The North German Plain Goes Tropical
Tropical Geometry is an emerging field at the crossroads of algebraic geometry, several complex variables, computational algebra, and geometric combinatorics. More and more mathematicians in northern central Europe touch Tropical Geometry in one or another way. Our objective is to bring people together for one-day seminars, to make them exchange their latest interests and projects, to keep each other posted on recent developments, and to provide a platform for young mathematicians in the field.
