  1. For a finite point set P⊂R^d, denote by diam(P) the ratio of the largest to the smallest distances between pairs of points in P. Let c_{d,α}(n) be the largest integer c such that any n-point set P⊂R^d in general position, satisfying diam(P)<αn^{1/d}, contains an c-point convex independent subset. We determine the asymptotics of c_{d,α}(n) as n→∞ by showing the existence of positive constants β=β(d,α) and γ=γ(d) such that βn^{(d−1)/(d+1)}≤c_{d,α}(n)≤γn^{(d−1)/(d+1)} for α≥2.
