We will review how divisors on abstract algebraic curves are connected with projective embeddings and then see how that language translates to tropical curves and tropicalization. This talk aims to explain some of the connections between tropical curves and algebraic curves that was not discussed during the seminar on tropical Brill-Noether theory.
