Matroid theory for algebraic geometers

E Katz - Nonarchimedean and tropical geometry, 2016 - Springer
This article is an introduction to matroid theory aimed at algebraic geometers. Matroids are
combinatorial abstractions of linear subspaces and hyperplane arrangements. Not all …

Towards mirror symmetry for varieties of general type

M Gross, L Katzarkov, H Ruddat - Advances in Mathematics, 2017 - Elsevier
The goal of this paper is to propose a theory of mirror symmetry for varieties of general type.
Using Landau–Ginzburg mirrors as motivation, we describe the mirror of a hypersurface of …

Boundary complexes and weight filtrations

S Payne - Michigan Mathematical Journal, 2013 - projecteuclid.org
Let D be a divisor with simple normal crossings on an algebraic variety. The dual complex
(D) is a triangulated topological space, or-complex, whose k-dimensional simplices …

Tropical refined curve counting via motivic integration

J Nicaise, S Payne, F Schroeter - Geometry & Topology, 2018 - msp.org
We propose a geometric interpretation of Block and Göttsche's refined tropical curve
counting invariants in terms of virtual χ− y specializations of motivic measures of …

Topology of nonarchimedean analytic spaces and relations to complex algebraic geometry

S Payne - Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 2015 - ams.org
This note surveys basic topological properties of nonarchimedean analytic spaces, in the
sense of Berkovich, including the recent tameness results of Hrushovski and Loeser. We …

Real phase structures on tropical manifolds and patchworks in higher codimension

Formulas for monodromy

A Stapledon - Research in the Mathematical Sciences, 2017 - Springer
Given a family X of complex varieties degenerating over a punctured disk, one is interested
in computing related invariants called the motivic nearby fiber and the refined limit mixed …

Tropical complexes

D Cartwright - Manuscripta mathematica, 2020 - Springer
We introduce tropical complexes, as an enrichment of the dual complex of a degeneration
with additional data from non-transverse intersection numbers. We define cycles, divisors …
