In this paper we study a new metric for comparing Betti numbers functions in bidimensional persistent homology, based on coherent matchings, i.e. families of matchings that vary in a continuous way. We prove some new results about this…

We consider the problem of generating hypothesis from data based on ideas from logic. We introduce a notion of barcodes, which we call sequent barcodes, that mirrors the barcodes in persistent homology theory in topological data analysis.…

We redevelop persistent homology (topological persistence) from a categorical point of view. The main objects of study are diagrams, indexed by the poset of real numbers, in some target category. The set of such diagrams has an interleaving…
