14$ the maximum number of triangles, for both lines and pseudolines, is $7,15,25,38,54$; for $n=8,12,14$ every optimal arrangement has multiple points. All optimal arrangements for even $n\le12$ are realizable by straight lines, except two arrangements of 10 pseudolines, which are not stretchable. For the odd value $n=11$, no arrangement with $33$ triangles exists even with multiple points. We also obtain even arrangements by adding a line to odd ones. For $n\equiv2\pmod 6$ this again gives one triangle more than the simple bound, in pseudolines up to $n=44$ and in straight lines for $n=20$ and $n=32$. Doubling these pseudoline arrangements gives members of the series $18\cdot2^t+2$ and $30\cdot2^t+2$ with the same excess, up to $n=146$ and $n=242$, respectively; those with $n=38$ and $n=74$ are realizable by straight lines. These results lead us to conjecture that an arrangement of an even number $n$ of pseudolines has at most $\lfloor n(n-2)/3\rfloor-\lfloor n/6\rfloor$ triangles.

Non-simple Arrangements of Lines and Pseudolines with Many Triangles
We study affine arrangements of an even number $n$ of lines and pseudolines with many triangles. For simple ones, Blanc's bound limits the number of triangular faces to $\lfloor n(n-5/2)/3\rfloor$. Adapting the Bartholdi-Blanc-Loisel doubling to the even case, we construct an infinite series of arrangements of $n=6\cdot2^t+2$ ($8,14,26,50,\ldots$) straight lines with two triple points and $(n(n-5/2)+1)/3$ triangles, one more than the simple bound allows.
