Bitangents to plane quartics via tropical geometry: rationality, -enumeration, and real signed count

H Markwig, S Payne, K Shaw - Research in the Mathematical Sciences, 2023 - Springer
We explore extensions of tropical methods to arithmetic enumerative problems such as A 1-
enumeration with values in the Grothendieck–Witt ring and rationality over Henselian valued …

Combinatorics and real lifts of bitangents to tropical quartic curves

MA Cueto, H Markwig - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2023 - Springer
Smooth algebraic plane quartics over algebraically closed fields of characteristic different
than two have 28 bitangent lines. Their tropical counterparts often have infinitely many …

Avoidance loci and tropicalizations of real bitangents to plane quartics

H Markwig, S Payne, K Shaw - Proceedings of the Royal Society of …, 2024 - cambridge.org
We compare two partitions of real bitangents to smooth plane quartics into sets of 4: one
coming from the closures of connected components of the avoidance locus and another …

Bitangents of real algebraic curves: signed count and constructions

T Blomme, E Brugallé, C Garay - arXiv preprint arXiv:2402.03993, 2024 - arxiv.org
We study real bitangents of real algebraic plane curves from two perspectives. We first show
that there exists a signed count of such bitangents that only depends on the real topological …

A Geiger, M Panizzut - Journal of Symbolic Computation, 2024 - Elsevier
In this article we introduce the recently developed polymake extension
TropicalQuarticCurves and its associated database entry in polyDB dealing with smooth …

Tropical geometric counting problems

ABM Geiger - 2022 - tobias-lib.ub.uni-tuebingen.de
A degeneration of algebraic counting problems to tropical geometry produces new concepts
and computational approaches. The challenge is to find methods to lift the results in the …
