  Locally isoperimetric $N$-partitions are partitions of the space $\mathbb
R^d$ into $N$ regions with prescribed, finite or infinite measure, which have
minimal perimeter (which is the $(d-1)$-dimensional measure of the interfaces
between the regions) among all variations with compact support preserving the
total measure of each region. In the case when only one region has infinite
measure, the problem reduces to the well known problem of isoperimetric
clusters: in this case the minimal perimeter is finite, and variations are not
required to have compact support.
  In a recent paper by Alama, Bronsard and Vriend, the definition of
isoperimetric partition was introduced, and an example, namely the \emph{lens}
partition, was shown to be locally isoperimetric in the plane. In the present
paper we are able to give more examples of isoperimetric partitions: in any
dimension $d\ge 2$ we have the \emph{lens}, the \emph{peanut} and the
\emph{Releaux} triangle. For $d\ge 3$ we also have a \emph{thetrahedral}
partition. To obtain these results we prove a \emph{closure} theorem which
enables us to state that the $L^1_{loc}$-limit of a sequence of isoperimetric
clusters is an isoperimetric partition, if the limit partition is composed by
\emph{flat} interfaces outside a large ball. In this way we can make use of the
known results about standard clusters.
  In the planar case $d=2$ we have a complete understanding of locally
isoperimetric partitions: they exist if and only if the number of regions with
infinite area is at most three. Moreover if the total number of regions is at
most four then, up to isometries, there is a unique locally isoperimetric
partition which is the lens, the peanut or the Releaux partition already
mentioned.
