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…

The space of phylogenetic trees arises naturally in tropical geometry as the tropical Grassmannian. Tropical geometry therefore suggests a natural notion of a tropical path between two trees, given by a tropical line segment in the tropical…

We present an algorithm for computing zero-dimensional tropical varieties based on triangular decomposition and Newton polygon methods. From it, we derive algorithms for computing points on and links of higher-dimensional tropical…

In this paper, we continue our study of blade arrangements and the positroidal subdivisions which are induced by them on $\Delta_{k,n}$. A blade is a tropical hypersurface which is generated by a system of $n$ affine simple roots of type…

We study the behavior of phylogenetic tree shapes in the tropical geometric interpretation of tree space. Tree shapes are formally referred to as tree topologies; a tree topology can also be thought of as a tree combinatorial type, which is…

We undertake a combinatorial study of the piecewise linear map g : R^{2m+2n} --> R^{mn} which assigns to the four vectors a, A in R^m and b, B in R^n the m by n matrix given by g_{ij} = min (a_i + b_j, A_i+B_j). This map arises naturally in…

The goal of this paper is to make a connection between tropical geometry, representations of quantum affine algebras, and scattering amplitudes in physics. The connection allows us to study important and difficult questions in these areas:…

Every tropical ideal in the sense of Maclagan-Rinc\'on has an associated tropical variety, a finite polyhedral complex equipped with positive integral weights on its maximal cells. This leads to the realisability question, ubiquitous in…

We resolve a conjecture about a class of binomial initial ideals of $I_{2,n}$, the ideal of the Grassmannian, Gr$(2,\mathbb{C}^n$), which are associated to phylogenetic trees. For a weight vector $\omega$ in the tropical Grassmannian,…

The Amplituhedron is a subspace of the Grassmannian that was recently defined by Arkani-Hamed and Trnka in their study of scattering amplitudes in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang Mills theory (arXiv:1312.2007), and was the subject of many…

Tropical algebraic geometry is the geometry of the tropical semiring $(\mathbb{R},\min,+)$. Its objects are polyhedral cell complexes which behave like complex algebraic varieties. We give an introduction to this theory, with an emphasis on…

Grassmannians are of fundamental importance in projective geometry, algebraic geometry, and representation theory. A vast literature has grown up utilizing using many different languages of higher mathematics, such as multilinear and tensor…

Scaffolds are the one-dimensional skeleta of high-dimensional flag simplicial complexes of nonpositive curvature. They generalize the phylogenetic trees of Trop G(2,n) to arbitrary $k$, drawing together SL(k)-web bases, affine buildings,…

The space T_{d,n} of n tropically collinear points in a fixed tropical projective space TP^{d-1} is equivalent to the tropicalization of the determinantal variety of matrices of rank at most 2, which consists of real d x n matrices of…

We fix the supports A=(A_1,...,A_k) of a list of tropical polynomials and define the tropical resultant TR(A) to be the set of choices of coefficients such that the tropical polynomials have a common solution. We prove that TR(A) is the…

This paper introduces the foundations of the polynomial algebra and basic structures for algebraic geometry over the extended tropical semiring. Our development, which includes the tropical version for the fundamental theorem of algebra,…

The Dressian and the tropical Grassmannian parameterize abstract and realizable tropical linear spaces; but in general, the Dressian is much larger than the tropical Grassmannian. There are natural positive notions of both of these spaces…

We study tropical line arrangements associated to a three-regular graph $G$ that we refer to as \emph{tropical graph curves}. Roughly speaking, the tropical graph curve associated to $G$, whose genus is $g$, is an arrangement of $2g-2$…

The Dressian Dr(k,n) parametrizes all tropical linear spaces, and it carries a natural fan structure as a subfan of the secondaryfan of the hypersimplex \Delta(k,n). We explore the combinatorics of the rays of Dr(k,n), that is, the most…

We define and study the cyclic Bergman fan of a matroid M, which is a simplicial polyhedral fan supported on the tropical linear space T(M) of M and is amenable to computational purposes. It slightly refines the nested set structure on…
