Summary
We describe the space of Eisenbud-Harris limit linear series on a chain of elliptic curves and compare it with the theory of divisors on tropical chains. Either model allows to compute some invariants of Brill-Noether theory using combinatorial methods. We introduce effective limit linear series.
