Tropical Fano Schemes

Abstract

We define a tropical version \Fd(\tropX)\F_d(\trop X) of the Fano Scheme \Fd(X)\F_d(X) of a projective variety XPnX\subseteq \mathbb P^n and prove that \Fd(\tropX)\F_d(\trop X) is the support of a polyhedral complex contained in \trop\Grp(d,n)\trop \Grp(d,n). In general \trop\Fd(X)\Fd(\tropX)\trop \F_d(X)\subseteq \F_d(\trop X) but we construct linear spaces LL such that \trop\F1(X)\F1(\tropX)\trop \F_1(X)\subsetneq \F_1(\trop X) and show that for a toric variety \trop\Fd(X)=\Fd(\tropX)\trop \F_d(X)=\F_d(\trop X).
