Unit-cube conjecture for the symmetric convex extremal

From papers

Let SC\mathcal{SC} be the class of bounded convex domains symmetric with respect to each coordinate axis, and let

Mp,d(SC)=supDSCGp,d(D).M_{p,d}(\mathcal{SC})=\sup_{D\in\mathcal{SC}}G_{p,d}(D).

For p>0p>0, define the unit cube

Qd={(x1,,xd)Rd:xi<1}.Q_d=\{(x_1,\ldots,x_d)\in\mathbb{R}^d:|x_i|<1\}.

Unit-cube conjecture.

Mp,d(SC)=λ1(Qd)pE0[τQdp].M_{p,d}(\mathcal{SC})=\lambda_1(Q_d)^p\mathbb{E}_0[\tau_{Q_d}^p].

The paper proves existence of an extremal in this class, but the assertion that the unit cube is an extremal is stated as a conjecture and is not proved in the supplied text.
