The present paper is a sequel to our work on hybrid geometry of curves and their moduli spaces. We introduce a notion of hybrid Laplacian, formulate a hybrid Poisson equation, and give a mathematical meaning to the convergence both of the…
We describe a method to construct completions of affine spaces into total spaces of $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial terminal Mori fiber spaces over the projective line. As an application we provide families of examples with non-rational,…
The tropicalization of an algebraic variety X is a combinatorial shadow of X, which is sensitive to a closed embedding of X into a toric variety. Given a good embedding, the tropicalization can provide a lot of information about X. We…
Speyer recognized that matroids encode the same data as a special class of tropical linear spaces and Shaw interpreted tropically certain basic matroid constructions; additionally, Frenk developed the perspective of tropical linear spaces…
We introduce the notion of topological hyperbolicity to characterize the largeness of the topological fundamental group of a complex variety. Inspired by the Shafarevich conjecture, we propose to study the topological hyperbolicity of…
In this paper we study general tropical linear spaces locally: For any basis B of the matroid underlying a tropical linear space L, we define the local tropical linear space L_B to be the subcomplex of L consisting of all vectors v that…
We consider the notions of Groebner fan and Newton non-degeneracy for an ideal on a toric variety, extending the two existing notions for ideals on affine spaces. We prove, without assumptions on the characteristic of the base fields, that…
Let $N\subset \RR^{r}$ be a lattice, and let $\deg\colon N \to \CC$ be a piecewise-linear function that is linear on the cones of a complete rational polyhedral fan. Under certain conditions on $\deg$, the data $(N,\deg)$ determines a…
A realisation of a graph in the plane as a bar-joint framework is rigid if there are finitely many other realisations, up to isometries, with the same edge lengths. Each of these finitely-many realisations can be seen as a solution to a…
We develop a novel framework to construct and analyze finite valued, multidimensional mechanisms using tropical convex geometry. We geometrically characterize incentive compatibility using cells in the tropical convex hull of the type set.…
The moduli space of hyperplanes in projective space has a family of geometric and modular compactifications that parametrize stable hyperplane arrangements with respect to a weight vector. Among these, there is a toric compactification that…
We give a characterization of the minimal tropical half-spaces containing a given tropical polyhedron, from which we derive a counter example showing that the number of such minimal half-spaces can be infinite, contradicting some statements…
In dimension 4, we extend the correspondence between compact nonsingular toric varieties and regular fans to a correspondence between almost complex torus manifolds and families of multi-fans in a geometric way, where an (almost) complex…
A variety of codimension $c$ in complex affine space is called positively hyperbolic if the imaginary part of any point in it does not lie in any positive linear subspace of dimension $c$. Positively hyperbolic hypersurfaces are defined by…
Consider a pair consisting of an abstract tropical curve and an effective divisor from the linear system associated to $k$ times the canonical divisor for $k \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$. In this article we give a purely combinatorial criterion…
Describing the combinatorial structure of the tropical complex $C$ of a tropical matroid polytope, we obtain a formula for the coarse types of the maximal cells of $C$. Due to the connection between tropical complexes and resolutions of…
We develop the rudiments of a finite-dimensional representation theory of groups over idempotent semifields by considering linear actions on tropical linear spaces. This can be considered a tropical representation theory, a characteristic…
We prove that if a quasi-tilted algebra is tame, then the associated moduli spaces are products of projective spaces. Together with an earlier result of Chindris this gives a geometric characterization of the tame quasi-tilted algebras.
A consequence of the Folkman-Lawrence topological representation theorem is that the geometric realization of the order complex of the poset of non-zero covectors of a loopless rank $n-1$ oriented matroid on $[n]$ is homeomorphic to an…
Generalizing the concepts of Stanley-Reisner and affine monoid algebras, one can associate to a rational pointed fan the toric face ring. Assuming that this ring is Cohen-Macaulay, the main result of this paper is to characterize the…
