Statement

For the least cutoff c(n)c(n) after which every kk occurs as the number of homothetic cubes in a decomposition of the unit nn-cube, is c(n)≫nnc(n) \gg n^n? The Lean proof shows c(n)=o(nn)c(n) = o(n^n) along odd dimensions.

    the conjectured lower bound is disproved; good bounds for c(n) remain open
