I'm reading "Introduction to Tropical Geometry" by Maclagan and Sturmfels and wanted to do some plotting myself of different tropical varieties in both 2D and 3D. On my computer, I have installed Polymake and SAGE (which should contain Gfan). I have tried reading the documentation for both programs but find them hard to follow. Does anyone have a more elaborate guide to plotting tropical varieties or maybe some examples of code?

Here are two references, which contains guides and examples in Polymake:

  • Appendix C in Essentials of Tropical Combinatorics by Michael Joswig.

  • Tropical Computations in Polymake by Simon Hampe and Michael Joswig.
