Dickenstein–Nill rational codegree conjecture for lattice polytopes

From papers

Let PP be an nn-dimensional lattice polytope, and let μ(P)\mu(P) denote its Q\mathbb Q-codegree. A Cayley sum is a polytope obtained by assembling lattice polytopes along the vertices of a simplex.

Dickenstein–Nill rational codegree conjecture. If

μ(P)>n+12,\mu(P)>\frac{n+1}{2},

then PP decomposes as a Cayley sum of lattice polytopes of dimension at most

2(n+1μ(P)).\left\lfloor 2\bigl(n+1-\mu(P)\bigr)\right\rfloor.

This reformulation extends the integral codegree conjecture to the rational setting. The source presents it as open, while noting results in several special cases.
