Abstract

Given a set P of n points in the plane, we seek two squares whose center points belong to P, their union contains P, and the area of the larger square is minimal. We present efficient algorithms for three variants of this problem: In the first the squares are axis parallel, in the second they are free to rotate but must remain parallel to each other, and in the third they are free to rotate independently.
