Abstract
The entropy of a semiring ideal of tropical polynomials is introduced. The radical of a semiring ideal consists of all tropical polynomials vanishing on the tropical prevariety determined by the ideal. We prove that the entropy of the radical of a tropical bivariate polynomial with zero coefficients vanishes. Also, we prove that the entropy of a zero-dimensional tropical prevariety vanishes. An example of a non-radical semiring ideal with a positive entropy is exhibited.
