The polyhedral semistable reduction conjecture
The polyhedral semistable reduction conjecture
Let be a surjective morphism of rational conical polyhedral complexes such that . A projective subdivision replaces the complexes by projective subdivisions inducing a morphism, and a lattice alteration replaces the lattices by compatible sublattices and induces the corresponding morphism. A morphism is semistable when both complexes are nonsingular and, for every cone , one has and . The polyhedral semistable reduction conjecture. There exists a projective subdivision followed by a lattice alteration such that is semistable. This is the combinatorial formulation underlying semistable reduction. The supplied text does not state a resolution status for this formulation; the paper’s introduction says that the corresponding geometric problem is solved for relative dimension at most three.
