Thin corner-cycle conjecture for free globular omega-categories

Let C\mathcal{C} be a free globular ω\omega-category. For a natural number nn, let xiωCat(In,C)±x_i\in\omega\operatorname{Cat}(I^n,\mathcal{C})^\pm and let λi\lambda_i be natural numbers indexed by a set II. Suppose that xi(0n)x_i(0_n) has dimension strictly lower than nn for every ii. Thin corner-cycle conjecture. The linear combination

iλixi\sum_i\lambda_i x_i

is a boundary if and only if it is a cycle. This would characterize boundaries among the thin elements of the corner complexes; the source gives no proof or resolution.
