The conjecture on tritangent planes to tropical sextic curves
The conjecture on tritangent planes to tropical sextic curves
Let be a tropical sextic curve of genus in . Two tritangent planes to are equivalent when they determine equivalent tangency divisors on . Tritangent-plane conjecture. Every tropical sextic curve of genus in has exactly equivalence classes of tritangent planes. The preceding theorem proves the upper bound of , and proves equality when the tropical curve is the tropicalization of a sextic on a smooth quadric in ; the conjecture asserts equality without that algebraizability hypothesis.
