The stable-region splitting conjecture for higher-dimensional hyperplanes

Let Σ=RnRn+1\Sigma=\mathbb{R}^n\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1} be a self-shrinker with n3n\geq 3. Let r1r_1 be the dimension-dependent radius from the cited remark. Then there should exist a number r0=r0(n)r_0=r_0(n) with r0<r1r_0<r_1 such that, for every r(r0,r1)r\in(r_0,r_1), the (n1)(n-1)-sphere of radius rr centered at the origin splits Σ\Sigma into two stable regions. Stable-region splitting conjecture. There exists r0=r0(n)<r1r_0=r_0(n)<r_1 such that every such sphere with radius in (r0,r1)(r_0,r_1) splits the hyperplane into two stable regions. The analogous statement is known for the plane in R3\mathbb{R}^3, but the source says that the argument has not been reproduced in higher dimensions.
