We study the class of real-valued functions on convex subsets of R^n which are computed by the maximum of finitely many affine functionals with integer slopes. We prove several results to the effect that this property of a function can be…

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 define a formal framework for the study of algebras of type Max-plus, Min-Plus, tropical algebras, and more generally algebras over a commutative idempotent semi-field. This work is motivated by the increasingly diversified use of these…

The first steps in defining tropicalization for spherical varieties have been taken in the last few years. There are two parts to this theory: tropicalizing subvarieties of homogeneous spaces and tropicalizing their closures in spherical…
