Tropical Computations in polymake

Algebraic Geometry 2018-10-30 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

We give an overview of recently implemented polymake features for computations in tropical geometry. The main focus is on explicit examples rather than technical explanations. Our computations employ tropical hypersurfaces, moduli of tropical plane curves, tropical linear spaces and Grassmannians, lines on tropical cubic surfaces as well as intersection rings of matroids
