Convex fair partitions into an arbitrary number of pieces

Abstract

We prove that any convex body in the plane can be partitioned into mm convex parts of equal areas and perimeters for any integer m2m\ge 2; this result was previously known for prime powers m=pkm=p^k. We also discuss possible higher-dimensional generalizations and difficulties of extending our technique to equalizing more than one non-additive function.
