Abstract: We apply tropical geometry to study matrix algebras over a field with valuation. Using the shapes of min-max convexity, known as polytropes, we revisit the graduated orders introduced by Plesken and Zassenhaus. These are classified by the polytrope region. We advance the ideal theory of graduated orders by introducing their ideal class polytropes. This article emphasizes examples and computations. It offers first steps in the geometric combinatorics of endomorphism rings of configurations in affine buildings.

Review text

The main part of the paper is a concise exposition of the theory of graduated orders on the space of square matrices with entries in a given valued field. It is based on previous work of Plesken and Zassenhausen, as described in [\textit{W. Plesken}, Group rings of finite groups over \(p\)-adic integers. Berlin etc.: Springer-Verlag (1983; Zbl 0537.20002)]. In addition, the authors provide some further results, which in particular establish connections to tropical geometry and Bruhat-Tits buildings, as well as many detailed examples.
