Abstract

Consider a finite connected graph possibly with multiple edges and loops. In discrete geometric analysis, Kotani and Sunada constructed the crystal associated to the graph as a standard realization of the maximal abelian covering of the graph. As an application of what the author showed in an earlier paper with Seshadri as a by-product of Geometric Invariant Theory, he shows that the Voronoi tiling (also known as the Wigner-Seitz tiling) is hidden in the crystal, that is, the crystal does not intrude the interiors of the top-dimensional Voronoi cells. The result turns out to be closely related to the tropical Abel-Jacobi map of the associated compact tropical curve.
