The map which takes a square matrix $A$ to its polytrope is piecewise linear. We show that cones of linearity of this map form a polytopal fan partition of $\{R}^{n \times n}$, whose face lattice is anti-isomorphic to the lattice of…

We study the Bergman complex B(M) of a matroid M: a polyhedral complex which arises in algebraic geometry, but which we describe purely combinatorially. We prove that a natural subdivision of the Bergman complex of M is a geometric…

We give a rigorous definition of tropical fans (the "local building blocks for tropical varieties") and their morphisms. For such a morphism of tropical fans of the same dimension we show that the number of inverse images (counted with…

We study representations of tropical linear spaces as intersections of tropical hyperplanes of circuits. For several classes of matroids, we describe minimal tropical bases. We also show that every realizable tropical linear space has a…

Let E be a plane in an algebraic torus over an algebraically closed field. Given a balanced 1-dimensional fan C in the tropicalization of E, i.e. in the Bergman fan of the corresponding matroid, we give a complete algorithmic answer to the…

The tropical Stiefel map associates to a tropical matrix A its tropical Pluecker vector of maximal minors, and thus a tropical linear space L(A). We call the L(A)s obtained in this way Stiefel tropical linear spaces. We prove that they are…

We consider a binary classifier defined as the sign of a tropical rational function, that is, as the difference of two convex piecewise linear functions. The parameter space of ReLU neural networks is contained as a semialgebraic set inside…

Given a matroid $M$ one can define its Orlik-Solomon algebra $OS(M)$ and the Bergman fan $\Sigma_0(M)$. On the other hand to any rational polyhedral fan $\Sigma$ one can associate its tropical homology and cohomology groups…

We relate some features of Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications to tropical geometry. If G is a semisimple group over a suitable non-Archimedean field, the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of G and in some of…

In this paper we study algorithmic aspects of tropical intersection theory. We analyse how divisors and intersection products on tropical cycles can actually be computed using polyhedral geometry. The main focus of this paper is the study…

The space T_{d,n} of n tropically collinear points in a fixed tropical projective space TP^{d-1} is equivalent to the tropicalization of the determinantal variety of matrices of rank at most 2, which consists of real d x n matrices of…

We describe a new method for computing tropical linear spaces and more general duals of polyhedral subdivisions. It is based on Ganter's algorithm (1984) for finite closure systems.

The tropicalization of a linear space over a non-archimedean field is a tropical linear space. In this paper, we present a method for computing the tropicalization of any lattice over a valuation ring. The resulting tropical semimodule is…

We generalise the notion of Gr\"obner fan to ideals in R[[t]][x_1,...,x_n] for certain classes of coefficient rings R and give a constructive proof that the Gr\"obner fan is a rational polyhedral fan. For this we introduce the notion of…
