Valuated gaussoidsFor Theorem 7.1, we compute the tropical variety defined by the 18 trinomials -a12*a23+p2*a13-p*a13t2 a12*p13-a13*a23t1-p1*a12t3 -a12*p23+p2*a12t3+a23*a13t2 a12*p3-a23*a13-p*a12t3 -a13*p23+a23*a12t3+p3*a13t2 -a23*p13+p3*a23t1+a13*a12t3 -a23t1*a12t3-p13*a13t2+a13*p123 a23t1*p23+a12t3*a13t2-a23*p123 -p1*a23+a12*a13+p*a23t1 -p1*p2+a12^2+p*p12 p1*p3-a13^2-p*p13 -p12*a12t3-a23t1*a13t2+a12*p123 -p12*a13+a12*a23t1+p1*a13t2 p12*a23-p2*a23t1-a12*a13t2 -p12*p13+a23t1^2+p1*p123 p12*p23-a13t2^2-p2*p123 -p13*p23+a12t3^2+p3*p123 -p2*p3+a23^2+p*p23 We identify linear forms in the 14 unknowns a12, a12t3, a13, a13t2, a23, a23t1, p, p1, p12, p123, p13, p2, p23, p3 with vectors of length 14, with coordinates taken in the above order. The tropical variety is a 3-dimensional fan modulo its 4-dimensional lineality space. The 35 rays of this fan are found in trop3-rays.txt, organized into the 5 classes labeled a,p,A,B,C. The fan has 153 facets, represented by 147 triangles and 6 squares which
are listed in trop3-facets.txt. Each of the 6 squares
is represented by its 4 triangles, so the total list has length 171. For each maximal
cone, we list the types of rays, which cone in the Grassmannian The positive tropical variety in Figure 4 has 10 vertices, namely those
