Résumé : We consider approximation algorithms for the problem of computing an inscribed rectangle having largest area in a convex polygon on n vertices. If the order of the vertices of the polygon is given, we present a randomized algorithm that computes an inscribed rectangle with area at least (1/ε) times the optimum with probability t in time O(1εlogn) for any constant t<1. We further give a deterministic approximation algorithm that computes an inscribed rectangle of area at least (1-ε) times the optimum in running time O(1 ε2logn) and show how this running time can be slightly improved. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
