Engel et al.'s antichain Hausdorff-measure conjecture

Let [0,1]n[0,1]^n be equipped with the coordinatewise partial order, and let an antichain be a subset A[0,1]nA\subset[0,1]^n containing no two distinct comparable points. Write Hn1(A)\mathcal{H}^{n-1}(A) for its (n1)(n-1)-dimensional Hausdorff measure. Engel et al.'s conjecture. There exists an antichain AA in [0,1]n[0,1]^n such that

Hn1(A)=n.\mathcal{H}^{n-1}(A)=n.

The bound Hn1(A)n\mathcal{H}^{n-1}(A)\leq n is known, and it is asymptotically sharp; the conjecture is verified for n=1n=1 and n=2n=2, but its validity in general remains open.
