Ardila–Billey conjecture on spread-out simplices

About 14 years old · traced to

Let Δd−1\Delta_{d-1} be the standard (d−1)(d-1)-simplex, and let nΔd−1n\Delta_{d-1} denote its dilation by nn. A unit simplex is a simplex of normalized volume one in nΔd−1n\Delta_{d-1}, and a collection of such simplices is spread out when it satisfies the spread-out condition of Ardila and Billey. Spread-out simplices conjecture. A collection of nn unit simplices in nΔd−1n\Delta_{d-1} can be extended to a tiling if and only if it is spread out. This characterizes exactly which collections of unit simplices occur as part of a tiling; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
