The cyclic-polytope conjecture for unique rainbow simplices

Let KK be a triangulation of the dd-simplex Δd\Delta^d associated with a dd-dimensional cyclic polytope, meaning that it is obtained from the boundary of the polytope by removing a facet and projecting the remaining boundary into the convex hull of the vertex set of that facet. Problem~ asks whether there is a Sperner labelling of KK with a unique rainbow dd-simplex. Cyclic-polytope conjecture. Problem~ has an affirmative answer if KK is a triangulation of Δd\Delta^d associated with a dd-dimensional cyclic polytope. The question concerns whether triangulations of this special, well-understood type can have the unique-rainbow-simplex property in higher dimensions; the supplied text gives no resolution.
