Homological mirror symmetry predicts that the Fukaya category of a symplectic manifold X can be matched with the derived category of coherent sheaves on a mirror space Y. The Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture states that X and Y should have dual Lagrangian torus fibrations, and that mirror symmetry can be recovered by reducing the symplectic and complex geometry of X and Y to tropical geometry on the base of the fibration. In this framework, we expect that Lagrangian fibers of X are mirror to skyscraper sheaves of points on Y, and that Lagrangian sections of the fibration are mirror to line bundles on Y. I will explain how to extend these correspondences to tropical Lagrangians in X and sheaves supported on cycles of intermediate dimension on toric varieties.
