The use of persistent homology in applications is justified by the validity of certain stability results. At the core of such results is a notion of distance between the invariants that one associates with data sets. Here we introduce a…

Persistent homology is a popular and useful tool for analysing finite metric spaces, revealing features that can be used to distinguish sets of unlabeled points and as input into machine learning pipelines. The famous stability theorem of…

The main result of this article is a geometric interpretation of magnitude, a real-valued invariant of metric spaces. We introduce a Euclidean embedding of a (suitable) finite metric space $X$ such that the magnitude of $X$ can be expressed…

In this article, we give a framework for studying the Euler characteristic and its categorification of objects across several areas of geometry, topology and combinatorics. That is, the magnitude theory of filtered sets enriched categories.…

We introduce a persistence-type invariant for finite weighted graphs based on combinatorial multivector dynamics. For each threshold parameter, a relation matrix determines a graph multivector field, whose induced directed dynamics admits a…

Hepworth, Willerton, Leinster and Shulman introduced the magnitude homology groups for enriched categories, in particular, for metric spaces. The purpose of this paper is to describe the magnitude homology group of a metric space in terms…

Magnitude is a measure of size defined for certain classes of metric spaces; it arose from ideas in category theory. In particular, magnitude is defined for compact subsets of Euclidean space and, in arXiv:1507.02502, Barcel\'o and Carbery…

One of the main objectives of topological data analysis is the study of discrete invariants for persistence modules, in particular when dealing with multiparameter persistence modules. In many cases, the invariants studied for these…

Persistent homology is a method for computing the topological features present in a given data. Recently, there has been much interest in the integration of persistent homology as a computational step in neural networks or deep learning. In…

A multiplication on persistence diagrams is introduced by means of Schubert calculus. The key observation behind this multiplication comes from the fact that the representation space of persistence modules has the structure of the Schubert…

Multiparameter persistence is a natural extension of the well-known persistent homology, which has attracted a lot of interest. However, there are major theoretical obstacles preventing the full development of this promising theory. In this…

We prove that the magnitude (co)homology of an enriched category can, under some technical assumptions, be described in terms of derived functors between certain abelian categories. We show how this statement is specified for the cases of…

In this work, we explore links between natural homology and persistent homology for the classification of directed spaces. The former is an algebraic invariant of directed spaces, a semantic model of concurrent programs. The latter was…

The magnitude of metric spaces does not appear to possess a simple, convenient continuity property, and previous studies have presented affirmative results under additional constraints or weaker notions, as well as counterexamples. In this…

Magnitude of a finite metric space and the related notion of magnitude functions on metric spaces is an active area of research in algebraic topology. Magnitude originally arose in the context of biology, where it represents the number of…

We prove that pointwise finite-dimensional S^1 persistence modules over an arbitrary field decompose uniquely, up to isomorphism, into the direct sum of a bar code and finitely-many Jordan cells. These persistence modules have also been…

Multidimensional persistence studies topological features of shapes by analyzing the lower level sets of vector-valued functions. The rank invariant completely determines the multidimensional analogue of persistent homology groups. We prove…

We study distributions of persistent homology barcodes associated to taking subsamples of a fixed size from metric measure spaces. We show that such distributions provide robust invariants of metric measure spaces, and illustrate their use…
