In algebraic geometry, a tropical compactification is a compactification (projective completion) of a subvariety of an algebraic torus, introduced by Jenia Tevelev. Given an algebraic torus and a connected closed subvariety of that torus, a compatification of the subvariety is defined as a closure of it in a toric variety of the original torus. The concept of a tropical compatification arises when trying to make compactifications as "nice" as possible. For a torus , a toric variety , the compatification is tropical when the map is faithfully flat and is proper. (Wikipedia).
What is length contraction? Length contraction gives the second piece (along with time dilation) of the puzzle that allows us to reconcile the fact that the speed of light is constant in all reference frames.

Teach Astronomy - Dynamics of Expansion
http://www.teachastronomy.com/ General relativity makes a strong connection between the dynamics of the universal expansion, which is to say the rate of increase of the size with time, the density of matter, and the curvature of space itself. In an empty universe space is not curved. The
