We establish a characterization of the vertices of a tropical polyhedron defined as the intersection of finitely many half-spaces. We show that a point is a vertex if, and only if, a directed hypergraph, constructed from the…
Many combinatorial problems can be formulated as a polynomial optimization problem that can be solved by state-of-the-art methods in real algebraic geometry. In this paper we explain many important methods from real algebraic geometry, we…
The Chow polytope of an algebraic cycle in a torus depends only on its tropicalisation. Generalising this, we associate a Chow polytope to any abstract tropical variety in a tropicalised toric variety. Several significant polyhedra…
We introduce tropical Newton-Puiseux polynomials admitting rational exponents. A resolution of a tropical hypersurface is defined by means of a tropical Newton-Puiseux polynomial. A polynomial complexity algorithm for resolubility of 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 tropicalize the rational map that takes triples of points in the projective plane to the plane of quadrics passing through these points. The image of its tropicalization is contained in the tropicalization of its image. We identify these…
Let X be a plane in a torus over an algebraically closed field K, with tropicalization the matroidal fan Sigma. In this paper we present an algorithm which completely solves the question whether a given one-dimensional balanced polyhedral…
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…
We consider the enumeration of tropical curves in M\"obius strips for two different lattice structures and relate them to the enumeration of curves in two rational ruled surfaces over a complex elliptic curve. Using this correspondence, we…
We study tropical commuting matrices from two viewpoints: linear algebra and algebraic geometry. In classical linear algebra, there exist various criteria to test whether two square matrices commute. We ask for similar criteria in the realm…
Borrowing ideas from elliptic complex geometry, we approach M-theory compactifications on real toric fibrations. Precisely, we explore real toric equations rather than complex ones exploited in F-theory and related dual models. These…
Tropical refined invariants of toric surfaces constitute a fascinating interpolation between real and complex enumerative geometries via tropical geometry. They were originally introduced by Block and G\"ottsche, and further extended by…
We prove the existence of complexified real arrangements with the same combinatorics but different embeddings in the complex projective plane. Such pair of arrangements has an additional property: they admit conjugated equations on the ring…
Tropical algebraic geometry is the geometry of the tropical semiring $(\mathbb{R},\min,+)$. Its objects are polyhedral cell complexes which behave like complex algebraic varieties. We give an introduction to this theory, with an emphasis on…
The tropical semifield, i.e., the real numbers enhanced by the operations of addition and maximum, serves as a base of tropical mathematics. Addition is an abelian group operation, whereas the maximum defines an idempotent semigroup…
