We study anisotropic scaling limits of topological field theories using tropical geometry. The resulting topological field theories are characterized by foliated geometries and are invariant under foliation-preserving gauge transformations.…

This text is devoted to the systematic study of relative properties in the context of Berkovich analytic spaces. We first develop a theory of flatness in this setting. After having shown through a counter-example that naive flatness cannot…

We show that the skeleton of the Deligne-Mumford-Knudsen moduli stack of stable curves is naturally identified with the moduli space of extended tropical curves, and that this is compatible with the "naive" set-theoretic tropicalization…

We review the recent proof of the N.Takahashi's conjecture on genus $0$ Gromov-Witten invariants of $(\mathbb{P}^2, E)$, where $E$ is a smooth cubic curve in the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. The main idea is the use of the…

This is the second of two papers but has been written so as to have minimal dependence on the first paper (which is also on this archive). Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete…

We prove a continuity result for the fibers of the Berkovich analytification of a complex algebraic variety with respect to the the maximum of the Archimedean norm and the trivial norm. As a consequence, we obtain generalizations of a…

To quantify the geometric expressivity of transformers, we introduce a tropical geometry framework to characterize their exact spatial partitioning capabilities. By modeling self-attention as a vector-valued tropical rational map, we prove…

This paper initiates a research program that seeks to recover algebro-geometric Galois representations from combinatorial data. We study tropicalizations equipped with symmetries coming from the Galois-action present on the lattice of…

Let G be a real form of a complex reductive group. Suppose that we are given involutions \sigma and \theta of G. Let H=G^\sigma denote the fixed group of \sigma and let K=G^\theta denote the fixed group of \theta. We are interested in…

We construct a modular desingularisation of $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{2,n}(\mathbb{P}^r,d)^{\text{main}}$. The geometry of Gorenstein singularities of genus two leads us to consider maps from prestable admissible covers: with this enhanced…

This work uncovers the tropical analogue for measured laminations of the convex hull construction of decorated Teichmueller theory, namely, it is a study in coordinates of geometric degeneration to a point of Thurston's boundary for…

We express the reduction types of Picard curves in terms of tropical invariants associated to binary quintics. We also give a general framework for tropical invariants associated to group actions on arbitrary varieties. The problem of…

In this article we provide a stack-theoretic framework to study the universal tropical Jacobian over the moduli space of tropical curves. We develop two approaches to the process of tropicalization of the universal compactified Jacobian…

For any arbitrary algebraic curve, we define an infinite sequence of invariants. We study their properties, in particular their variation under a variation of the curve, and their modular properties. We also study their limits when the…
