We also characterize those determinants whose tropicalization with respect to the variables of a row is irreducible.10 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Mathematical Society (AMS), 2009PolinomisGeometria algebraicaPolynomialsAlgebraic geometryinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article5741972016-03-10info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
