Every tropical ideal in the sense of Maclagan-Rinc\'on has an associated tropical variety, a finite polyhedral complex equipped with positive integral weights on its maximal cells. This leads to the realisability question, ubiquitous in…
We generalise the notion of Gr\"obner fan to ideals in R[[t]][x_1,...,x_n] for certain classes of coefficient rings R and give a constructive proof that the Gr\"obner fan is a rational polyhedral fan. For this we introduce the notion of…
Normal complexes are orthogonal truncations of polyhedral fans. In this paper, we develop the study of mixed volumes for normal complexes. Our main result is a sufficiency condition that ensures when the mixed volumes of normal complexes…
We introduce a moduli functor for varieties whose tropicalization realizes a given weighted fan and show that this functor is an algebraic space in general, and is represented by a scheme of finite type when the associated toric variety is…
In the paper: Fans in the Theory of Real Semigroups. I. Algebraic Theory (submitted) we introduced the notion of fan in the categories of real semigoups and their dual abstract real spectra and developed the algebraic theory of these…
Tropical algebraic geometry is the geometry of the tropical semiring (R, min, +). The theory of total positivity is a natural generalization of the study of matrices with all minors positive. In this paper we introduce the totally positive…
In a finite-dimensional real vector space furnished with a rational structure with respect to a subfield of the field of real numbers, every (simplicial) rational semifan is contained in a complete (simplicial) rational semifan. In this…
We prove that the proper amalgam of matroids $M_1$ and $M_2$ along their common restriction $N$ exists if and only if the tropical fibre product of Bergman fans ${B(M_1) \times_{B(N)} B(M_2)}$ is positive. We introduce tropical…
This paper is the first in a series devoted to the development of a Hodge theory for tropical varieties. We introduce a notion of T-stability for tropical fans and prove that various geometric properties of tropical fans are T-stable. As a…
The category of (abstract) fans is to the category of monoids what the category of schemes is to the category of rings: a fan is obtained by gluing spectra of monoids along open embeddings. Here we study the basic algebraic geometry of…
We review the theory of combinatorial intersection cohomology of fans developed by Barthel-Brasselet-Fieseler-Kaup, Bressler-Lunts, and Karu. This theory gives a substitute for the intersection cohomology of toric varieties which has all…
We propose new definitions of integral, reduced, and normal superrings and superschemes to properly establish the notion of a supervariety. We generalize several results about classical reduced rings and varieties to the supergeometric…
We present two algorithms determining all the complete and simplicial fans admitting a fixed non-degenerate set of vectors $V$ as generators of their 1-skeleton. The interplay of the two algorithms allows us to discerning if the associated…
Given a closed subvariety of an algebraic torus, the associated tropical variety is a polyhedral fan in the space of 1-parameter subgroups of the torus which describes the behaviour of the subvariety at infinity. We show that the link of…
The Groebner fan of an ideal $I\subset k[x_1,...,x_n]$, defined by Mora and Robbiano, is a complex of polyhedral cones in $R^n$. The maximal cones of the fan are in bijection with the distinct monomial initial ideals of $I$ as the term…
We establish a correspondence between simplicial fans, not necessarily rational, and certain foliated compact complex manifolds called LVMB-manifolds. In the rational case, Meersseman and Verjovsky have shown that the leaf space is the…
We show that any normal toric variety over a rank one valuation ring admits an equivariant open embedding in a normal toric variety which is proper over the valuation ring, after a base-change by a finite extension of valuation rings. If…
This article discusses the concept of rational equivalence in tropical geometry (and replaces the older and imperfect version arXiv:0811.2860). We give the basic definitions in the context of tropical varieties without boundary points and…
Graph associahedra are natural generalizations of the classical associahedra. They provide polytopal realizations of the nested complex of a graph $G$, defined as the simplicial complex whose vertices are the tubes (i.e. connected induced…
The tropical variety of a $d$-dimensional prime ideal in a polynomial ring with complex coefficients is a pure $d$-dimensional polyhedral fan. This fan is shown to be connected in codimension one. We present algorithmic tools for computing…
