The Keel–Yu mirror detropicalization conjecture

Let UU be an affine log-Calabi–Yau variety containing an open torus. Let sk(U)\mathrm{sk}(U) denote its Kontsevich–Soibelman tropical skeleton, and let M\mathcal{M} and N\mathcal{N} be polyptych lattices. A detropicalization of a polyptych lattice M\mathcal{M} is a pair (AM,v:AMSM)(\mathcal{A}_{\mathcal{M}},\mathfrak{v}:\mathcal{A}_{\mathcal{M}}\to\mathcal{S}_{\mathcal{M}}) as in the paper; a strict dual pair is a pair of polyptych lattices satisfying the paper's strict-duality condition, and a chart-Gorenstein-Fano PL polytope is a PL polytope with the stated chart-Gorenstein-Fano property.

Keel–Yu mirror detropicalization conjecture. (1) In the presence of multiple open tori, the integral points of sk(U)\mathrm{sk}(U) can be equipped with the structure of a polyptych lattice M\mathcal{M}. Moreover, the Keel–Yu mirror algebra can be realized as a detropicalization of M\mathcal{M}. (2) In particular, if M\mathcal{M} and N\mathcal{N} are a strict dual pair of polyptych lattices, and N\mathcal{N} admits a detropicalization and a chart-Gorenstein-Fano PL polytope P\mathcal{P}, then the coordinate ring of the Keel–Yu mirror to Spec(AN)\operatorname{Spec}(\mathcal{A}_{\mathcal{N}}) is a detropicalization of M\mathcal{M}.

This is presented as a suspected statement connecting the paper's polyptych-lattice detropicalizations with log-Calabi–Yau mirror constructions of Keel and Yu. The precise hypotheses under which the skeleton acquires the required polyptych structure and the mirror algebra realizes the detropicalization remain open.
