Packing measure formula for regular-polygon self-similar sets

Let ErE_r be the self-similar set associated with a system of contracting similitudes Ψ={f1,f2,,fN}\Psi=\{f_1,f_2,\ldots,f_N\} satisfying the strong separation condition. Suppose that, for every i=1,,Ni=1,\ldots,N, fi(x)=rx+bif_i(x)=rx+b_i, where r(0,1N)r\in(0,\frac{1}{N}) and x,biRnx,b_i\in\mathbb{R}^n. Let s(r)s(r) be the similarity dimension, let μ\mu denote the natural measure, and suppose that the fixed points of the NN similarities are the vertices of an NN-regular polygon. Then

Regular-polygon packing measure formula. The conjectured packing measure satisfies

Ps(r)(Pr)=B(xi,1r)s(r)μ(B(xi,1r))=(21rr)s(r).P^{s(r)}(P_r)=\frac{|B(x_i,1-r)|^{s(r)}}{\mu(B(x_i,1-r))}=\left(2\frac{1-r}{r}\right)^{s(r)}.

The claim is presented as the conjectural conclusion of the numerical and algorithmic results preceding it. The supplied text does not indicate whether it has been proved or disproved.
