Abstract: Given a complex vector subspace $V$ of $mathbb{C}^n$, the dimension of the amoeba of $Vcap(mathbb{C}^{\ast }{)}^n$ depends only on the matroid that $V$ defines on the ground set $1,ldots,n$. Here we prove that this dimension is given by the minimum of a certain function over all partitions of the ground set, as previously conjectured by Rau. We also prove that this formula can be evaluated in polynomial time.
