Persistence modules are representations of products of totally ordered sets in the category of vector spaces. They appear naturally in the representation theory of algebras, but in recent years they have also found applications in other…
We determine the homological residue fields, in the sense of tensor-triangular geometry, in a series of concrete examples ranging from topological stable homotopy theory to modular representation theory of finite groups.
The Parameter Continuation Theorem is the theoretical foundation for polynomial homotopy continuation, which is one of the main tools in computational algebraic geometry. In this note, we give a short proof using Gr\"obner bases. Our…
The subject of persistent homology has vitalized applications of algebraic topology to point cloud data and to application fields far outside the realm of pure mathematics. The area has seen several fundamentally important results that are…
The proalgebraic fundamental group of a connected topological space $X$, recently introduced by the first author, is an affine group scheme whose representations classify local systems of finite-dimensional vector spaces on $X$. In this…
Many datasets can be viewed as a noisy sampling of an underlying space, and tools from topological data analysis can characterize this structure for the purpose of knowledge discovery. One such tool is persistent homology, which provides a…
Given a compact geodesic space $X$ we apply the fundamental group and alternatively the first homology group functor to the corresponding Rips or \v{C}ech filtration of $X$ to obtain what we call a persistence. This paper contains the…
Coarse geometry, and in particular coarse homotopy theory, has proven to be a powerful tool for approaching problems in geometric group theory and higher index theory. In this paper, we continue to develop theory in this area by proving a…
One of the prime motivation for topology was Homotopy theory, which captures the general idea of a continuous transformation between two entities, which may be spaces or maps. In later decades, an algebraic formulation of topology was…
Building on To\"en's work on affine stacks, we develop a certain homotopy theory for schemes, which we call "unipotent homotopy theory." Over a field of characteristic $p>0$, we prove that the unipotent homotopy group schemes…
A method is presented for the distributed computation of persistent homology, based on an extension of the generalized Mayer-Vietoris principle to filtered spaces. Cellular cosheaves and spectral sequences are used to compute global…
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…
We study the categorical framework for the computation of persistent homology, without reliance on a particular computational algorithm. The computation of persistent homology is commonly summarized as a matrix theorem, which we call the…
Persistent homology is a central methodology in topological data analysis that has been successfully implemented in many fields and is becoming increasingly popular and relevant. The output of persistent homology is a persistence diagram --…
The Seifert-van Kampen theorem computes the fundamental group of a space from the fundamental groups of its constituents. We develop a modular SVK framework within the setting of computational paths - an approach to equality where witnesses…
In this paper we define and study a notion of discrete homology theory for metric spaces. Instead of working with simplicial homology, our chain complexes are given by Lipschitz maps from an $n$-dimensional cube to a fixed metric space. We…
We study robust properties of zero sets of continuous maps $f:X\to\mathbb{R}^n$. Formally, we analyze the family $Z_r(f)=\{g^{-1}(0):\,\,\|g-f\|<r\}$ of all zero sets of all continuous maps $g$ closer to $f$ than $r$ in the max-norm. The…
The space of deformations of the integer Heisenberg group under the action of $\textrm{Aut}(H(\mathbb{R}))$ is a homogeneous space for a non-reductive group. We analyze its structure as a measurable dynamical system and obtain mean and…
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…
In this paper, we construct and study derived character maps of finite-dimensional representations of $\infty$-groups. As models for $\infty$-groups we take homotopy simplicial groups, i.e. homotopy simplicial algebras over the algebraic…
