Proof.

The assumptions yield two charts for the ℤ\mathbb{Z}-affine structure on BB: the ℤ\mathbb{Z}-affine subsets B′B^{\prime} and τ1\tau_{1}. These two charts are glued along B′∩τ1B^{\prime}\cap\tau_{1} which is a simplex and thus has no non-trivial ℤ\mathbb{Z}-automorphisms preserving the vertices, hence the affine structure on BB is uniquely determined. The set B′⊂ℝnB^{\prime}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n} can be obtained as the result of the same star subdivisions of a subset B~⊂ℝn\tilde{B}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}, and uniqueness of the affine structure ensures a ℤ\mathbb{Z}-affine isomorphism B≃B~B\simeq\tilde{B}. ∎
