Tropical Fréchet Means: a polyhedral approach to exact optimization

Kamillo Ferry, Bo Lin, Carlos Améndola +2

The Fréchet mean is a fundamental notion of central tendency defined as a minimizer of a sum of squared distances in a general metric space. In this paper, we study Fréchet means i…

Tropical Geometric Variation of Phylogenetic Tree Shapes

Bo Lin, Anthea Monod, Ruriko Yoshida

We study the behavior of phylogenetic tree shapes in the tropical geometric interpretation of tree space. Tree shapes are formally referred to as tree topologies; a tree topology c…

Tropical Optimal Transport and Wasserstein Distances

Wonjun Lee, Wuchen Li, Bo Lin +1

We study the problem of optimal transport in tropical geometry and define the Wasserstein- distances in the continuous metric measure space setting of the tropical projective to…

Tropical Geometry of Phylogenetic Tree Space: A Statistical Perspective

Anthea Monod, Bo Lin, Ruriko Yoshida +1

Phylogenetic trees are the fundamental mathematical representation of evolutionary processes in biology. They are also objects of interest in pure mathematics, such as algebraic ge…

Two-player incentive compatible outcome functions are affine maximizers

Bo Lin, Ngoc Mai Tran

In mechanism design, for a given type space, there may be incentive compatible outcome functions which are not affine maximizers. Using tools from linear algebra and tropical geome…

Linear and Rational Factorization of Tropical Polynomials

Bo Lin, Ngoc Mai Tran

Already for bivariate tropical polynomials, factorization is an NP-Complete problem. In this paper, we give an efficient algorithm for factorization and rational factorization of a…
