Erika Berenice Roldán Roa - Polyominoes with Maximally Many Holes - G4G13 Apr 2018

In 1953 Solomon W. Golomb defined a polyomino as a rook-wise, connected subset of squares of the infinite checkerboard. The first polyomino puzzles were tiling problems. Most of the time in tiling problems one restricts to simply-connected polyominoes (i.e., polyominoes without holes). But
