We introduce a new notion of persistence modules endowed with operators. It encapsulates the additional structure on Floer-type persistence modules coming from the intersection product with classes in the ambient (quantum) homology, along…

Interleaving distances provide a fundamental tool for comparing persistence modules and have been widely used in topological data analysis. Their definitions are typically based on translation structures (shift operations) on the indexing…

Topological data analysis uses tools from topology -- the mathematical area that studies shapes -- to create representations of data. In particular, in persistent homology, one studies one-parameter families of spaces associated with data,…

In recent work, generalized persistence modules have proved useful in distinguishing noise from the legitimate topological features of a data set. Algebraically, generalized persistence modules can be viewed as representations for the poset…

This paper explores persistence modules for circle-valued functions, presenting a new extension of the interleaving and bottleneck distances in this setting. We propose a natural generalisation of barcodes in terms of arcs on a geometric…

Modern representation learning increasingly relies on unsupervised and self-supervised methods trained on large-scale unlabeled data. While these approaches achieve impressive generalization across tasks and domains, evaluating embedding…

We say a model is continuous in utilities (resp., preferences) if small perturbations of utility functions (resp., preferences) generate small changes in the model's outputs. While similar, these two questions are different. They are only…
