A tropical determinant is a concept in tropical geometry that generalizes the classical notion of a determinant, where the standard operations of addition and multiplication are replaced with tropical addition (taking the minimum) and tropical multiplication (addition). This redefinition allows for the calculation of determinants in a way that reveals combinatorial structures and relationships in a tropical setting, connecting it to other concepts such as tropical rank and Cramer's rule.
congrats on reading the definition of Tropical Determinant. now let's actually learn it.
