The asymptotic local dimension conjecture for powers of chains

About 6 years old · traced to

Let tn\mathbf{t}^n denote the nn-fold product of a chain with tt elements, let ldim⁡(P)\operatorname{ldim}(P) denote the local dimension of a poset PP, and let log⁡tn\log_t n be the logarithm of nn to base tt. There should be a universal constant cc independent of tt such that, for every t∈Nt\in\mathbb{N}, the following asymptotic holds as n→∞n\to\infty.

Asymptotic local dimension conjecture for powers of chains. There exists a universal constant cc such that, for any t∈N⁡t\in\operatorname{\mathbb{N}}, as n→∞n\to\infty,

ldim⁡(tn)∼cnlog⁡tn.\operatorname{ldim}\big(\mathbf{t}^n\big) \sim c\frac{n}{\log_t n}.

This is presented as a stronger conjecture than the Boolean-lattice claim, extending the proposed asymptotic to products of chains. The source gives no resolution evidence.
