Tropicalization of Schemes and Sheaves
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Motivated by the definition of tropical schemes and the schematic tropicalization of algebraic varieties defined over a non-Archimedean field, we introduce an algebraic process for the tropicalization of schemes and Zariski sheaves of rings and of modules over them. For us, tropicalization is understood in the broader sense of a process that associates idempotent algebraic objects to the usual ones from algebraic geometry. This goal is achieved by first building the affine case and then globalizing the construction in a functorial way for a fixed affine open covering of a given scheme. Our constructions are possible thanks to the algebraic interpretation of order-theoretic structures through the theory of commutative algebra for idempotent semirings. We define the notions of realizable semirings and realizable semimodules, and we show that they are suitable for our formalism due to the fact that their lattices of subobjects are, in a precise way, a combinatorial reflection of lattices coming from commutative algebra.
