We show how to equip the cone complexes of toroidal embeddings with additional structure that allows to define a balancing condition for weighted subcomplexes. We then proceed to develop the foundations of an intersection theory on cone…
This note wants to explain how to obtain meaningful pictures of (possibly high-dimensional) convex polytopes, triangulated manifolds, and other objects from the realm of geometric combinatorics such as tight spans of finite metric spaces…
We show that points in the intersection of the tropicalizations of subvarieties of a torus lift to algebraic intersection points with expected multiplicities, provided that the tropicalizations intersect in the expected dimension. We also…
In a series of articles, we have been developing a theory of tropical diagrams of probability spaces, expecting it to be useful for information optimization problems in information theory and artificial intelligence. In this article, we…
In this paper we develop a combinatorial abstraction of tropical linear programming. This generalizes the search for a feasible point of a system of min-plus-inequalities. It is based on the polyhedral properties of triangulations of the…
We study the tropicalization of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices over the ordered field of real Puiseux series. The tropical PSD matrices form the normal cone of the Newton polytope of the symmetric determinant at the vertex…
This book is an introduction to the nascent field of Fourier analysis on polytopes, and cones. There is a rapidly growing number of applications of these methods, so it is appropriate to invite students, as well as professionals, to the…
Cayley polytopes were defined recently as convex hulls of Cayley compositions introduced by Cayley in 1857. In this paper we resolve Braun's conjecture, which expresses the volume of Cayley polytopes in terms of the number of connected…
We survey the Hilbert geometry of convex polytopes. In particular we present two important characterisations of these geometries, the first one in terms of the volume growth of their metric balls, the second one as a bi-lipschitz class of…
We explicitly describe the tropicalization of a type C cluster variety by identifying it with the space of axially symmetric phylogenetic trees. We also study the signed tropicalizations of this cluster variety, realizing them as subfans of…
A mostly expository account of old questions about the relationship between polyhedra and topological manifolds. Topics are old topological results, new gauge theory results (with speculations about next directions), and history of the…
We study tropical degree bounds, stable tropical intersections, and tropical B\'ezout-type estimates through the geometry of Newton polytopes, mixed subdivisions, and lattice indices. We establish an upper bound for the tropical degree of a…
We introduce a notion of dimension of max-min convex sets, following the approach of tropical convexity. We introduce a max-min analogue of the tropical rank of a matrix and show that it is equal to the dimension of the associated polytope.…
Here I present several theorems about trapezoids tilings. The first one is related to trapezoids with rational base relation, the other ones are related to those with base relation from quadratic number field.
We establish a partial extension of the Poincar\'e duality theorem of Jell-Rau-Shaw to tropical hypersurfaces arising from non-primitive triangulations. We introduce a notion of level of primitivity for triangulations of lattice polytopes…
This article studies a large, general class of orthogonal polytopes which we may call "generic orthotopes". These objects emerged from a desire to represent a Coxeter complex by an orthogonal polytope that is particularly nice with respect…
We introduce a notion of Lorentzian proper position in close analogy to proper position of stable polynomials. Using this notion, we give a new characterization of elementary quotients of M-convex function that parallels the Lorentzian…
We present a new algorithmic framework which utilizes tropical geometry and homotopy continuation for solving systems of polynomial equations where some of the polynomials are generic elements in linear subspaces of the polynomial ring.…
Using the orthogonal connectedness, we introduce the notion of orthogonal decomposability of convex polytopes and study it in the case of Platonic and Archimedean solids. While doing so, we also encounter polytopes which are not…
In this paper we fully describe all tropical linear mappings in the tropical projective plane, that is, maps from the tropical plane to itself given by tropical multiplication by an order 3 matrix. An erratum has been added fixing two…
