Subpolynomial relative asymptotic dimension of real hyperbolic space

Let dd be the dimension of real hyperbolic space Hd\mathbb{H}^d. Let o(poly(d))o(\operatorname{poly}(d)) denote the family of non-decreasing functions ff such that

limtf(t)td=0.\lim_{t\to\infty}\frac{f(t)}{t^d}=0.

Subpolynomial asymptotic-dimension conjecture.

asdimo(poly(d))(Hd)=d.\operatorname{asdim}_{o(\operatorname{poly}(d))}(\mathbb{H}^d)=d.

The paper describes this as an optimality statement for a preceding theorem. A weaker equality with poly(d1)\operatorname{poly}(d-1) would already have consequences for excluding certain regular maps from Hd\mathbb{H}^d to products involving trees, but the conjectured subpolynomial statement itself is left unresolved in the supplied text.
