From deformation theory to tropical geometry

Algebraic Geometry 2025-06-17 v1

Abstract

This is a write-up of the author's invited talk at the Eighth International Congress of Chinese Mathematicians (ICCM) held at Beijing in June 2019. We give a survey on joint works with Naichung Conan Leung and Ziming Nikolas Ma where we study how tropical objects arise from asymptotic analysis of the Maurer-Cartan equation for deformation of complex structures on a semi-flat Calabi-Yau manifold.
