We introduce the weighted path homology on the category of weigh\-ted directed hypergraphs and describe conditions of homotopy invariance of weighted path homology groups. We give several examples that explain the nontriviality of the…
The Representation Theorem by Zomorodian and Carlsson has been the starting point of the study of persistent homology under the lens of algebraic representation theory. In this work, we give a more accurate statement of the original theorem…
Recently, persistent homology has had tremendous success in biomolecular data analysis. It works by examining the topological relationship or connectivity of a group of atoms in a molecule at a variety of scales, then rendering a family of…
We introduce two new homology theories of orbifolds from some special type of triangulations adapted to an orbifold, called AW-homology and DW-homology. The main idea in the definitions of these two homology theories is that we use…
This paper aims to discuss a method of quantifying the 'shape' of data, via a methodology called topological data analysis. The main tool within topological data analysis is persistent homology; this is a means of measuring the shape of…
Directed graphs arise in many applications where computing persistent homology helps to encode the shape and structure of the input information. However, there are only a few ways to turn the directed graph information into an undirected…
Persistent homology provides a robust methodology to infer topological structures from point cloud data. Here we explore the persistent homology of point clouds embedded into a probabilistic setting, exploiting the theory of point…
Persistent homology is a popular technique in topological data analysis that tracks the lifespans of homological features in a nested sequence of spaces. This data is typically presented in a multi-set called a persistence diagram or a…
A crucial step in the analysis of persistent homology is the transformation of data into an appropriate topological object (in our case, a simplicial complex). Modern packages for persistent homology often construct Vietoris--Rips or other…
To compute the persistent homology of a grayscale digital image one needs to build a simplicial or cubical complex from it. For cubical complexes, the two commonly used constructions (corresponding to direct and indirect digital…
The field of mathematical morphology offers well-studied techniques for image processing. In this work, we view morphological operations through the lens of persistent homology, a tool at the heart of the field of topological data analysis.…
A stable homology theory is defined for completely distributive CSL algebras in terms of the point-neighbourhood homology of the partially ordered set of meet-irreducible elements of the invariant projection lattice. This specialises to the…
Duality results connecting persistence modules for absolute and relative homology provides a fundamental understanding into persistence theory. In this paper, we study similar associations in the context of zigzag persistence. Our main…
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…
The one-term distributive homology was introduced by J.H.Przytycki as an atomic replacement of rack and quandle homology, which was first introduced and developed by R.Fenn, C.Rourke and B.Sanderson, and J.S.Carter, S.Kamada and M.Saito.…
A topological shape analysis is proposed and utilized to learn concepts that reflect shape commonalities. Our approach is two-fold: i) a spatial topology analysis of point cloud segment constellations within objects. Therein constellations…
Persistent homology is a widely used tool in Topological Data Analysis that encodes multiscale topological information as a multi-set of points in the plane called a persistence diagram. It is difficult to apply statistical theory directly…
We set up the theory for a distributed algorithm for computing persistent homology. For this purpose we develop linear algebra of persistence modules. We present bases of persistence modules, and give motivation as for the advantages of…
We demonstrate that an excision property holds for persistent homology groups. This property holds for a large class of filtrations, and in fact we show that given any filtration on a larger space, we can extend it to a filtration of two…
In many scientific and technological contexts we have only a poor understanding of the structure and details of appropriate mathematical models. We often, therefore, need to compare different models. With available data we can use formal…
