Dimension computations for tropical determinantal varieties and prevarieties

Algebraic Geometry 2022-01-07 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

This paper proves that when the r×rr \times r minors of an m×nm \times n matrix of indeterminates are not a tropical basis then the tropical prevariety has greater dimension than the tropical variety. It proves the same for the r×rr \times r minors of an n×nn \times n symmetric matrix of indeterminates when r > 4.
