We present algorithms for computing zero-dimensional tropical varieties as implemented in OscarZerodimensionalTropicalization.jl. The algorithms include a mathematical workaround for a common practical issue arising when working with…
We use tropical geometry to compute the multidegree and Newton polytope of the hypersurface of a statistical model with two hidden and four observed binary random variables, solving an open question stated by Drton, Sturmfels and Sullivant…
We show how tropical varieties of ideals I over a field K with non-trivial valuation can be traced back to tropical varieties of ideals in R[[t]][x] over some dense subring R in its ring of integers. Moreover, for homogeneous ideals, we…
We introduce tropical complexes, as an enrichment of the dual complex of a degeneration with additional data from non-transverse intersection numbers. We define cycles, divisors, and linear equivalence on tropical complexes, analogous both…
In this paper we present an explicit combinatorial description of a special class of facets of the secondary polytopes of hypersimplices. These facets correspond to polytopal subdivisions called multi-splits. We show a relation between the…
Finding a common factor of two multivariate polynomials with approximate coefficients is a problem in symbolic-numeric computing. Taking a tropical view on this problem leads to efficient preprocessing techniques, applying polyhedral…
An algorithm is designed which decomposes a tropical univariate rational function into a composition of tropical binomials and trinomials. When a function is monotone, the composition consists just of binomials. Similar algorithms are…
We illustrate the use of tropical methods by generalizing a formula due to Abramovich and Bertram, extended later by Vakil. Namely, we exhibit relations between enumerative invariants of the Hirzebruch surfaces $\Sigma_n$ and…
This is a guide on how to create 3d printable models of tropical surfaces, curves, and combinations thereof. It uses Polymake to construct bounded models of the tropical objects, and OpenSCAD to thicken and export them to any common 3D…
This paper presents a unified mathematical framework for inference in graphical models, building on the observation that graphical models are algebraic varieties. From this geometric viewpoint, observations generated from a model are…
We present TropNNC, a framework for compressing neural networks with linear and convolutional layers and ReLU activations using tropical geometry. By representing a network's output as a tropical rational function, TropNNC enables…
We study algebraic and combinatorial aspects of (classical) projections of $m$-dimensional tropical varieties onto $(m+1)$-dimensional planes. Building upon the work of Sturmfels, Tevelev, and Yu on tropical elimination as well as the work…
We define and study the cyclic Bergman fan of a matroid M, which is a simplicial polyhedral fan supported on the tropical linear space T(M) of M and is amenable to computational purposes. It slightly refines the nested set structure on…
In this paper, we compare the compactified Torelli morphism (as defined by V. Alexeev) and the tropical Torelli map (as defined by the author in a joint work with S. Brannetti and M. Melo, and furthered studied by M. Chan). Our aim is…
We consider the question of when points in tropical affine space uniquely determine a tropical hypersurface. We introduce a notion of multiplicity of points so that this question may be meaningful even if some of the points coincide. We…
