COMMENTS

Kurz proved the polyomino equivalent of this conjecture as A122133 and abstracts: "In this article we prove a conjecture of Bezdek, Brass and Harborth concerning the maximum volume of the convex hull of any facet-to-facet connected system of n unit hypercubes in the d-dimensional Euclidean space. For d=2 we enumerate the extremal polyominoes and determine the set of possible areas of the convex hull for each n."

FORMULA
|
a(n) = Floor((n^2 + 14*n/3 + 1)/6).
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(10) = 24 because floor((10^2 + 14*10/3 + 1)/6) = floor(24.6111111) = 24.
