A central problem in topological data analysis is that of computing the homology of a given simplicial complex. Said complexes can have arbitrary large number of simplices, as can happen, for example, if the space is the Rips-Vietoris or…
This paper provides a self-contained exploration of subdivisions of simplicial complexes, with emphasis on barycentric subdivision. We present formal definitions of subdivisions, show how the realization of a complex is preserved under…
Stellar astrophysics relies on diverse observational modalities-primarily photometric light curves and spectroscopic data from which fundamental stellar properties are inferred. While machine learning (ML) has advanced analysis within…
Star clusters are ideal tracers of star formation activity in systems outside the volume that can be studied using individual, resolved stars. These unresolved clusters span orders of magnitude in brightness and mass, and their formation is…
Tangle structure trees, introduced in [3], offer a unified data structure that displays all the tangles of a graph or data set together with certificates for the non-existence of any other tangles, either locally or overall. In this paper…
Lifting is an efficient technique to scale up graphical models generalized to relational domains by exploiting the underlying symmetries. Concurrently, neural models are continuously expanding from grid-like tensor data into structured…
High-dimensional neural activity often reside in a low-dimensional subspace, referred to as neural manifolds. Grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex provide a periodic spatial code that are organized near a toroidal manifold,…
Traditional studies of stellar clusters in external galaxies use surface photometry and therefore focus on systems that are still bright and compact enough to be separated from the stellar background. Consequently, the latter stages of…
Spectral clustering requires the time-consuming decomposition of the Laplacian matrix of the similarity graph, thus limiting its applicability to large datasets. To improve the efficiency of spectral clustering, a top-down approach was…
Analyzing embedded simplicial complexes, such as triangular meshes and graphs, is an important problem in many fields. We propose a new approach for analyzing embedded simplicial complexes in a subdivision-invariant and isometry-invariant…
In a previous work a procedure was decribed for dividing the $3 \times N$-dimensional conformational space of a molecular system into a number of discrete cells, this partition allowed the building of a combinatorial structure from data…
We extend Bj\"orner's characterization of the face poset of finite CW complexes to a certain class of stratified spaces, called cylindrically normal stellar complexes. As a direct consequence, we obtain a discrete analogue of cell…
Datasets with non-trivial large scale topology can be hard to embed in low-dimensional Euclidean space with existing dimensionality reduction algorithms. We propose to model topologically complex datasets using vector bundles, in such a way…

Modular structure is pervasive in many complex networks of interactions observed in natural, social and technological sciences. Its study sheds light on the relation between the structure and function of complex systems. Generally speaking,…

The modular decomposition of a symmetric map $\delta\colon X\times X \to \Upsilon$ (or, equivalently, a set of symmetric binary relations, a 2-structure, or an edge-colored undirected graph) is a natural construction to capture key features…
Time-varying inhomogeneities on stellar surfaces constitute one of the largest sources of radial velocity (RV) error for planet detection and characterization. We show that stellar variations, because they manifest on coherent, rotating…
