| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
The tropicalization of a variety is a polyhedral shadow that contains a large amount of arithmetic information on the algebraic variety. This is especially true when the tropicalization is smooth, in the sense that there are no singularities. In practice however, many tropicalizations are not sufficiently smooth. In this project, we will investigate the possibility of transforming a tropical variety into a smooth one, with an eye towards applications in number theory.

| 研究実績の概要 |
The researcher first investigated finding sufficiently smooth tropicalizations of modular curves, which have a vast amount of applications in number theory. He used the associated ramified coverings of the projective line to find these, leading to the first general formulas for the tropical invariants of modular curves. These include their toric ranks and Tamagawa numbers (arXiv:2403.09995, 53 pages).
The researcher also investigated the homotopy type of smooth tropicalizations in order to understand their cohomology groups from a number-theoretic perspective. The researcher made important steps towards providing coverings of these spaces by Eilenberg-Maclane polyhedral domains. We expect these to give rise to explicit descriptions of the homotopy type in terms of glued braid groups.

理由
The results obtained thus far have exceeded the expected results as set out in the project plan. This is best exemplified by the recent preprint arXiv:2403.09995 released by the researcher on finding sufficiently smooth tropicalizations of modular curves, in which he developed a new group-theoretic technique for explicitly finding the pruned skeleton of a curve. This gave explicit formulas for tropical invariants of modular curves such as the toric ranks and Tamagawa numbers.
The researcher also investigated the homotopy type of higher-dimensional smooth tropicalizations, making important steps toward obtaining rigid-analytic descriptions of these. These descriptions will allow us to use combinatorial methods to study the corresponding Galois representations.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
The researcher will continue his work on smooth tropicalizations, and he expects to have a rigid analytic description of their cohomology groups within the foreseeable future. This constitutes a slight change of direction in the research plan, as the researcher has found that in order to understand moduli of smooth tropicalizations and their number-theoretic implications, more foundational results in terms of the homotopy type of a smooth tropicalization are necessary. Indeed, currently only complex-analytic comparisons are known, and these are not sufficient to fully describe the corresponding Galois representations. In keeping with the plan however, the researcher will focus on understanding the key example of smooth tropical K3-surfaces.
