    AnnotationMotivated by a well-known result in extremal set theory, due to Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn and Paul Erdős, we consider curves in the unit n-cube [0 , 1] n of the form A= { (x, f1(x) , … , fn - 2(x) , α) : x∈ [0 , 1] } , where α is a fixed real number in [0,1] and f1, … , fn - 2 are injective measurable functions from [0,1] to [0,1]. We refer to such a curve A as an n-de Bruijn–Erdős-set. Under the additional assumption that all functions fi, i= 1 , … , n- 2 , are piecewise monotone, we show that the Hausdorff dimension of A is at most 1 as well as that its 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure is at most n-1. Moreover, via a walk along devil’s staircases, we construct a piecewise monotone n-de Bruijn–Erdős-set whose 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure equals n-1.
