Tropicalization of Fock's inverse spectral transform
Abstract
The dimer spectral transform gives algebro-geometric action-angle coordinates for cluster integrable systems. Fock gave an explicit formula for its inverse. We study Fock's inverse map in the tropical limit where Harnack spectral curves degenerate to nodal curves. We determine the leading order asymptotics of the classical objects appearing in Fock's formula and show that they are governed by their tropical counterparts. This yields a tropical inverse spectral transform on tropical spectral data. We show that Fock's inverse spectral transform commutes with tropicalization, and also derive a tropical version of Fay's trisecant identity.
