We revisit a new type of a Voronoi diagram, in which distance is measured from a point to a pair of points. We consider a few more such distance functions, based on geometric primitives, and analyze the structure and complexity of the…
In this paper we initiate the study of tropical Voronoi diagrams. We start out with investigating bisectors of finitely many points with respect to arbitrary polyhedral norms. For this more general scenario we show that bisectors of three…
We study Voronoi diagrams for distance functions that add together two convex functions, each taking as its argument the difference between Cartesian coordinates of two planar points. When the functions do not grow too quickly, then the…
Towards building tropical analogues of adic spaces, we study certain spaces of prime congruences as a topological semiring replacement for the space of continuous valuations on a topological ring. This requires building the theory of…
Tropical roots of tropical polynomials have been previously studied and used to localize roots of classical polynomials and eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. We extend the theory of tropical roots from tropical polynomials to tropical…
Using the interpretation of the ultradiscretization procedure as a non-Archimedean valuation, we use results of tropical geometry to show how roots and poles manifest themselves in piece-wise linear systems as points of…
Speyer recognized that matroids encode the same data as a special class of tropical linear spaces and Shaw interpreted tropically certain basic matroid constructions; additionally, Frenk developed the perspective of tropical linear spaces…
We study Morse theory of the (power) distance function to a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We describe the topology of the union of the corresponding set of growing balls by a Morse poset. The Morse poset is related to the power…
There is a well known correspondence between the triangle inequality for a distance function on a finite set, and idempotency of an associated matrix over the tropical semiring. Recent research has shed new light on the structure…
Fermat-Weber points with respect to an asymmetric tropical distance function are studied. It turns out that they correspond to the optimal solutions of a transportation problem. The results are applied to obtain a new method for computing…
In this thesis we study sets of points in the plane and their Voronoi diagrams, in particular when the points coincide. We bring together two ways of studying point sets that have received a lot of attention in recent years: Voronoi…
We study nonnegative and sums of squares symmetric (and even symmetric) functions of fixed degree. We can think of these as limit cones of symmetric nonnegative polynomials and symmetric sums of squares of fixed degree as the number of…
We study how geometric properties of tropical convex sets and polytopes, which are of interest in many application areas, manifest themselves in their algebraic structure as modules over the tropical semiring. Our main results establish a…
In this note we study the relationship between ideals and congruences of the tropical polynomial and Laurent polynomial semirings. We show that the variety of a non-zero prime ideal of the tropical (Laurent) polynomial semiring consists of…
This thesis delves into the geometry of abstract tropical curves, exploring their complete linear system and associated tropical submodules. We establish a lower bound on the dimension of tropical submodules in terms of the Baker-Norine…
After endowing the space of diagrams of probability spaces with an entropy distance, we study its large-scale geometry by identifying the asymptotic cone as a closed convex cone in a Banach space. We call this cone the tropical cone, and…
While the standard unweighted Voronoi diagram in the plane has linear worst-case complexity, many of its natural generalizations do not. This paper considers two such previously studied generalizations, namely multiplicative and semi…
We investigate location problems whose optimum lies in the tropical convex hull of the input points. Firstly, we study geodesically star-convex sets under the asymmetric tropical distance and introduce the class of tropically quasiconvex…
The prototypical examples of tropical compactifications are compactifications of complements of hyperplane arrangements, which posses a number of remarkable properties not satisfied by more general tropical compactifications of closed…
We study a parametric version of the Fermat-Weber problem with respect to an asymmetric distance function, which occurs naturally in tropical geometry. Our results yield a method for constructing phylogenetic supertrees.
