Tropical compactification

In algebraic geometry, a tropical compactification is a compactification (projective completion) of a subvariety of an algebraic torus, introduced by Jenia Tevelev.[1][2] Given an algebraic torus and a connected closed subvariety of that torus, a compatification of the subvariety is defined as a closure of it in a toric variety of the original torus. The concept of a tropical compatification arises when trying to make compactifications as "nice" as possible. For a torus , a toric variety , the compatification is tropical when the map

is faithfully flat and is proper.
