Summary: | International audience Develin and Sturmfels showed that regular triangulations of $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$ can be thought of as tropical polytopes. Tropical oriented matroids were defined by Ardila and Develin, and were conjectured to be in bijection with all subdivisions of $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$. In this paper, we show that any triangulation of $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$ encodes a tropical oriented matroid. We also suggest a new class of combinatorial objects that may describe all subdivisions of a bigger class of polytopes. Develin et Sturmfels ont montré que les triangulations de $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$ peuvent être considérées comme des polytopes tropicaux. Les matroïdes orientés tropicaux ont été définis par Ardila et Develin, et ils ont été conjecturés être en bijection avec les subdivisions de $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$. Dans cet article, nous montrons que toute triangulation de $\Delta_{n-1} \times \Delta_{d-1}$ encode un matroïde orienté tropical. De plus, nous proposons une nouvelle classe d'objets combinatoires qui peuvent décrire toutes les subdivisions d'une plus grande classe de polytopes. |
