Anderson–Klee's principle for objects in a common geometry

About 15 years old · traced to

Let X⊂EnX\subset\mathbb{E}^n be an object, and let X⟨r⟩X\langle r\rangle denote the set of rr-singular points, where an rr-singular point is one whose associated fiber has scheme-theoretic linear span of dimension at least rr. Anderson–Klee's principle. One has

dim⁡X⟨r⟩≤n−r−1.\dim X\langle r\rangle\leq n-r-1.

Here dimension is understood as Hausdorff dimension in convex geometry and algebraic dimension in algebraic geometry. The assertion is known for convex geometry by work of Anderson and Klee, while its algebraic-geometric formulation is presented as conjectural.
