Linkages are mechanical devices constructed from rigid bars and freely rotating joints studied both for their utility in engineering and as mathematical idealizations in a number of physical systems. Recently, there has been a resurgence of…

We apply methods of topological analysis to the attention graphs, calculated on the attention heads of the BERT model ( arXiv:1810.04805v2 ). Our research shows that the classifier built upon basic persistent topological features (namely,…

The persistent Betti numbers are used in topological data analysis to infer the scales at which topological features appear and disappear in the filtration of a topological space. Most commonly by means of the corresponding barcode or…

The empirical results suggest that the learnability of a neural network is directly related to its size. To mathematically prove this, we borrow a tool in topological algebra: Betti numbers to measure the topological geometric complexity of…

The purpose of this document is to provide data about known Betti numbers of unordered configuration spaces of small graphs in order to guide research and avoid duplicated effort. It contains information for connected multigraphs having at…

Given an elliptic self-adjoint pseudo-differential operator $P$ bounded from below, acting on the sections of a Riemannian line bundle over a smooth closed manifold $M$ equipped with some Lebesgue measure, we estimate from above, as $L$…

In this paper we study topological invariants of a class of random groups. Namely, we study right angled Artin groups associated to random graphs and investigate their Betti numbers, cohomological dimension and topological complexity. The…

Random simplicial complexes, as generalizations of random graphs, have become increasingly popular in the literature in recent years. In this paper, we consider a new model for a random simplicial complex that was introduced in…

We present the relation between the genus in cosmology and the Betti numbers for excursion sets of three- and two-dimensional smooth Gaussian random fields, and numerically investigate the Betti numbers as a function of threshold level.…

Topology describes properties of physical systems that remain constant under continuous deformations. For infinite vector waves, global topological invariants in position space are typically associated with periodic patterns. We demonstrate…

We introduce a natural class of models of random chain complexes of real vector spaces that some classical ensembles of random matrices, the length $1$ case. We are interested here in the homological properties of these random complexes.…

Persistent Betti numbers are a major tool in persistent homology, a subfield of topological data analysis. Many tools in persistent homology rely on the properties of persistent Betti numbers considered as a two-dimensional stochastic…

This paper studies the configuration space of all possible positions of a linkage in R^n. For example, it shows that for every compact algebraic set, there is a linkage whose configuration space is analytically isomorphic to a finite number…

We study random knots and links in R^3 using the Petaluma model, which is based on the petal projections developed by Adams et al. (2012). In this model we obtain a formula for the distribution of the linking number of a random…

We study the expected topological properties of Cech and Vietoris-Rips complexes built on i.i.d. random points in R^d. We find higher dimensional analogues of known results for connectivity and component counts for random geometric graphs.…

We suggest a new random model for links based on meander diagrams and graphs. We then prove that trivial links appear with vanishing probability in this model, no link $L$ is obtained with probability 1, and there is a lower bound for the…
