The Nikodym dimension conjecture for constant-curvature manifolds

Let (Md,g)(M^d,g) be a Riemannian manifold of dimension dd and constant sectional curvature, and let a Nikodym set be a Borel set whose associated Nikodym enlargement has positive measure for all parameters sufficiently close to 11. Nikodym dimension conjecture. The Hausdorff dimension of a Nikodym set is dd. The conjecture is known in dimension three with constant sectional curvature by the results described in the paper, while the general-dimensional statement remains open.
