Resumen de The diagonal of tropical matroid varieties and cycle intersections

Georges Francois, Johannes Rau

• We define an intersection product of tropical cycles on matroid varieties (via cutting out the diagonal) and show that it is well-behaved. In particular, this enables us to intersect cycles on moduli spaces of tropical rational marked curves ? and lab?(Δ,ℝ?) . This intersection product can be extended to smooth varieties (whose local models are matroid varieties). We also study pull-backs of cycles and rational equivalence.
