Abstract

Let ff be an ordinary polynomial in C[z1,...,zn]\mathbb{C}[z_1,..., z_n] with no negative exponents and with no factor of the form z1α1...znαnz_1^{\alpha_1}... z_n^{\alpha_n} where αi\alpha_i are non zero natural integer. If we assume in addicting that ff is maximally sparse polynomial (that its support is equal to the set of vertices of its Newton polytope), then a complement component of the amoeba Af\mathscr{A}_f in Rn\mathbb{R}^n of the algebraic hypersurface Vf(C)nV_f\subset (\mathbb{C}^*)^n defined by ff, has order lying in the support of ff, which means that Af\mathscr{A}_f is solid. This gives an affirmative answer to Passare and Rullg\aa rd question in [PR2-01].
