We study the probabilistic convergence between the mapper graph and the Reeb graph of a topological space $\mathbb{X}$ equipped with a continuous function $f: \mathbb{X} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. We first give a categorification of the…

In this article, we study the question of the statistical convergence of the 1-dimensional Mapper to its continuous analogue, the Reeb graph. We show that the Mapper is an optimal estimator of the Reeb graph, which gives, as a byproduct, a…

Mapper is an algorithm that summarizes the topological information contained in a dataset and provides an insightful visualization. It takes as input a point cloud which is possibly high-dimensional, a filter function on it and an open…

Reeb graphs provide a method for studying the shape of a manifold by encoding the evolution and arrangement of level sets of a simple Morse function defined on the manifold. Since their introduction in computer graphics they have been…

Mapper is an unsupervised machine learning algorithm generalising the notion of clustering to obtain a geometric description of a dataset. The procedure splits the data into possibly overlapping bins which are then clustered. The output of…

The stability result, as stated, is incorrect. In particular, the 1-dimensional extended persistence diagrams of a finely-triangulated simplicial complex X equipped with a continuous real-valued function f, and its one-skeleton graph G…

A Reeb graph is a graphical representation of a scalar function on a topological space that encodes the topology of the level sets. A Reeb space is a generalization of the Reeb graph to a multiparameter function. In this paper, we propose…

We propose a modification of the Mapper algorithm that removes the assumption of a single resolution scale across semantic space and improves the robustness of the results under change of parameters. Our work is motivated by datasets where…

This paper concerns piecewise-smooth maps on $\mathbb{R}^d$ that are continuous but not differentiable on switching manifolds (where the functional form of the map changes). The stability of fixed points on switching manifolds is…

Given a map $f:X \to M$ from a topological space $X$ to a metric space $M$, a decorated Reeb space consists of the Reeb space, together with an attribution function whose values recover geometric information lost during the construction of…

A $d$-dimensional (bar-and-joint) framework $(G,p)$ consists of a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a realisation $p:V\to \mathbb{R}^d$. It is rigid if every continuous motion of the vertices which preserves the lengths of the edges is induced by an…

A class of graphs $\mathscr{C}$ is monadically stable if for any unary expansion $\widehat{\mathscr{C}}$ of $\mathscr{C}$, one cannot interpret, in first-order logic, arbitrarily long linear orders in graphs from $\widehat{\mathscr{C}}$. It…

Monadic stability and the more general monadic dependence (or NIP) are tameness conditions for classes of logical structures, studied in the 80's in Shelah's classification program in model theory. They recently emerged in algorithmic and…

A standard way of approximating or discretizing a metric space is by taking its Rips complexes. These approximations for all parameters are often bound together into a filtration, to which we apply the fundamental group or the first…
