Popis: We develop notions of valuations on a semiring, with a view toward extending the classical theory of abstract nonsingular curves and discrete valuation rings to this general algebraic setting; the novelty of our approach lies in the implementation of hyperrings to yield a new definition (\emph{hyperfield valuation}). In particular, we classify valuations on the semifield $\mathbb{Q}_{max}$ (the max-plus semifield of rational numbers) and also valuations on the `function field' $\mathbb{Q}_{max}(T)$ (the semifield of rational functions over $\mathbb{Q}_{max}$) which are trivial on $\mathbb{Q}_{max}$. We construct and study the abstract curve associated to $\mathbb{Q}_{max}(T)$ in relation to the projective line $\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{F}_1}$ over the field with one element $\mathbb{F}_{1}$ and the tropical projective line. Finally, we discuss possible connections to tropical curves and Berkovich's theory of analytic spaces.
Comment: 24 pages, updated and extended, in the current version the tropical projective line is interpreted as an abstract curve in the semiring setting
