Denef–Sargos instability conjecture for oscillating integrals

Let ff be a real analytic germ at 0Rn0\in\mathbb{R}^{n} with Newton polyhedron, and let τ0\tau_{0} be the face determining the relevant pole and coefficient μ(φ)\mu(\varphi) of the associated oscillating integral. The face τ0\tau_{0} is unstable when it has the instability property defined in the paper. Denef–Sargos instability conjecture. If τ0\tau_{0} is unstable, then μ(φ)=0\mu(\varphi)=0 for any C\mathcal{C}^{\infty}-function φ\varphi with support in a sufficiently small neighbourhood of 00 in Rn\mathbb{R}^{n}. This is the conjecture of Denef and Sargos that the paper proves; the converse implication is stated separately as another open conjecture.
