Abstract: This paper lays out a foundation for a theory of supertropical algebraic geometry, relying on commutative $u$-algebra. To this end, the paper introduces $mathfrakq$-congruences, carried over $u$-semirings, whose distinguished ghost and tangible clusters allow both quotienting and localization. Utilizing these clusters, $mathfrakg$-prime, $mathfrakg$-radical, and maximal $mathfrakq$-congruences are naturally defined, satisfying the classical relations among analogous ideals. Thus, a foundation of systematic theory of commutative $u$-algebra is laid. In this framework, the underlying spaces for a theoretic construction of schemes are spectra of $mathfrakg$-prime congruences, over which the correspondences between $mathfrakq$-congruences and varieties emerge directly. Thereby, scheme theory within supertropical algebraic geometry follows the Grothendieck approach, and is applicable to polyhedral geometry.
