Sharpness conjecture for tropical gonality bounds of lattice polygons
Sharpness conjecture for tropical gonality bounds of lattice polygons
Let be a two-dimensional lattice polygon. A regular subdivision determines a metric graph , and denotes the curve associated with a Laurent polynomial . Sharpness conjecture. There is a regular subdivision of such that the set of irreducible Laurent polynomials with and with the gonality of equal to the gonality of is Zariski dense in the space of Laurent polynomials with . This conjecture is stated as the expected sharpness of the lower bound obtained from metric graphs and is known in the special case ; the general assertion remains open.
