Tropical geometry

2018, Brugallé, Erwan, Itenberg, Ilia, Shaw, Kristin, Viro, Oleg

What kind of strange spaces hide behind the enigmatic name of tropical geometry? In the tropics, just as in other geometries, one of the simplest objects is a line. Therefore, we begin our exploration by considering tropical lines. Afterwards, we take a look at tropical arithmetic and algebra, and describe how to define tropical curves using tropical polynomials.
