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…

For a finite set of balls of radius $r$, the $k$-fold cover is the space covered by at least $k$ balls. Fixing the ball centers and varying the radius, we obtain a nested sequence of spaces that is called the $k$-fold filtration of the…
