释义

Cube Dissection

A Cube can be divided into subcubes for only , 8, 15, 20, 22, 27, 29, 34, 36, 38, 39, 41, 43, 45, 46, and (Sloane's A014544).

The seven pieces used to construct the cube dissection known as the Soma Cube areone 3-Polycube and six 4-Polycubes (), illustrated above.

Another cube dissection due to Steinhaus uses three 5-Polycubes andthree 4-Polycubes (), illustrated above.

It is possible to cut a Rectangle into two identical pieces which will form a Cube (withoutoverlapping) when folded and joined. In fact, an Infinite number of solutions to this problem were discovered byC. L. Baker (Hunter and Madachy 1975).
