Abstract
We consider a minimum enclosing and maximum inscribed tropical balls for any given tropical polytope over the tropical projective torus in terms of the tropical metric with the max-plus algebra. We show that we can obtain such tropical balls via linear programming. Then we apply minimum enclosing and maximum inscribed tropical balls of any given tropical polytope to estimate the volume of and sample uniformly from the tropical polytope.
期刊介绍：
Computational Geometry is a forum for research in theoretical and applied aspects of computational geometry. The journal publishes fundamental research in all areas of the subject, as well as disseminating information on the applications, techniques, and use of computational geometry. Computational Geometry publishes articles on the design and analysis of geometric algorithms. All aspects of computational geometry are covered, including the numerical, graph theoretical and combinatorial aspects. Also welcomed are computational geometry solutions to fundamental problems arising in computer graphics, pattern recognition, robotics, image processing, CAD-CAM, VLSI design and geographical information systems.
Computational Geometry features a special section containing open problems and concise reports on implementations of computational geometry tools.
