It is known that any tropical polytope is the image under the valuation map of ordinary polytopes over the Puiseux series field. The latter polytopes are called lifts of the tropical polytope. We prove that any pure tropical polytope is the…
In many applications it is important to establish if a given topological preordered space has a topology and a preorder which can be recovered from the set of continuous isotone functions. Under antisymmetry this property, also known as…
We study the classical result by Bruijn and Erd\H os regarding the bound on the number of lines determined by a $n$-point configuration in the plane, and in the light of the recently proven Tropical Sylvester-Gallai theorem, come up with a…
This paper studies hidden convexity properties associated with constrained optimization problems over the set of rotation matrices $\text{SO}(n)$. Such problems are nonconvex due to the constraint $X \in \text{SO}(n)$. Nonetheless, we show…
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 study tropical Dolbeault cohomology for Berkovich analytic spaces, as defined by Chambert-Loir and Ducros. We provide a construction that lets us pull back classes in tropical cohomology to classes in tropical Dolbeault cohomology as…
Tropical Geometry and Mathematical Morphology share the same max-plus and min-plus semiring arithmetic and matrix algebra. In this chapter we summarize some of their main ideas and common (geometric and algebraic) structure, generalize and…
We develop techniques to convexify a set that is invariant under permutation and/or change of sign of variables and discuss applications of these results. First, we convexify the intersection of the unit ball of a permutation and…
Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemann surfaces. For a fixed elliptic target, Hurwitz numbers are intimately related to mirror symmetry following work of Dijkgraaf. In recent work of Chapuy and Dolega a new variant of…
The principle of inclusion-exclusion is applied to subsets of maximal covectors contained in halfspaces of a simple oriented matroid and to convex subsets of its ground set for enumerating tope committees.
Tropical polyhedra are known to be representable externally, as intersections of finitely many tropical half-spaces. However, unlike in the classical case, the extreme rays of their polar cones provide external representations containing in…
We construct a logarithmic version of the Hilbert scheme, and more generally the Quot scheme, of a simple normal crossings pair. The logarithmic Quot space admits a natural tropicalisation called the space of tropical supports, which is a…
We show that, once translated to the dual setting of convex triangulations of lattice polytopes, results and methods from previous tropical works by Arnal-Renaudineau-Shaw, Renaudineau-Shaw, Renaudineau-Rau-Shaw, and Jell-Rau-Shaw extend to…
An arrangement of finitely many tropical hyperplanes in the tropical torus leads to a notion of `type' data for points, with the underlying unlabeled arrangement giving rise to `coarse type'. It is shown that the decomposition of the…
Plane partitions in the totally symmetric self-complementary symmetry class (TSSCPP) are known to be equinumerous with n x n alternating sign matrices, but no explicit bijection is known. In this paper, we give a bijection from these plane…
Stanley introduced in 1986 the order polytope and the chain polytope for a given finite poset. These polytopes contain much information about the poset and have given rise to important examples in polyhedral geometry. In 1993, Reiner…
We prove a strengthened form of convexity for operator monotone decreasing positive functions defined on the positive real numbers. This extends Ando and Hiai's work to allow arbitrary positive maps instead of states (or the identity map),…
We study algebraic and combinatorial aspects of (classical) projections of $m$-dimensional tropical varieties onto $(m+1)$-dimensional planes. Building upon the work of Sturmfels, Tevelev, and Yu on tropical elimination as well as the work…
This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…
We study the max-plus or tropical analogue of the notion of polar: the polar of a cone represents the set of linear inequalities satisfied by its elements. We establish an analogue of the bipolar theorem, which characterizes all the…
