Reduction and lifting problem for differential forms on Berkovich curves

Given a complete real-valued field $k$ of residue characteristic zero, we study properties of a differential form $\omega$ on a smooth proper $k$-analytic curve $X$. In particular, we associate to $(X,\omega )$ a natural tropical reduction datum combining tropical data of $(X,\omega )$ and algebra-geometric reduction data over the residue field $\tilde{k}$. We show that this datum satisfies natural compatibility condition, and prove a lifting theorem asserting that any compatible tropical reduction datum lifts to an actual pair $(X,\omega )$. In particular, we obtain a short proof of the main result of a work [BCGGM20] by Bainbridge, Chen, Gendron, Grushevsky, and M"oller.
