A method to apply and visualize persistent homology of time series is proposed. The method captures persistent features in space and time, in contrast to the existing procedures, where one usually chooses one while keeping the other fixed.…

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 topological data analysis, persistent homology is used to study the "shape of data". Persistent homology computations are completely characterized by a set of intervals called a bar code. It is often said that the long intervals…

The homotopy group $\pi_{n-k} ({\bf C}^{n+1}-V)$ where $V$ is a hypersurface with a singular locus of dimension $k$ and good behavior at infinity is described using generic pencils. This is analogous to the van Kampen procedure for finding…

We develop persistent homology in the setting of filtrations of (Cech) closure spaces. Examples of filtrations of closure spaces include metric spaces, weighted graphs, weighted directed graphs, and filtrations of topological spaces. We use…

Exterior powers play important roles in persistent homology in computational geometry. In the present paper we study the problem of extracting the $K$ longest intervals of the exterior-power layers of a tame persistence module. We prove a…

The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…

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…

Persistent homology enables fast and computable comparison of topological objects. However, it is naturally limited to the analysis of topological spaces. We extend the theory of persistence, by guaranteeing robustness and computability to…

We give an explicit description of the homomorphism group H_n(p) of a strong type p in any stable theory under the assumption that for every non-forking extension q of p the groups H_i(q) are trivial for i at least 2 but less than n. The…

Inspired by a remarkable work of F\'{e}lix, Halperin and Thomas on the asymptotic estimation of the ranks of rational homotopy groups, and more recent works of Wu and the authors on local hyperbolicity, we prove two asymptotic formulae for…

The study of equality types is central to homotopy type theory. Characterizing these types is often tricky, and various strategies, such as the encode-decode method, have been developed. We prove a theorem about equality types of…

We present a development of the theory of higher groups, including infinity groups and connective spectra, in homotopy type theory. An infinity group is simply the loops in a pointed, connected type, where the group structure comes from the…
