Abstract |
The paper consists of lecture notes for a mini-course given by the authors at the Gökova Geometry & Topology conference in May 2014. We start the exposition with tropical curves in the plane and their applications to problems in classical enumerative geometry, and continue with a look at more general tropical varieties and their homology theories. |
