The zero-evaluation criterion for Bernstein's second theorem

Let FF be the system of sphere equations, and let F~(t)\widetilde{F}(\mathbf{t}) be the system obtained by zero evaluations of the δ\delta-variables. Zero-evaluation criterion. The conditions of Bernstein's second theorem for the system FF are satisfied if and only if the system F~(t)\widetilde{F}(\mathbf{t}) has solutions for every zero evaluation of the δ\delta-variables. The conjecture is motivated by experimental computations suggesting that checking zero solutions for only one choice of F~(t)\widetilde{F}(\mathbf{t}), rather than all dnd1d^{n-d-1} choices, suffices to verify Bernstein's conditions; no resolution is given in the source.
