Welcome to the homepage for the Tropical Geometry Seminar.
This seminar is co-organized by Andrew Tawfeek and Dhruv Bhatia.
This seminar ran in the Summer 2024 quarter with plans to resume in Winter 2025.
We alternated between lectures days and discussion/coding days.
Note: The coding project has it's own Github.
The seminar maintains a Zulip chat for continued discussion and has a shared Google Drive.*
* Both of these require your @uw.edu email to access.

Our main resource will be Melody Chan's lecture notes on Tropical Curves and their Moduli Spaces. Here are videos from these lectures given at CIMPA-CIMAT-ICTP School of Moduli of Curves.
For a primer on these notions, see this AMS Notice on Moduli Spaces of Curves: Classical and Tropical.
