We then proceed to develop the foundations of an intersection theory on cone complexes including push-forwards, intersections with tropical divisors, and rational equivalence. These constructions are shown to have an algebraic interpretation: Ulirsch's tropicalizations of subvarieties of toroidal embeddings carry natural multiplicities making them tropical cycles, and the induced tropicalization map for cycles respects push-forwards, intersections with boundary divisors, and rational equivalence. As an application we prove a correspondence between the genus 0 tropical descendant Gromov-Witten invariants introduced by Markwig and Rau and the genus 0 logarithmic descendant Gromov-Witten invariants of toric varieties.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-10-15T16:10:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14T05" ], "keywords": [ "intersection theory", "tropicalization", "toroidal embeddings carry natural multiplicities", "logarithmic descendant gromov-witten invariants", "rational equivalence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151004604G" } } }
