Abstract
It is proved that the length of the longest possible minimum rectilinear Steiner tree of n points in the unit d-cube is asymptotic to Βdn d-1/d, where Βd. In addition to replicating Chung and Graham's exact determination of Β2 = 1, this generalization yields tight new bounds such as 1 ≤ Β3 < 1.191 and 1 < Β4 < √2.
