Refined tropical enumerative invariants


Abstract
             

This talk continues the introductory series started with "Introduction to tropical geometry" on October 27, 2022. Refined tropical enumerative invariants (i.e., invariants depending on a parameter) were introduced by Block and Göttsche as one-parameter deformations of complex tropical enumerative invariants. Block and Göttsche observed that the refined invariants interpolate between the complex and real enumerative invariants. We discuss this phenomenon as well as other algebraic-geometric interpretations of Block-Göttsche invariants and some other refined tropical enumerative invariants.
