We give an introduction to Tropical Geometry and prove some results in Tropical Intersection Theory. The first part of this paper is an introduction to tropical geometry aimed at researchers in Algebraic Geometry from the point of view of…
We construct from a real affine manifold with singularities (a tropical manifold) a degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds. This solves a fundamental problem in mirror symmetry. Furthermore, a striking feature of our approach is that it…
We consider a toric degeneration of Calabi--Yau complete intersections of Batyrev--Borisov in the Gross--Siebert program. The author showed in his previous work that there exists an integral affine contraction map called a tropical…
This work is the third part of a series of papers. In the first two we consider curves and varieties in a power of an elliptic curve. Here we deal with subvarieties of an abelian variety in general. Let V be an irreducible variety of…
We construct a functorial decomposition of de Rham cohomology sheaves, called weight decomposition, for smooth analytic spaces over non-Archimedean fields embeddable into $\mathbf{C}_p$, which generalizes a construction of Berkovich and…
For a class of maximally degenerate families of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces of complex projective space, we study associated non-Archimedean and tropical Monge-Amp\`ere equations, taking place on the associated Berkovich space, and the…
The theory of the topological vertex was originally proposed by Aganagic, Klemm, Mari\~no and Vafa as a means to calculate open Gromov-Witten invariants of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. In this paper, we place the topological vertex within…
In tropical geometry, one studies algebraic curves using combinatorial techniques via the tropicalization procedure. The tropicalization depends on a map to an algebraic torus and the combinatorial methods are most useful when the…
We consider the set of forms of a toric variety over an arbitrary field: those varieties which become isomorphic to a toric variety after base field extension. In contrast to most previous work, we also consider arbitrary isomorphisms…
For a complex toric variety $X$ the logarithmic absolute value induces a natural retraction of $X$ onto the set of its non-negative points and this retraction can be identified with a quotient of $X(\mathbb{C})$ by its big real torus. We…
This is an expository article on the adic tropicalization of algebraic varieties. We outline joint work with Sam Payne in which we put a topology and structure sheaf of local topological rings on the exploded tropicalization. The resulting…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group. In this note we prove that for a quasi-affine $G$-spherical variety the weight monoid is determined by the weights of its non-trivial $\mathbb{G}_a$-actions that are homogeneous with respect…
The subject of the present paper is phase tropicalization, which was used crucially in the context of Mikhalkin's correspondence theorem for curve counting in the complex coefficient case. The subject can be traced back to Viro's…
In this paper, we give an explicit description of tropical cohomology of smooth algebraic varieties over trivially valued fields. We also construct ``monodromy weight'' spectral sequences for tropical cohomology of geometric strictly…
We formulate a conjecture for semiabelian varieties A over number fields that includes both the Mordell-Lang conjecture (now proven) and the Bogomolov conjecture. We prove the "Mordellic" (finitely generated) part of the conjecture when A…
The homogeneous spectrum of a multigraded finitely generated algebra (in the sense of Brenner-Schr\"oer) always admits an embedding into a toric variety that is not necessarily separated, a so-called toric prevariety. In order to have a…
Let $\mathbb{G}(d,n)$ be the complex Grassmannian of affine $d$-planes in $n$-space. We study the problem of characterizing the set of algebraic subvarieties of $\mathbb{G}(d,n)$ invariant under the action of the maximal torus $T$ and…
We study compactifications of subvarieties of algebraic tori defined by imposing a sufficiently fine polyhedral structure on their non-archimedean amoebas. These compactifications have many nice properties, for example any k boundary…
We show that the moduli spaces of irreducible labeled parametrized marked rational curves in toric varieties can be embedded into algebraic tori such that their tropicalizations are the analogous tropical moduli spaces. These embeddings are…
We systematically produce algebraic varieties with torus action by constructing them as suitably embedded subvarieties of toric varieties. The resulting varieties admit an explicit treatment in terms of toric geometry and graded ring…
