Iterated Gilbert Mosaics and Poisson Tropical Plane Curves

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose an iterated version of the Gilbert model, which results in a sequence of random mosaics of the plane. We prove that under appropriate scaling, this sequence of mosaics converges to that obtained by a classical Poisson line process with explicit cylindrical measure. Our model arises from considerations on tropical plane curves, which are zeros of random tropical polynomials in two variables. In particular, the iterated Gilbert model convergence allows one to derive a scaling limit for Poisson tropical plane curves. Our work raises a number of open questions at the intersection of stochastic and tropical geometry.
