We introduce a consistent estimator for the homology (an algebraic structure representing connected components and cycles) of level sets of both density and regression functions. Our method is based on kernel estimation. We apply this…

Homology features of spaces which appear in applications, for instance 3D meshes, are among the most important topological properties of these objects. Given a non-trivial cycle in a homology class, we consider the problem of computing a…

We prove that the factorization homologies of a scheme with coefficients in truncated polynomial algebras compute the cohomologies of its generalized configuration spaces. Using Koszul duality between commutative algebras and Lie algebras,…

The homological scaffold leverages persistent homology to construct a topologically sound summary of a weighted network. However, its crucial dependency on the choice of representative cycles hinders the ability to trace back global…

Persistent homology is a popular tool in Topological Data Analysis. It provides numerical characteristics of data sets which reflect global geometric properties. In order to be useful in practice, for example for feature generation in…

We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…

We explore an application of homological algebra to set theoretic objects by developing a cohomology theory for Hausdorff gaps. The cohomology theory is introduced with enough generality to be applicable to other questions in set theory.…

We prove a homological stability theorem for moduli spaces of simply-connected manifolds of dimension $2n > 4$, with respect to forming connected sum with $S^n \times S^n$. This is analogous to Harer's stability theorem for the homology of…

Topological data analysis is becoming increasingly relevant to support the analysis of unstructured data sets. A common assumption in data analysis is that the data set is a sample---not necessarily a uniform one---of some high-dimensional…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a version of singular homology based on smooth mappings of manifolds with corners. Although variants of such a theory exists in the literature, we felt that certain points were not adequately…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

We introduce a notion of density which extends both the notion of Lelong number and the theory of intersection for positive closed currents on Kaehler manifolds. For arbitrary finite family of positive closed currents on a compact Kaehler…

A standard problem in applied topology is how to discover topological invariants of data from a noisy point cloud that approximates it. We consider the case where a sample is drawn from a properly embedded C1-submanifold without boundary in…

This thesis addresses the theory of topological spaces and the foundations of persistence theory. We will discuss chain complexes and the associated simplicial homology groups, as well as their relationship with singular homology theory.…

In this paper we define and study a notion of discrete homology theory for metric spaces. Instead of working with simplicial homology, our chain complexes are given by Lipschitz maps from an $n$-dimensional cube to a fixed metric space. We…

Among plenty of applications, low-dimensional homogeneous spaces appear in cosmological models as both, classical factor spaces of multidimensional geometry and minisuperspaces in canonical quantization. Here a new tool to restrict their…

We introduce a homological approach to exhibiting instances of Stembridge's q=-1 phenomenon. This approach is shown to explain two important instances of the phenomenon, namely that of partitions whose Ferrers diagrams fit in a rectangle of…

This work concerns scalar field theories with topologically nontrivial vacuum manifold in rotationally symmetric backgrounds of arbitrary dimension. Lagrangians with canonical and generalized kinetic terms are considered, and a Bogomol'nyi…

We introduce the idea of *representation stability* (and several variations) for a sequence of representations V_n of groups G_n. A central application of the new viewpoint we introduce here is the importation of representation theory into…

A new method is given for computing generators of the homology groups with integer coefficients for any finite $T_0$-space. An important role in this method is played by irreducible cycles which are defined here and give rise to continuous…
