Abstract :
An important theme in mathematics consists of relating
equations to geometric objects.
For example, an equation such as $x+y=1$
can describe a line in the real plane.
However, it can also describe other geometric objects,
such as a complex "line" or
a "tropical
line", where the latter looks like three rays in the plane emanating from
the
origin. I will describe
how such geometric objects are related. Time permitting,
I will also describe how tropical and even
non-Archimedean geometry can arise as
a limit of
classical geometry.
