Connectivity of tropicalizations

Algebraic Geometry 2018-06-18 v1

Abstract

We show that the tropicalization of an irreducible variety over a complete or algebraically closed valued field is connected through codimension 1, giving an affirmative answer in all characteristics to a question posed by Einsiedler, Lind, and Thomas in 2003.
