What is Square Trisection about?

A square trisection is a problem of assembling three identical squares from a larger square, using a minimal number of pieces. This paper presents an historical overview of the square trisection problem starting with its origins in the third century. We detail the reasoning behind some of the main known solutions. Finally, we give a new solution and three ruler-and-compass constructions. We conclude with a conjecture of optimality of the proposed solution.
