Proof.

We may assume that K′K^{\prime} is Galois over KK. Let dd be the ramification index of K′K^{\prime} over KK. We will prove that

wtω′​(y)=d⋅wtω​(π⁡(y))−d+1\mathrm{wt}_{\omega^{\prime}}(y)=d\cdot\mathrm{wt}_{\omega}(\pi(y))-d+1

for every divisorial point yy on (Y′)an(Y^{\prime})^{\mathrm{an}} (see [MN13, 2.4.10] for the notion of divisorial point). This immediately implies the statement in the lemma, since Sk⁡(X,ω)\mathrm{Sk}(X,\omega) is the closure of the set of divisorial points where the weight function reaches its minimal value [MN13, 4.5.1].

We denote by R′R^{\prime} the integral closure of RR in K′K^{\prime}. Let 𝒴′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime} be a regular separated R′R^{\prime}-scheme of finite type with irreducible special fiber 𝒴k′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime}_{k}, endowed with an isomorphism of K′K^{\prime}-schemes 𝒴K′′→Y′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime}_{K^{\prime}}\to Y^{\prime}. Let yy be the unique point in red𝒴′−1​(ξ)\mathrm{red}_{\mathscr{Y}^{\prime}}^{-1}(\xi), where ξ\xi denotes the generic point of 𝒴k′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime}_{k}. Removing a closed subset of 𝒴k′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime}_{k} if necessary, we can find a regular separated RR-scheme of finite type 𝒴\mathscr{Y} and an isomorphism 𝒴K→Y\mathscr{Y}_{K}\to Y such that 𝒴′\mathscr{Y}^{\prime} is an open subscheme of the normalization of 𝒴×RR′\mathscr{Y}\times_{R}R^{\prime}. Then red𝒴​(π​(y))\mathrm{red}_{\mathscr{Y}}(\pi(y)) is a generic point of 𝒴k\mathscr{Y}_{k}.

If we use the notations from (3.2) and denote by (S′)+(S^{\prime})^{+} the log scheme associated to R′∖{0}→R′R^{\prime}\setminus\{0\}\to R^{\prime}, then the (S′)+(S^{\prime})^{+}-log scheme (𝒴′)+(\mathscr{Y}^{\prime})^{+} is isomorphic to an open log subscheme of the f​sfs base change of 𝒴+\mathscr{Y}^{+} from S+S^{+} to (S′)+(S^{\prime})^{+}. Since log differentials are compatible with f​sfs base change, we can deduce from the description of the weight function in (3.2) that

wtω′​(y)=d⋅wtω​(π⁡(y))−d+1\mathrm{wt}_{\omega^{\prime}}(y)=d\cdot\mathrm{wt}_{\omega}(\pi(y))-d+1

(the scaling factor dd is caused by the renormalization of the discrete valuation on K′K^{\prime}). ∎
