Covering a point set by two disjoint rectangles. (English) Zbl 1228.65089

The authors consider two variants of the following optimization problem: For a set \(S\) of \(n\) points in the plane, the two-rectangle covering problem is to find a pair of rectangles such that the union of the rectangles contains all the points in \(S\) and the area of the larger rectangle is minimized.
For both variants, the authors present \(O(n^2\log n)\)-time algorithms using \(O(n)\) space.
