Dimensionality of tropical Chow groups

Algebraic Geometry 2024-08-23 v1

Abstract

We show that the existence of non-zero tropical forms of degree at least two implies that the tropical Chow group of points of a tropical affine manifold is infinite-dimensional. This can be seen as a tropical analog of classical results of Mumford and Roitman for Chow groups of smooth (complex) projective algebraic varieties. We also show that the existence of tropical 1-forms on tropical surfaces does not imply infinite dimensionality by considering the case of a tropical Klein bottle.
