you can activate more than one 'Dimension Wall' in response to an attack, but the effect doesn't stack, and the amount of damage redirected is not doubled.
if you activate 'Magic Cylinder' in a chain with 'Dimension Wall' (or vice-versa), the effect of 'Dimension Wall' is not applied, as you won't take any damage to be redirected.

Two Dimension Walls (following the logic of other cards that affect/modify Battle Damage) would not stack. They'd only take the Battle Damage once.
Magic Cylinder, however is not redirected Battle Damage, but Effect Damage. So a Dimension Wall and a Magic Cylinder activated in response to the same attack would inflict the Battle Damage you would have taken and the ATK of the attacking monster, depending on the order activated.

I'm gonna agree with cropz on this one. I don't see how "Dimension Wall" would be able to deal any damage to the opponent if the attack was negated by "Magic Cylinder". You never reach the Damage Step in order to receive the excess Battle Damage.
IMO this is a simple question of card functionality.
No matter what chain link Magic Cylinder is in with Dimension Wall (even if there are several chains in the Chain Block), it still won't redirect any damage because the entire attack was negated by Magic Cylinder in some point of the Chain Block.

This is why I don't bother editing my posts. So let me just correct myself (hopefully) before anybody else does.
If you chain Dimension Wall to a Magic Cylinder, Diension Wall resolves and waits around for Damage Calculation to inflict damage. Then Cylinder resolves and negates the attack and inflicts Effect Damage, so no Damage Calculation is ever calculated for Dimension Wall to inflict.
If you chain Magic Cylinder to Dimension Wall, Magic Cylinder resloves first and negates the attack, then Dimesion Wall resolves and we are faced with the same scenario as above.

Since I have these two small coins I'm just going to say if Dimension Wall is activated, Magic Cylinder can't be because Dimension Wall actvaties in the Damage Step.
Dimension Wall can't activate in the Damage Step. Read the first sentence of Dimension Wall's text. Its activation timing is the same as Magic Cylinder, Mirror Force, Sakuretsu Armor, Widespread Ruin, etc.etc.Absird said:
Another words, Dimension Wall activates in response to your opponent declaring a monster attack. This happens to be the Battle Step.
Dimension Wall cannot be activated in the Damage Step. But:
The keyword being "applied". Dimension Wall is not one of those exceptional Normal Traps that can be activated in the Damage Step. But its effect lingers and applies during Damage Calculation.
