Abstract: We use recent results by Bainbridge-Chen-Gendron-Grushevsky-Moeller on compactifications of strata of abelian differentials to give a comprehensive solution to the realizability problem for effective tropical canonical divisors in equicharacteristic zero. Given a pair (Gamma,D) consisting of a stable tropical curve Gamma and a divisor D in the canonical linear system on Gamma, we give a purely combinatorial condition to decide whether there is a smooth curve X over a non-Archimedean field whose stable reduction has Gamma as its dual tropical curve together with a effective canonical divisor KX that specializes to D. Along the way, we develop a moduli-theoretic framework to understand Baker's specialization of divisors from algebraic to tropical curves as a natural toroidal tropicalization map in the sense of Abramovich-Caporaso-Payne.
