Floor diagrams and enumeration of tropical curves
[ Abstract ]
The enumerative problems considered in this talk are finding the number of curves in projective spaces (over complex, real and tropical numbers) of given genus and degree constrained by certain incidence conditions (e.g. passing via points or lines). Floor diagrams are a combinatorial tool that reduces an enumerative problem in dimension n to the corresponding problem n dimension n-1. Floor diagrams give a constructive (and rather efficient) way to find all tropical curves for a given enumerative problem. And once we have a tropical solution of the problem we can use it to solve the corresponding problems over the complex and real numbers.
