Brief Introduction to Tropical Geometry by E. Brugallé, I. Itenberg, G. Mikhalkin, K. Shaw
Publisher: arXiv 2015
Number of pages: 75
The paper consists of lecture notes for a mini-course given by the authors in 2014. We start the exposition with tropical curves in the plane and their applications to problems in classical enumerative geometry, and continue with a look at more general tropical varieties and their homology theories.
