The purpose of this work is to develop a version of Forman's discrete Morse theory for simplicial complexes, based on internal strong collapses. Classical discrete Morse theory can be viewed as a generalization of Whitehead's collapses,…

We present a Morse-theoretic characterization of collapsibility for 2-dimensional acyclic simplicial complexes by means of the values of normalized optimal combinatorial Morse functions.

A spectral sequence is defined which converges to the \v{C}ech cohomology of the Euclidean hull of a tiling of the plane with Euclidean finite local complexity. The terms of the second page are determined by the so-called ePE homology and…

Inspired by the works of Forman on discrete Morse theory, which is a combinatorial adaptation to cell complexes of classical Morse theory on manifolds, we introduce a discrete analogue of the stratified Morse theory of Goresky and…

We say that a pure $d$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta$ on $n$ vertices is \emph{shelling completable} if $\Delta$ can be realized as the initial sequence of some shelling of $\Delta_{n-1}^{(d)}$, the $d$-skeleton of the…

Discrete Morse theory emerged as an essential tool for computational geometry and topology. Its core structures are discrete gradient fields, defined as acyclic matchings on a complex $C$, from which topological and geometrical informations…

Many fundamental structures of Riemannian geometry have found discrete counterparts for graphs or combinatorial ones for simplicial complexes. These include those discussed in this survey, Hodge theory, Morse theory, the spectral theory of…

We collect three observations on the homology for Smale spaces defined by Putnam. The definition of such homology groups involves four complexes. It is shown here that a simple convergence theorem for spectral sequences can be used to prove…

The question of shellability of complexes of directed trees was asked by R. Stanley. D. Kozlov showed that the existence of a complete source in a directed graph provides a shelling of its complex of directed trees. We will show that this…

We generalize Forman's discrete Morse theory to the context of symmetric $\Delta$-complexes. As an application, we prove that the coloop subcomplex of the link of the origin $LA^{\mathrm{trop},\mathrm{P}}_g$ in the moduli space of…

We develop a recursive formula for counting the number of rectangulations of a square, i.e the number of combinatorially distinct tilings of a square by rectangles. Our formula specializes to give a formula counting generic rectangulations,…

We construct an equivariant version of discrete Morse theory for simplicial complexes endowed with group actions. The key ingredient is a 2-categorical criterion for making acyclic partial matchings on the quotient space compatible with an…

Let $A$ be a quasi-hereditary algebra. We prove that in many cases, a tilting module is rigid (i.e. has identical radical and socle series) if it does not have certain subquotients whose composition factors extend more than one layer in the…

The Spectre is an aperiodic monotile for the Euclidean plane that is truly chiral in the sense that it tiles the plane without any need for a reflected tile. The topological and dynamical properties of the Spectre tilings are very similar…

Shellings of simplicial complexes have long been a useful tool in topological and algebraic combinatorics. Shellings of a complex expose a large amount of information in a helpful way, but are not easy to construct, often requiring deep…

There are two rather distinct approaches to Morse theory nowadays: smooth and discrete. We propose to study a real valued function by assembling all associated sections in a topological category. From this point of view, Reeb functions on…
