Query: Maximin share allocations on cycles   The problem of fair division of indivisible goods is a fundamental problem of
social choice. Recently, the problem was extended to the case when goods form a
graph and the goal is to allocate goods to agents so that each agent's bundle
forms a connected subgraph. For the maximin share fairness criterion
researchers proved that if goods form a tree, allocations offering each agent a
bundle of at least her maximin share value always exist. Moreover, they can be
found in polynomial time. We consider here the problem of maximin share
allocations of goods on a cycle. Despite the simplicity of the graph, the
problem turns out to be significantly harder than its tree version. We present
cases when maximin share allocations of goods on cycles exist and provide
results on allocations guaranteeing each agent a certain portion of her maximin
share. We also study algorithms for computing maximin share allocations of
goods on cycles.
