Tropical Branes
Abstract
We investigate canonically quantized open string solutions associated to the analytically continued action for the recently proposed tropical limit of topological A-type models, tropological sigma models, with various boundary conditions. These solutions naturally give rise to a non-relativistic counterpart of branes, which we name tropical branes. We provide a preliminary worldsheet description of these tropical branes, laying the groundwork for an upcoming paper that will explore the role of tropical branes in the context of brane quantization.
