We discuss the algebra behind the matrix reduction algorithm for persistent homology, as presented in the paper ''Computing Persistent Homology'' by Afra Zomorodian and Gunnar Carlsson, in the lens of the more modern characterization of…
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…
This article grew out of the theoretical part of my Master's thesis at the Faculty of Mathematics and Information Science at Ruprecht-Karls-Universit\"at Heidelberg under the supervision of PD Dr. Andreas Ott. Following the work of G.…
Persistent homology was shown by Carlsson and Zomorodian to be homology of graded chain complexes with coefficients in the graded ring $\kk[t]$. As such, the behavior of persistence modules -- graded modules over $\kk[t]$ is an important…
We study the multi-dimensional persistence of Carlsson and Zomorodian and obtain a finer classification based upon the higher tor-modules of a persistence module. We propose a variety structure on the set of isomorphism classes of these…
In this work, we establish a representation theorem for multivariable totally symmetric functions: a multisymmetric continuous function must be the composition of a continuous function and a set of generators of the multisymmetric…
The stability theorem for persistent homology is a central result in topological data analysis. While the original formulation of the result concerns the persistence barcodes of $\mathbb{R}$-valued functions, the result was later cast in a…
This paper is a survey of persistent homology, primarily as it is used in topological data analysis. It includes the theory of persistence modules, as well as stability theorems for persistence barcodes, generalized persistence,…
We introduce persistence with an emphasis on its algebraic foundations, using the representation theory of posets. Linear representations of posets arise in several areas of mathematics, including the representation theory of quivers and…
We study the representation theory of the increasing monoid. Our results provide a fairly comprehensive picture of the representation category: for example, we describe the Grothendieck group (including the effective cone), classify…
We prove a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems which lets us prove representation stability and secondary homological stability for many families of groups with polynomial coefficients. This gives two…
A representation embedding between cartesian theories can be defined to be a functor between respective categories of models that preserves finitely-generated projective models and that preserves and reflects certain epimorphisms. This…
Most algorithms for computing persistent homology do so by tracking cycles that represent homology classes. There are many choices of such cycles, and specific choices have found different uses in applications. Although it is known that…
In this paper, we introduce and study representation homology of topological spaces, which is a natural homological extension of representation varieties of fundamental groups. We give an elementary construction of representation homology…
We define a class of multiparameter persistence modules that arise from a one-parameter family of functions on a topological space and prove that these persistence modules are stable. We show that this construction can produce…
We give an elementary introduction to our papers relating the geometry of rational homogeneous varieties to representation theory. We also describe related work and recent progress.
Symmetric homology is a natural generalization of cyclic homology, in which symmetric groups play the role of cyclic groups. In the case of associative algebras, the symmetric homology theory was introduced by Z. Fiedorowicz \cite{F} and…
We develop an axiomatic framework for persistent homology in any degree. We prove the existence and uniqueness for both a persistent version of the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms for classical homology and a reduced version of this set of…
A fundamental tool in topological data analysis is persistent homology, which allows extraction of information from complex datasets in a robust way. Persistent homology assigns a module over a principal ideal domain to a one-parameter…
In this article, we prove a representation theorem that any generic line arrangement in the plane over an ordered field which has global cyclicity can be represented isomorphically by a line arrangement with a given set of distinct slopes…
