The study of alternative models for elliptic curves has found recent interest from cryptographic applications, once it was recognized that such models provide more efficiently computable algorithms for the group law than the standard…
We study representations of tropical linear spaces as intersections of tropical hyperplanes of circuits. For several classes of matroids, we describe minimal tropical bases. We also show that every realizable tropical linear space has a…
We determine the Weierstrass semigroup $H(P_{\infty}, P_{1}, \ldots , P_{m})$ at several points on the $GK$ curve. In addition, we present conditions to find pure gaps on the set of gaps $G(P_{\infty}, P_{1}, \ldots , P_{m})$. Finally, we…

The Weierstrass curve is a pointed curve $(X,\infty)$ with a numerical semigroup $H_X$, which is a normalization of the curve given by the Weierstrass canonical form, $y^r + A_{1}(x) y^{r-1} + A_{2}(x) y^{r-2} +\dots + A_{r-1}(x) y +…
Tropical mathematics redefines the rules of arithmetic by replacing addition with taking a maximum, and by replacing multiplication with addition. After briefly discussing a tropical version of linear algebra, we study polynomials build…
On plane algebraic curves the so-called Weierstrass kernel plays the same role of the Cauchy kernel on the complex plane. A straightforward prescription to construct the Weierstrass kernel is known since one century. How can it be extended…
We investigate the problem of counting tropical genus g curves in g-dimensional tropical abelian varieties. For g = 2, 3, we prove that the tropical count matches the count provided by G\"ottsche, Bryan-Leung, and Lange-Sernesi in the…
We present applications of tropical geometry to some integrable piecewise-linear maps, based on the lecture given by one of the authors (R. I.) at the workshop "Tropical Geometry and Integrable Systems" (University of Glasgow, July 2011),…
A sandpile is a cellular automaton on a graph that evolves by the following toppling rule: if the number of grains at a vertex is at least its valency, then this vertex sends one grain to each of its neighbors. In the study of pattern…
We introduce a notion of tropical vector bundle on a tropical toric variety which is a tropical analogue of a torus equivariant vector bundle on a toric variety. Alternatively it can be called a toric matroid bundle. We define equivariant…
Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb C\simeq \mathbb R^2$ with associated Weierstrass function $\wp_{\Lambda}$, we determine the algebraic curves in $\mathbb R^2$ whose image via $\wp_{\Lambda}$ is contained in an algebraic curve.
Tropical algebraic geometry offers new tools for elimination theory and implicitization. We determine the tropicalization of the image of a subvariety of an algebraic torus under any homomorphism from that torus to another torus.
Large algebraic structures are found inside the space of sequences of continuous functions on a compact interval having the property that, the series defined by each sequence converges absolutely and uniformly on the interval but the series…
We introduce and study polystable divisors on a tropical curve, which are the tropical analogue of polystable torsion-free rank-1 sheaves on a nodal curve. We construct a universal tropical Jacobian over the moduli space of tropical curves…
We study the topology of the tropical moduli space parametrizing stable tropical curves of genus g with n marked points in which the bounded edges have total length 1, and prove that it is highly connected. Using the identification of this…
We prove a form of the Weierstrass Preparation Theorem for normal algebraic curves over complete discrete valuation rings. While the more traditional algebraic form of Weierstrass Preparation applies just to the projective line over a base,…
For each integer $D \geq 5$ with $D \equiv 0$ or $1 \bmod 4$, the Weierstrass curve $W_D$ is an algebraic curve and a finite volume hyperbolic orbifold which admits an algebraic and isometric immersion into the moduli space of genus two…
The Weierstrass curve $X$ is a smooth algebraic curve determined by the Weierstrass canonical form, $y^r + A_{1}(x) y^{r-1} + A_{2}(x) y^{r-2} +\cdots + A_{r-1}(x) y + A_{r}(x)=0$, where $r$ is a positive integer, and each $A_j$ is a…
This talk gives an introduction into the subject of Seiberg-Witten curves and their relation to integrable systems. We discuss some motivations and origins of this relation and consider explicit construction of various families of…
