The tropical semiring is an algebraic system with addition ``$\max$'' and multiplication ``$+$''. As well as in conventional algebra, linear programming in the tropical semiring has been developed. In this study, we introduce a new type of…

The max-plus algebra $\mathbb{R}\cup \{-\infty \}$ is a semiring with the two operations: addition $a \oplus b := \max(a,b)$ and multiplication $a \otimes b := a + b$. Roots of the characteristic polynomial of a max-plus matrix are called…

The tropical semifield, i.e., the real numbers enhanced by the operations of addition and maximum, serves as a base of tropical mathematics. Addition is an abelian group operation, whereas the maximum defines an idempotent semigroup…

Towards building tropical analogues of adic spaces, we study certain spaces of prime congruences as a topological semiring replacement for the space of continuous valuations on a topological ring. This requires building the theory of…
