Proof of Lemma 6.4.
We write with rational and
. Set for .
For let
be the model function induced by the vertical divisor
. This function is affine on each face of
and satisfies for all .
Since for we get:
|
|
|
By Theorem 3.11,
intersects iff .
We thus have
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
in , where we have set .
Recall also that is affine on each segment , so that
for .
We can now compute in
|
|
|
The last equality follows from the fact that is affine on the simplex
of so that
.
This concludes the proof.
