The Fundamental Theorem of Tropical Differential Algebraic Geometry

Let $I$ be an ideal of the ring of Laurent polynomials $K[x_1^{\pm1},\ldots,x_n^{\pm1}]$ with coefficients in a real-valued field $(K,v)$. The fundamental theorem of tropical algebraic geometry states the equality $\text{trop}(V(I))=V(\text{trop}(I))$ between the tropicalization $\text{trop}(V(I))$ of the closed subscheme $V(I)\subset (K^*)^n$ and the tropical variety $V(\text{trop}(I))$ associated to the tropicalization of the ideal $\text{trop}(I)$. In this work we prove an analogous result for a differential ideal $G$ of the ring of differential polynomials $K[[t]]\{x_1,\ldots,x_n\}$, where $K$ is an uncountable algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We define the tropicalization $\text{trop}(\text{Sol}(G))$ of the set of solutions $\text{Sol}(G)\subset K[[t]]^n$ of $G$, and the set of solutions associated to the tropicalization of the ideal $\text{trop}(G)$. These two sets are linked by a tropicalization morphism $\text{trop}:\text{Sol}(G)\longrightarrow \text{Sol}(\text{trop}(G))$. We show the equality $\text{trop}(\text{Sol}(G))=\text{Sol}(\text{trop}(G))$, answering a question raised by D. Grigoriev earlier this year.
