Topology describes properties of physical systems that remain constant under continuous deformations. For infinite vector waves, global topological invariants in position space are typically associated with periodic patterns. We demonstrate…

We redevelop persistent homology (topological persistence) from a categorical point of view. The main objects of study are diagrams, indexed by the poset of real numbers, in some target category. The set of such diagrams has an interleaving…
