In real-world systems, the relationships and connections between components are highly complex. Real systems are often described as networks, where nodes represent objects in the system and edges represent relationships or connections…
Persistent (co)homology is a central construction in topological data analysis, where it is used to quantify prominence of features in data to produce stable descriptors suitable for downstream analysis. Persistence is challenging to…

We give an $O(n^2(k+\log n))$ algorithm for computing the $k$-dimensional persistent homology of a filtration of clique complexes of cyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. This is nearly quadratic in the number of vertices $n$, and therefore a…
We investigate to what extent persistent homology benefits from the properties of the usual homology theory.
The Euler characteristic is an invariant of a topological space that in a precise sense captures its canonical notion of size, akin to the cardinality of a set. The Euler characteristic is closely related to the homology of a space, as it…
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…
