Pick a sequence of uniform points on the $d$-dimensional sphere. Then, link the $n$th point to its closest one that arrives in the past. This constructs a labelled tree called the nearest neighbour tree on the $d$-dimensional sphere. These…

This paper generalises the homeomorphism theorem behind Viro's combinatorial patchworking of hypersurfaces in toric varieties to arbitrary codimension using tropical geometry. We first define the patchwork of a polyhedral space equipped…

One of the themes in algebraic geometry is the study of the relation between the ``topology'' of a smooth projective variety and a (``general'') hyperplane section. Recent results of Nori produce cohomological evidence for a conjecture that…

Let $T$ be an algebraic torus over an algebraically closed field, let $X$ be a smooth closed subvariety of a $T$-toric variety such that $U = X \cap T$ is not empty, and let $\mathscr{L}(X)$ be the arc scheme of $X$. We define a…

In this article we define a natural tropicalization procedure for closed subsets of log-regular varieties in the case of constant coefficients and study its basic properties. This framework allows us to generalize some of Tevelev's results…

We define the tropical moduli space of covers of a tropical line in the plane as weighted abstract polyhedral complex, and the tropical branch map recording the images of the simple ramifications. Our main result is the invariance of the…

The connected tree-width of a graph is the minimum width of a tree-decomposition whose parts induce connected subgraphs. Long cycles are examples of graphs that have small tree-width but large connected tree-width. We show that a graph has…

Let $I$ be an ideal of the ring of Laurent polynomials $K[x_1^{\pm1},\ldots,x_n^{\pm1}]$ with coefficients in a real-valued field $(K,v)$. The fundamental theorem of tropical algebraic geometry states the equality…

The infinite reduction of couplings is a tool to consistently renormalize a wide class of non-renormalizable theories with a reduced, eventually finite, set of independent couplings, and classify the non-renormalizable interactions. Several…

In this note we propose the generalization of the notion of a holomorphic contact structure on a manifold (smooth variety) to varieties with rational singularities and prove basic properties of such objects. Natural examples of singular…

A hypertree, or $\mathbb{Q}$-acyclic complex, is a higher-dimensional analogue of a tree. We study random $2$-dimensional hypertrees according to the determinantal measure suggested by Lyons. We are especially interested in their…

Tropical roots of tropical polynomials have been previously studied and used to localize roots of classical polynomials and eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. We extend the theory of tropical roots from tropical polynomials to tropical…

We prove Barth-type connectedness results for low-codimension smooth subvarieties with good numerical properties inside certain "easy" ambient spaces (such as homogeneous varieties, or spherical varieties). The argument employs some basics…

Geometry of networks endowed with a causal structure is discussed using the conventional framework of equilibrium statistical mechanics. The popular growing network models appear as particular causal models. We focus on a class of tree…

Given the tropicalization of a complex subvariety of the torus, we define a morphism between the tropical cohomology and the rational cohomology of their respective tropical compactifications. We say that the subvariety of the torus is…

We develop a version of Mikhalkin's lattice path algorithm for projective hypersurfaces of arbitrary degree and dimension, which enumerates singular tropical hypersurfaces passing through appropriate configuration of points. By proving a…

To any tree on $n$ vertices we associate an $n$-dimensional Lotka-Volterra system with $3n-2$ parameters and, for generic values of the parameters, prove it is superintegrable, i.e. it admits $n-1$ functionally independent integrals. We…

We propose a definition of tropical linear series that isolates some of the essential combinatorial properties of tropicalizations of not-necessarily-complete linear series on algebraic curves. The definition combines the Baker-Norine…

In this paper, we introduce ordered blueprints and ordered blue schemes, which serve as a common language for the different approaches to tropicalizations and which enhances tropical varieties with a schematic structure. As an abstract…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^n_k$ be a quasi-projective variety that is $F$-rational and $F$-pure. We prove that if $H \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n_k$ is a general hyperplane,…
