Tropical Newton-Puiseux polynomials II [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Tropical Newton-Puiseux polynomials defined as piece-wise linear functions with rational coefficients at the variables, play a role of tropical algebraic functions. We provide explicit formulas for tropical Newton-Puiseux polynomials being the tropical zeroes of a univariate tropical polynomial with parametric coefficients.

Cohomologically tropical varieties [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Given the tropicalization of a complex subvariety of the torus, we define a morphism between the tropical cohomology and the rational cohomology of their respective tropical compactifications. We say that the subvariety of the torus is cohomologically tropical if this map is an isomorphism for all closed strata of the tropical compactification.

Tropicalizing the positive semidefinite cone [PDF]
Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 143 (2015), no. 5, 1891-1895, 2013 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 corresponding to the product of diagonal entries. We find generators and defining inequalities of the cone.
