Abstract
Theoretically seen dividing a pizza equally is not an easy task. For instance, with a normal knife (straight cuts) one has to hit the center so that the cut is a diameter. But there are alternatives (also for dividing equally between more than two persons) which have strong connections to elementary geometry and to integral calculus. This paper deals with these alternatives elucidating the so called “pizza theorem”.
