We consider the topology of simplicial complexes with vertices the points of a random point process and faces determined by distance relationships between the vertices. In particular, we study the Betti numbers of these complexes as the…

We prove a symmetric version of B\'ezout's theorem. More precisely, we show that the symmetric orbit type of a transverse intersection of complex symmetric hypersurfaces in projective space is determined by the degrees. In the projective…

Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…

The predictions of mean-field electrodynamics can now be probed using direct numerical simulations of random flows and magnetic fields. When modelling astrophysical MHD, it is important to verify that such simulations are in agreement with…

The graph projection of a hypergraph is a simple graph with the same vertex set and with an edge between each pair of vertices that appear in a hyperedge. We consider the problem of reconstructing a random $d$-uniform hypergraph from its…

We consider the task of topology discovery of sparse random graphs using end-to-end random measurements (e.g., delay) between a subset of nodes, referred to as the participants. The rest of the nodes are hidden, and do not provide any…

The paper consists of lecture notes for a mini-course given by the authors at the G\"okova Geometry \& Topology conference in May 2014. We start the exposition with tropical curves in the plane and their applications to problems in…

Parameter prediction is essential for many applications, facilitating insightful interpretation and decision-making. However, in many real life domains, such as power systems, medicine, and engineering, it can be very expensive to acquire…

How can we design neural networks that allow for stable universal approximation of maps between topologically interesting manifolds? The answer is with a coordinate projection. Neural networks based on topological data analysis (TDA) use…

Explicit formulas determining the dimension and the degree of the singular subscheme of hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb P}^n$ are given in terms of the graded Betti numbers of the minimal free resolution of the corresponding Jacobian algebra.…

This note is a survey on the topology of hyperplane arrangements. We mainly focus on the relationship between topology and the real structure, such as adjacent relations of chambers and stratifications related to real structures.

Random geometric graphs are random graph models defined on metric spaces. Such a model is defined by first sampling points from a metric space and then connecting each pair of sampled points with probability that depends on their distance,…

Many real-world networks of interest are embedded in physical space. We present a new random graph model aiming to reflect the interplay between the geometries of the graph and of the underlying space. The model favors configurations with…

Amit and Linial showed that a random lift of a graph with minimum degree $\delta\ge3$ is asymptotically almost surely $\delta$-connected, and mentioned the problem of estimating this probability as a function of the degree of the lift. We…

Here we prove some special cases of the following conjecture: that the sum of the Betti numbers of a 1-connected elliptic space is greater than the total rank of its homotopy groups. Our main tool is Sullivan's minimal model.

We describe topology of random simplicial complexes in the lower and upper models in the medial regime, i.e. under the assumption that the probability parameters $p_\sigma$ approach neither $0$ nor $1$. We show that nontrivial Betti numbers…

This work addresses a modification of the random geometric graph (RGG) model by considering a set of points uniformly and independently distributed on the surface of a $(d-1)$-sphere with radius $r$ in a $d-$dimensional Euclidean space,…

This paper concerns constructing topological sigma models governing maps from semirigid super Riemann surfaces to general target supermanifolds. We define both the A model and B model in this general setup by defining suitable BRST…
