Abstract: In this work we study subdivisions of $k$-rotationally symmetric planar convex bodies that minimize the maximum relative diameter functional. For some particular subdivisions called $k$-partitions, consisting of $k$ curves meeting in an interior vertex, we prove that the so-called emph{standard $k$-partition} (given by $k$ equiangular inradius segments) is minimizing for any $kinmathbbN$, $kgeq3$. For general subdivisions, we show that the previous result only holds for $kleq6$. We also study the optimal set for this problem, obtaining that for each $kinmathbbN$, $kgeq3$, it consists of the intersection of the unit circle with the corresponding regular $k$-gon of certain area. Finally, we also discuss the problem for planar convex sets and large values of $k$, and conjecture the optimal $k$-subdivision in this case.
