Many simplicial complexes arising in practice have an associated metric space structure on the vertex set but not on the complex, e.g. the Vietoris-Rips complex in applied topology. We formalize a remedy by introducing a category of…
Characterizing the homotopy types of the Vietoris--Rips complexes of a metric space $X$ is in general a difficult problem. The Vietoris--Rips metric thickening, a metric space analogue of the Vietoris--Rips complex, was introduced as a…
We study the persistent homology of random \v{C}ech complexes. Generalizing a method of Penrose for studying random geometric graphs, we first describe an appropriate theoretical framework in which we can state and address our main…
By proving that several new complexes of embedded disks are highly connected, we obtain several new homological stability results. Our main result is homological stability for topological chiral homology on an open manifold with…
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…
Persistent homology has emerged as a novel tool for data analysis in the past two decades. However, there are still very few shapes or even manifolds whose persistent homology barcodes (say of the Vietoris-Rips complex) are fully known.…
Persistence diagrams are useful displays that give a summary information regarding the topological features of some phenomenon. Usually, only one persistence diagram is available, and replicated persistence diagrams are needed for…
We study a family of invariants of compact metric spaces that combines the Curvature Sets defined by Gromov in the 1980s with Vietoris-Rips Persistent Homology. For given integers $k\geq 0$ and $n\geq 1$ we consider the dimension $k$…
Let $A$ be a noetherian connected graded algebra. We introduce and study homological invariants that are weighted sums of the homological and internal degrees of cochain complexes of graded $A$-modules, providing weighted versions of…
Computation of the simplicial complexes of a large point cloud often relies on extracting a sample, to reduce the associated computational burden. The study considers sampling critical points of a Morse function associated to a point cloud,…
Vietoris-Rips metric thickenings have previously been proposed as an alternate approach to understanding Vietoris-Rips simplicial complexes and their persistent homology. Recent work has shown that for totally bounded metric spaces,…
We explain how to interpret the complexes arising in the "classical" homology stability argument (e.g. in the framework of Randal-Williams--Wahl) in terms of higher algebra, which leads to a new proof of homological stability in this…
The so called \v{C}ech and Vietoris-Rips simplicial filtrations are designed to capture information about the topological structure of metric datasets. These filtrations are two of the workhorses in the field of topological data analysis.…
Given a sample $Y$ from an unknown manifold $X$ embedded in Euclidean space, it is possible to recover the homology groups of $X$ by building a Vietoris--Rips or \v{C}ech simplicial complex on top of the vertex set $Y$. However, these…
Associated to every group with a weak spherical Tits system of rank n+1 with an appropriate rank n subgroup, we construct a relative spectral sequence involving group homology of Levi subgroups of both groups. Using the fact that such Levi…
We prove homological stability for standard unitary groups over R, C and H and for general linear groups over skew-fields with infinite centre. We focus on the similarities and differences of these proofs. Both proofs are due to Chih-Han…
We prove Conjecture F from [VW12] which states that the complements of closures of certain strata of the symmetric power of a smooth irreducible complex variety exhibit rational homological stability. Moreover, we generalize this conjecture…
There has been considerable recent interest, primarily motivated by problems in applied algebraic topology, in the homology of random simplicial complexes. We consider the scenario in which the vertices of the simplices are the points of a…
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…
We give bounds for dimension 0 persistent homology and codimension 1 homology of Vietoris--Rips, alpha, and cubical complex filtrations from finite sets related by enrichment (adding new elements), sparsification (removing elements), and…
