Abstract

We give an algorithm, with a singly exponential complexity, deciding whether\na tropical linear prevariety is a tropical linear variety. The algorithm relies\non a criterion to be a tropical linear variety in terms of a duality between\nthe tropical orthogonalization A^\⊥ and the double tropical\northogonalization A\⊥ \⊥ of a subset A of the vector space\n( mathbb R \∪ \∞ )n. We also give an example of a countable\nfamily of tropical hyperplanes such that their intersection is not a tropical\nprevariety.\n
