Problem Statement
Eight rooks are placed on a 8\times 8 chessboard, so that no two rooks attack one another.
All squares of the board are divided between the rooks as follows. A square where a rook is placed belongs to it. If a square is attacked by two rooks then it belongs to the nearest rook; in case these two rooks are equidistant from this square each of them possesses a half of the square. Prove that every rook possesses the equal area.
