We introduce the notion of tropical area of a tropical curve defined in an open subset of $\mathbb R^n$. We prove that the number of vertices of a tropical curve is bounded by the area of the curve. The approach is totally elementary yet…

Tropical counting tools are useful for many enumerative questions. We count tropical multinodal surfaces using floor plans, looking at the case when two nodes are tropically close together, i.e., unseparated. We generalize tropical floor…

The number of positive solutions of a system of two polynomials in two variables defined in the field of real numbers with a total of five distinct monomials cannot exceed 15. All previously known examples have at most 5 positive solutions.…

In classical geometry, a linear space is a space that is closed under linear combinations. In tropical geometry, it has long been a consensus that tropical varieties defined by valuated matroids are the tropical analogue of linear spaces.…

In this study we extend the concepts of $m$-pluripotential theory to the Riemannian superspace formalism. Since in this setting positive supercurrents and tropical varieties are closely related, we try to understand the relative capacity…

In many areas of applied mathematics and statistics, it is a fundamental problem to find the best representative of a model by optimizing an objective function. This can be done by determining critical points of the objective function…

The main result of this paper is a formula for the limit cycle of a 1-parameter family of subvarieties of a tropical compactification, expressed in terms of tropical intersections. Our theorem generalizes results of…

In this paper we study tropicalization of Grassmannian and linear varieties. In particular, we study the tropical linear spaces cor- responding to the phylogenetic trees. We prove that corresponding to each subtree of the phylogenetic tree…

Given a tropical divisor $D$ in the intersection of two tropical plane curves, we study when it can be realized as the tropicalization of the intersection of two algebraic curves, and give a sufficient condition. We show that under a…

We classify trivalent graphs with 16 vertices and 16 edges that arise from intersecting two quadratic surfaces in tropical 3-space. There are 4,009 such graphs, representing maximally degenerate stable models of elliptic curves realized as…

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…

We prove that if X, X' are closed subschemes of a torus T over a non-Archimedean field K, of complementary codimension and with finite intersection, then the stable tropical intersection along a (possibly positive-dimensional, possibly…

We introduce tropical singular intersection homologies (non-GM and GM) with the tropical coefficients on rational polyhedral spaces using their filtrations. We investigate their fundamental properties. In the non-GM case, we give a…

In this paper we further develop the theory of matrices over the extended tropical semiring. Introducing a notion of tropical linear dependence allows for a natural definition of matrix rank in a sense that coincides with the notions of…

In this paper we initiate the study of tropical Voronoi diagrams. We start out with investigating bisectors of finitely many points with respect to arbitrary polyhedral norms. For this more general scenario we show that bisectors of three…
