Abstract: We investigate the decomposition problem of balls into finitely many congruent pieces in dimension $d=2k$. In addition, we prove that the $d$ dimensional unit ball $B_d$ can be divided into finitely many congruent pieces if $d=4$ or $dge6$. We show that the minimal number of required pieces is less than $20d$ if $dge10$.
