Conjecture on codimension-one affine singularities

About 22 years old · traced to

Assume that the singular set of the limiting space has a stratification Bsing=Bn−1sing∪B≤n−2singB^{sing}=B^{sing}_{n-1}\cup B^{sing}_{\le n-2}, where Bn−1singB^{sing}_{n-1} consists of the (n−1)(n-1)-dimensional strata. Conjecture on codimension-one affine singularities. Near each point of Bn−1singB^{sing}_{n-1}, the Z{\bf Z}-affine structure is modeled on a finite book ⋃i∈IRn−1×R≥0\bigcup_{i\in I}{\bf R}^{n-1}\times{\bf R}_{\ge0} with common spine Rn−1×{0}{\bf R}^{n-1}\times\{0\}, and the affine structure on the smooth part ⨆i∈IRn−1×R>0\bigsqcup_{i\in I}{\bf R}^{n-1}\times{\bf R}_{>0} is the natural one. This is a proposed local model for codimension-one singularities of the affine structure; it is presented among the authors’ desired properties rather than as an established theorem.
