You want to fill the gaps between your x points with disjoint squares?

> I need to know how many of these squares are in the space and all their coordinates (tuples). 

You are implying there is only one solution, that's wrong because you exclude overlaps.

Maybe you have an "optimal" solution in mind, but you didn't tell us the criteria.

Like

otherwise the solution is trivial, just take all "squares" with length 1.

Give us your solution for your OP maybe we can guess what you really want.

Smells like an XY problem to me.

Rectangles instead of squares would be much easier.
