Tropical Curves

چکیده
A tropical curve is a graph with specified edge lengths, some of which may be infinite. Various facts and attributes about algebraic curves have analogs for tropical curves. In this article, we focus on divisors and linear series, and prove the Riemann-Roch formula for divisors on tropical curves. We describe two ways in which algebraic curves may be transformed into tropical curves: by aboemas and by specialization on arithmetic surfaces. We discuss how the study of linear series on tropical curves can be used to obtain results about linear series on algebraic curves, and summarize several recent applications.

Tropical and algebraic curves with multiple points
Patchworking theorems serve as a basic element of the correspondence between tropical and algebraic curves, which is a core of the tropical enumerative geometry. We present a new version of a patchworking theorem which relates plane tropical curves with complex and real algebraic curves having prescribed multiple points. It can be used to compute Welschinger invariants of non-toric Del Pezzo su...
متن کاملUniversal Families of Rational Tropical Curves Georges Francois and Simon Hampe
We introduce the notion of families of n-marked smooth rational tropical curves over smooth tropical varieties and establish a one-to-one correspondence between (equivalence classes of) these families and morphisms from smooth tropical varieties into the moduli space of n-marked abstract rational tropical curves Mn.
متن کاملAlgebraic and tropical curves: comparing their moduli spaces
We construct the moduli space for equivalence classes of n-pointed tropical curves of genus g, together with its bordification given by weighted tropical curves, and its compactification by extended (weighted) tropical curves. We compare it to the moduli spaces of smooth and stable, n-pointed algebraic curves, from the combinatorial, the topological, and the Teichmüller point of view.
متن کاملTropical Fans and the Moduli Spaces of Tropical Curves
We give a rigorous definition of tropical fans (the “local building blocks for tropical varieties”) and their morphisms. For a morphism of tropical fans of the same dimension we show that the number of inverse images (counted with suitable tropical multiplicities) of a point in the target does not depend on the chosen point — a statement that can be viewed as one of the important first steps of...
متن کاملBroccoli Curves and the Tropical Invariance of Welschinger Numbers
In this paper we introduce broccoli curves, certain plane tropical curves of genus zero related to real algebraic curves. The numbers of these broccoli curves through given points are independent of the chosen points — for arbitrary choices of the directions of the ends of the curves, possibly with higher weights, and also if some of the ends are fixed. In the toric Del Pezzo case we show that ...
