Proof.

If s∈Δ𝒳s\in\Delta_{\mathcal{X}} is a rational point then Theorem 3.11 yields a vertical blow-up 𝒳′\mathcal{X}^{\prime} such that emb𝒳′⁡(s)=xE′\emb_{\mathcal{X}^{\prime}}(s)=x_{E^{\prime}} for some irreducible component E′E^{\prime} of 𝒳′\mathcal{X}^{\prime}. Conversely, it emb𝒳⁡(s)\emb_{\mathcal{X}}(s) is a divisorial point then the corresponding valuation takes rational values on the local equations of the components of 𝒳0\mathcal{X}_{0}, which shows that ss is a rational point of Δ𝒳\Delta_{\mathcal{X}}. ∎
