Simplicial complexes (SCs) have become a popular abstraction for analyzing complex data using tools from topological data analysis or topological signal processing. However, the analysis of many real-world datasets often leads to dense SCs,…
Persistence diagrams provide stable, interpretable summaries of geometric and topological structure and are useful for simulation-based inference when low-order statistics miss key information. Yet persistence-based pipelines require…
The microstructure critically governs the properties of materials used in energy and chemical engineering technologies, from catalysts and filters to thermal insulators and sensors. Therefore, accurate design is based on quantitative…
We study combinatorial connectivity for two models of random geometric complexes. These two models - \v{C}ech and Vietoris-Rips complexes - are built on a homogeneous Poisson point process of intensity $n$ on a $d$-dimensional torus using…
Multi-objective optimization problems require simultaneously optimizing two or more objective functions. Many studies have reported that the solution set of an M-objective optimization problem often forms an (M-1)-dimensional topological…

We define a new framework that unifies the filtration and mapper approaches from TDA, and present efficient algorithms to compute it. Termed the box filtration of a PCD, we grow boxes (hyperrectangles) that are not necessarily centered at…
It is well known that ordinary persistence on graphs can be computed more efficiently than the general persistence. Recently, it has been shown that zigzag persistence on graphs also exhibits similar behavior. Motivated by these results, we…
We describe a data structure, a rectangular complex, that can be used to represent hyperconvex metric spaces that have the same topology (although not necessarily the same distance function) as subsets of the plane. We show how to use this…
A central problem in topological data analysis is that of computing the homology of a given simplicial complex. Said complexes can have arbitrary large number of simplices, as can happen, for example, if the space is the Rips-Vietoris or…
0-dimensional persistent homology is known, from a computational point of view, as the easy case. Indeed, given a list of $n$ edges in non-decreasing order of filtration value, one only needs a union-find data structure to keep track of the…
The matching distance is a computationally tractable topological measure to compare multi-filtered simplicial complexes. We design efficient algorithms for approximating the matching distance of two bi-filtered complexes to any desired…
For a sufficiently small scale $\beta>0$, the Vietoris$\unicode{x2013}$Rips complex $\mathcal{R}_\beta(S)$ of a metric space $S$ with a small Gromov$\unicode{x2013}$Hausdorff distance to a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ has been already…
A tower is a sequence of simplicial complexes connected by simplicial maps. We show how to compute a filtration, a sequence of nested simplicial complexes, with the same persistent barcode as the tower. Our approach is based on the coning…
In this article we propose a novel approach for comparing the persistent homology representations of two spaces (filtrations). Commonly used methods are based on numerical summaries such as persistence diagrams and persistence landscapes,…
There has been considerable recent interest, primarily motivated by problems in applied algebraic topology, in the homology of random simplicial complexes. We consider the scenario in which the vertices of the simplices are the points of a…
Graphs are a basic tool for the representation of modern data. The richness of the topological information contained in a graph goes far beyond its mere interpretation as a one-dimensional simplicial complex. We show how topological…
Persistent homology has been devised as a promising tool for the topological simplification of complex data. However, it is computationally intractable for large data sets. In this work, we introduce multiresolution persistent homology for…
