Tropical Convexity via Cellular Resolutions

Florian Block, Josephine Yu · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2005

The tropical convex hull of a finite set of points in tropical projective space has a natural structure of a cellular free resolution. Therefore, methods from computational commutative algebra can be used to compute tropical convex hulls. Tropical cyclic polytopes are also presented.
