We continue, in this second article, the study of the the algebraic tools which play a role in tropical algebra. We especially examine here the polynomial algebras over idempotent semi-fields. this work is motivated by the development of…
Tropical algebraic geometry is the geometry of the tropical semiring $(\mathbb{R},\min,+)$. Its objects are polyhedral cell complexes which behave like complex algebraic varieties. We give an introduction to this theory, with an emphasis on…
We introduce the notions of a commutative square ring $R$ and of a quadratic map between modules over $R$, called $R$-quadratic map. This notion generalizes various notions of quadratic maps between algebraic objects in the literature. We…
We introduce a notion of $R$-quadratic maps between modules over a commutative ring $R$ which generalizes several classical notions arising in linear algebra and group theory. On a given module $M$ such maps are represented by $R$-linear…
Let $R$ be a valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and $2\in R^\times$. We give an elementary proof of the following known result: Two unimodular quadratic forms over $R$ are isometric over $K$ if and only if they are isometric over $R$.…
The objective of this paper is to lay out the algebraic theory of supertropical vector spaces and linear algebra, utilizing the key antisymmetric relation of ``ghost surpasses.''Special attention is paid to the various notions of ``base,''…
In this paper, we study additively indecomposable quadratic forms over real biquadratic and simplest cubic fields. In particular, we show that over these fields, we can always find such a classical form in 2 variables, which differs from…
To a complex reflection arrangement with an invariant multiplicity function one can relate the space of logarithmic vector fields and the space of quasi-invariants, which are both modules over invariant polynomials. We establish a close…
We consider constrained optimization problems defined in the tropical algebra setting on a linearly ordered, algebraically complete (radicable) idempotent semifield (a semiring with idempotent addition and invertible multiplication). The…
We utilize the structure of quasiautomorphic forms over a Hecke triangle group to define a mapping from a quasiautomorphic form to a vector-valued automorphic form (vvaf). This kind of vvaf we call a Hecke vector-form. First we supply a…
Generalizing supertropical algebras, we present a "layered" structure, "sorted" by a semiring which permits varying ghost layers, and indicate how it is more amenable than the "standard" supertropical construction in factorizations of…
The class of semisymmetric quasigroups is determined by the identity $(yx)y=x.$ We prove that the universal multiplication group of a semisymmetric quasigroup $Q$ is free over its underlying set and then specify the point-stabilizers of an…
We study the subgroup structure of the semigroup of finitary tropical matrices under multiplication. We show that every maximal subgroup is isomorphic to the full linear automorphism group of a related tropical polytope, and that each of…
We find a relation between mixed volumes of several polytopes and the convex hull of their union, deducing it from the following fact: the mixed volume of a collection of polytopes only depends on the product of their support functions…
Tropical mathematics often is defined over an ordered cancellative monoid $\tM$, usually taken to be $(\RR, +)$ or $(\QQ, +)$. Although a rich theory has arisen from this viewpoint, cf. [L1], idempotent semirings possess a restricted…
The theory of elliptic modular forms has gained significant momentum from the discovery of relaxed yet well-behaved notions of modularity, such as mock modular forms, higher order modular forms, and iterated Eichler-Shimura integrals.…
Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…
Let $Q$ be an algebraic group and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the index of…
In this article we study support $\tau$-tilting modules, semibricks and more over blocks of group algebras. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, $\tilde{G}$ a finite group and $G$ a normal subgroup of…
If $\rho$ denotes a finite dimensional complex representation of $\textbf{SL}_2(\textbf{Z})$, then it is known that the module $M(\rho)$ of vector valued modular forms for $\rho$ is free and of finite rank over the ring $M$ of scalar…
