Amoeba finite basis does not exist in general

Algebraic Geometry 2014-03-18 v1 Complex Variables

Abstract

We show that the amoeba of a generic complex algebraic variety of codimension 1<r<n1<r<n do not have a finite basis. In other words, it is not the intersection of finitely many hypersurface amoebas. Moreover we give a geometric characterization of the topological boundary of hypersurface amoebas refining an earlier result of F. Schroeter and T. de Wolff \cite{SW-13}.
