In this paper, the tropical Nevanlinna theory is extended for piecewise polynomial continuous functions. By constructing the $n$-th Poisson-Jensen formula, the $n$-th tropical counting, proximity, and characteristic functions are…
Given an algebraic variety defined over a discrete valuation field and a skeleton of its Berkovich analytification, the tropicalization process transforms function field of the variety to a semifield of tropical functions on the skeleton.…
We present a version of the tropical Nevanlinna theory for real-valued, continuous, piecewise linear functions on the real line. In particular, a tropical version of the second main theorem is proved. Applications to some ultra-discrete…
We show that the asymptotic behavior of the two main competing notions of rank of a linear series on a tropical curve is governed by asymptotic invariants, closely paralleling the theory of volumes in algebraic geometry. We introduce and…
For a closed minimal submanifold $f:M^n\looparrowright \mathbb{S}^{N}$ in the unit sphere $(n<N)$, we prove $${\rm Vol}(M^n) \geq\frac{n+1}{n+2}\int_{M}\left( 1+\varphi_{p}^2\right) \geq m{\rm Vol}(\mathbb{S}^{n}),$$ where…
Two rational functions $f,g\in\Bbb F_q(X)$ are said to be {\em equivalent} if there exist $\phi,\psi\in\Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g=\phi\circ f\circ\psi$. We give an explicit formula for the number of equivalence classes of…
A tropical (or min-plus) semiring is a set $\mathbb{Z}$ (or $\mathbb{Z \cup \{\infty\}}$) endowed with two operations: $\oplus$, which is just usual minimum, and $\odot$, which is usual addition. In tropical algebra the vector $x$ is a…
Polytropes are both ordinary and tropical polytopes. We show that tropical types of polytropes in $\mathbb{TP}^{n-1}$ are in bijection with cones of a certain Gr\"{o}bner fan $\mathcal{GF}_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n^2 - n}$ restricted to a small…
We introduce a theory of volume polynomials and corresponding duality algebras of multi-fans. Any complete simplicial multi-fan $\Delta$ determines a volume polynomial $V_\Delta$ whose values are the volumes of multi-polytopes based on…
Questions concerning small fractional parts of polynomials and pseudo-polynomials have a long history in analytic number theory. In this paper, we improve on earlier work by Madritsch and Tichy. In particular, let $f=P+\phi$ where $P$ is a…
We present simple compact proofs of the strong and weak duality theorems of tropical linear programming. It follows that there is no duality gap for a pair of tropical primal-dual problems. This result together with known properties of…
In this paper we introduce a family of rational approximations of the reciprocal of a $\phi$-function involved in the explicit solutions of certain linear differential equations, as well as in integration schemes evolving on manifolds. The…
We introduce the tropical $F$-polynomial $f_M$ of a quiver representation $M$. We study its interplay with the general presentation for any finite-dimensional basic algebra. We give an interpretation of evaluating $f_M$ at a weight vector.…
We find a relation between mixed volumes of several polytopes and the convex hull of their union, deducing it from the following fact: the mixed volume of a collection of polytopes only depends on the product of their support functions…
The tropical rank of a semimodule of rational functions on a metric graph mirrors the concept of rank in linear algebra. Defined in terms of the maximal number of tropically independent elements within the semimodule, this quantity has…
We first develop the local theory of functions on $\mathbb R^n$ defined by tropical Laurent polynomials. We study the structure of the semiring of functions, where two functions are identified when they coincide on a neighborhood of a fixed…
We consider discrete best approximation problems in the setting of tropical algebra, which is concerned with the theory and application of algebraic systems with idempotent operations. Given a set of input--output pairs of an unknown…
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…
Tropical toric varieties are partial compactifications of finite dimensional real vector spaces associated with rational polyhedral fans. We introduce plurisubharmonic functions and a Bedford--Taylor product for Lagerberg currents on open…
We investigate the complexity of counting the number of integer points in tropical polytopes, and the complexity of calculating their volume. We study the tropical analogue of the outer parallel body and establish bounds for its volume. We…
