Equivalence of Milnor-Hamm tube and sphere fibrations

Let G:(Rm,0)(Rp,0)G:({\mathbb R}^{m},0)\to({\mathbb R}^{p},0) be a nice analytic map germ with m>p2m>p\geq2 and radial discriminant, and suppose that ΨG\Psi_G is ρ\rho-regular. Assume that the Milnor-Hamm tube fibration and the Milnor-Hamm sphere fibration both exist. Equivalence conjecture. The Milnor-Hamm tube fibration and the Milnor-Hamm sphere fibration are equivalent. The equivalence problem concerns whether the two fibrations can be related under these hypotheses; the preceding theorem establishes this when a Milnor vector field exists, while the source notes that existence of such a field is not known without additional conditions, even when SingG={0}{\rm Sing}\,G=\{0\}.
