The virtual Euler characteristic for binary matroids

Madeline Brandt, Juliette Bruce, Daniel Corey

Inspired by Kontsevich's graphic orbifold Euler characteristic we define a virtual Euler characteristic for any finite set of isomorphism classes of matroids of rank . Our main…

Towards tropically counting binodal surfaces

Madeline Brandt, Alheydis Geiger

Tropical counting tools are useful for many enumerative questions. We count tropical multinodal surfaces using floor plans, looking at the case when two nodes are tropically close…

Classification of Quadratic Packing Polynomials on Sectors of

Madeline Brandt, Kåre Schou Gjaldbæk

We study quadratic polynomials giving bijections from the integer lattice points of sectors of onto , called packing polynomials. We determine all qua…

On the Top-Weight Rational Cohomology of

Madeline Brandt, Juliette Bruce, Melody Chan +3

We compute the top-weight rational cohomology of for , , and , and we give some vanishing results for the top-weight rational cohomology of and $ A_{10…

Tropical flag varieties

Madeline Brandt, Christopher Eur, Leon Zhang

Flag matroids are combinatorial abstractions of flags of linear subspaces, just as matroids are of linear subspaces. We introduce the flag Dressian as a tropical analogue of the pa…

A Tropical Count of Binodal Cubic Surfaces

Madeline Brandt, Alheydis Geiger

There are 280 binodal cubic surfaces passing through 17 general points. For the typically used tropical point conditions, we show that 214 of these give tropicalizations such that…

Divisorial motivic zeta functions for marked stable curves

Madeline Brandt, Martin Ulirsch

We define a divisorial motivic zeta function for stable curves with marked points which agrees with Kapranov's motivic zeta function when the curve is smooth and unmarked. We show…

Voronoi Cells in Metric Algebraic Geometry of Plane Curves

Madeline Brandt, Madeleine Weinstein

Voronoi cells of varieties encode many features of their metric geometry. We prove that each Voronoi or Delaunay cell of a plane curve appears as the limit of a sequence of cells o…

Matroids and their Dressians

Madeline Brandt, David E Speyer

We study Dressians of matroids using the initial matroids of Dress and Wenzel. These correspond to cells in regular matroid subdivisions of matroid polytopes. An efficient algorith…

Symmetric powers of algebraic and tropical curves: a non-Archimedean perspective

Madeline Brandt, Martin Ulirsch

We show that the non-Archimedean skeleton of the -th symmetric power of a smooth projective algebraic curve is naturally isomorphic to the -th symmetric power of the trop…

The slack realization space of a matroid

Madeline Brandt, Amy Wiebe

We introduce a new model for the realization space of a matroid, which is obtained from a variety defined by a saturated determinantal ideal, called the slack ideal, coming from th…

Tropical superelliptic curves

Madeline Brandt, Paul Alexander Helminck

We present an algorithm for computing the Berkovich skeleton of a superelliptic curve over a valued field. After defining superelliptic weighted metric graphs, we show t…

Optimal Packings of Two to Four Equal Circles on Any Flat Torus

Madeline Brandt, William Dickinson, AnnaVictoria Ellsworth +2

We find explicit formulas for the radii and locations of the circles in all the optimally dense packings of two, three or four equal circles on any flat torus, defined to be the qu…

The degree of

Madeline Brandt, DJ Bruce, Taylor Brysiewicz +2

We provide a closed formula for the degree of over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In addition, we describe symbolic and numerical techniques w…

From Curves to Tropical Jacobians and Back

Barbara Bolognese, Madeline Brandt, Lynn Chua

Given a curve defined over an algebraically closed field which is complete with respect to a nontrivial valuation, we study its tropical Jacobian. This is done by first tropicalizi…

Quadratic Packing Polynomials on Sectors of

Madeline Brandt

A polynomial on a region in the plane is called a packing polynomial if the restriction of to yields a bijection to . In this…
