We introduce a numerical maximization algorithm which performs multiple optimizations steps at each iteration to approximate minimal partitions. Using these partitions we compute perturbations of the domain which increase the minimal perimeter. The initialization of the optimal partitioning algorithm uses capacity-constrained Voronoi diagrams. A new algorithm is proposed to identify such diagrams, by computing the gradients of areas and perimeters for the Voronoi cells with respect to the Voronoi points.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.02891v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2102.02891v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"longest-minimal-length-partitions","repo_url":"https://github.com/bbogo/LongestShortestPartitions","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
