TY - JOUR T1 - The decomposition of a square into rectangles of minimal perimeter JF - Discrete Applied Mathematics Y1 - 1987 A1 - Kong,T.Y A1 - Mount, Dave A1 - Werman,Michael AB - This paper solves the problem of subdividing a unit square into p rectangles of area 1/p in such a way that the maximal perimeter of a rectangle is as small as possible. The correctness of the solution is proved using the well-known theorems of Menger and Dilworth.
