The fiberedness conjecture for cyclic tilings

From papers

Let AB=ZMA\oplus B=\mathbb{Z}_M be a tiling, where M=j=1KpjnjM=\prod_{j=1}^K p_j^{n_j}. Say that a set is M/piαiM/p_i^{\alpha_i}-fibered in the pip_i direction when it has the corresponding fibered structure on that scale.

Fiberedness conjecture. For every ii there exists 1αi<ni1\leq\alpha_i<n_i such that either AA or BB is M/piαiM/p_i^{\alpha_i}-fibered in the pip_i direction. In particular, if MM has 33 prime factors, ΦMA\Phi_M\mid A, and there exists a D(M)D(M) grid Λ\Lambda such that AΛA\cap\Lambda is not fibered in any direction, then BB is fibered in all directions on some scale.

The conjecture is motivated by the role of fibering in the paper's tiling arguments and by the behavior of Szabó-type examples. The source presents it as an unresolved structural assertion.
