We study mathematical expectations of Betti numbers of configuration spaces of planar linkages, viewing the lengths of the bars of the linkage as random variables. Our main result gives an explicit asymptotic formulae for these mathematical…

Betti numbers of configuration spaces of mechanical linkages (known also as polygon spaces) depend on a large number of parameters -- the lengths of the bars of the linkage. Motivated by applications in topological robotics, statistical…

We asymptotically estimate from above the expected Betti numbers of random real hypersurfaces in smooth real projective manifolds. Our upper bounds grow as the square root of the degree of the hypersurfaces as the latter grows to infinity,…

This paper is an introductory and informal exposition on the topology of polygonal meshes. We begin with a broad overview of topological notions and discuss how homeomorphisms, homotopy, and homology can be used to characterise topology. We…

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 $L$…

We study homological properties of random quadratic monomial ideals in a polynomial ring $R = {\mathbb K}[x_1, \dots x_n]$, utilizing methods from the Erd\"{o}s-R\'{e}nyi model of random graphs. Here for a graph $G \sim G(n, p)$ we consider…

Asymptotic normality is frequently observed in large combinatorial structures, rigorously established for many quantities such as cycles or inversions in random permutations, the number of prime factors of random integers, and various…

We compute the Betti numbers of the geometric spaces associated to nonrational simple convex polytopes and find that they depend on the combinatorial type of the polytope exactly as in the rational case. This shows that the combinatorial…

For any $\ell > 0$, we present an algorithm which takes as input a semi-algebraic set, $S$, defined by $P_1 \leq 0,...,P_s \leq 0$, where each $P_i \in \R[X_1,...,X_k]$ has degree $\leq 2,$ and computes the top $\ell$ Betti numbers of $S$,…

An exact computation of the persistent Betti numbers of a submanifold $X$ of a Euclidean space is possible only in a theoretical setting. In practical situations, only a finite sample of $X$ is available. We show that, under suitable…

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.…

This note concerns the asymptotics of the expected total Betti numbers of the nodal set for an important class of Gaussian ensembles of random fields on Riemannian manifolds. By working with the limit random field defined on the Euclidean…

We represent excursion sets of smooth random fields as unions of a topological basis consisting of a sequence of simply and multiply connected compact subsets of the underlying manifold. The associated coefficients, which are non-negative…

In a closed manifold of positive dimension $n$, we estimate the expected volume and Euler characteristic for random submanifolds of codimension $r\in \{1,...,n\}$ in two different settings. On one hand, we consider a closed Riemannian…

It is well-known that the Eulerian polynomials, which count permutations in $S_n$ by their number of descents, give the $h$-polynomial/$h$-vector of the simple polytopes known as permutohedra, the convex hull of the $S_n$-orbit for a…

We bound from above the expected total Betti number of a high degree random real hypersurface in a smooth real projective manifold. This upper bound is deduced from the equirepartition of critical points of a real Lefschetz pencil…

We study the convergence of volume-normalized Betti numbers in Benjamini-Schramm convergent sequences of non-positively curved manifolds with finite volume. In particular, we show that if $X$ is an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact…
