This book provides a self-contained introduction to the topology and geometry of surfaces and three-manifolds. The main goal is to describe Thurston's geometrisation of three-manifolds, proved by Perelman in 2002. The book is divided into…

We develop a number of general techniques for comparing analytifications and tropicalizations of algebraic varieties. Our basic results include a projection formula for tropical multiplicities and a generalization of the Sturmfels-Tevelev…

We consider the question of when points in tropical affine space uniquely determine a tropical hypersurface. We introduce a notion of multiplicity of points so that this question may be meaningful even if some of the points coincide. We…

The theory of abstract convexity, also known as convexity without linearity, is an extension of the classical convex analysis. There are a number of remarkable results, mostly concerning duality, and some numerical methods, however, this…

We use the motivic obstruction to stable rationality introduced by Shinder and the first-named author to establish several new classes of stably irrational hypersurfaces and complete intersections. In particular, we show that very general…

This paper is devoted to the bounding and computation of the dimension of deformation spaces of tropical curves and hypersurfaces. This characteristic is interesting in light of the fact that it often coincides with the dimension of…

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…

We discuss the tropical analogues of several basic questions of convex duality. In particular, the polar of a tropical polyhedral cone represents the set of linear inequalities that its elements satisfy. We characterize the extreme rays of…

We propose to study the tropical geometry specifically arising from convergent Hahn series in multiple indeterminates. One application is a new view on stable intersections of tropical hypersurfaces. Another one is perturbations of rank one…

An unconstrained optimization problem is formulated in terms of tropical mathematics to minimize a functional that is defined on a vector set by a matrix and calculated through multiplicative conjugate transposition. For some particular…

We examine the incidence geometry of lines in the tropical plane. We prove tropical analogs of the Sylvester-Gallai and Motzkin-Rabin theorems in classical incidence geometry. This study leads naturally to a discussion of the realizability…

In this paper we use the connections between tropical algebraic geometry and rigid analytic geometry in order to prove two main results. We use tropical methods to prove a theorem about the Newton polygon for convergent power series in…

Tropical geometry is used to develop a new approach to the theory of discriminants and resultants in the sense of Gel'fand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky. The tropical A-discriminant, which is the tropicalization of the dual variety of the…

Since the first famous correspondence theorem by Mikhalkin appeared in 2005, tropical geometry has allowed a parallel treatment of real and complex counting problems. A prime example are the genus 0 Gromov-Witten invariants of the plane…

In this paper, is introduced a new proposal of resolvent for equilibrium problems in terms of the Busemann's function. A great advantage of this new proposal is that, in addition to be a natural extension of the proposal in the linear…

Tropical manifolds are polyhedral complexes enhanced with certain kind of affine structure. This structure manifests itself through a particular cohomology class which we call the eigenwave of a tropical manifold. Other wave classes of…

We present a generalization of the notion of neighborliness to non-polyhedral convex cones. Although a definition of neighborliness is available in the non-polyhedral case in the literature, it is fairly restrictive as it requires all the…

We define multidimensional tropical series, i.e. piecewise linear functions which are tropical polynomials locally but may contain an infinite number of monomials. Tropical series appeared in the study of the growth of pluriharmonic…

We establish first parts of a tropical intersection theory. Namely, we define cycles, Cartier divisors and intersection products between these two (without passing to rational equivalence) and discuss push-forward and pull-back. We do this…

We define the tropical Tevelev degrees, $\mathsf{Tev}_g^{trop}$, as the degree of a natural finite morphism between certain tropical moduli spaces, in analogy to the algebraic case. We develop an explicit combinatorial construction that…
