Abstract
We study some properties of axray grammars, called puzzle grammars, introduced in [NS89].We give a new method, using puzzle grammar, for generating the set of rectangles. We prove the the emptiness problem for puzzle grammar is undecidable. We show that the non-overlapping problem for puzzle grammar is decidable.
