For two general polytopal complexes the set of face-wise affine maps between them is shown to be a polytopal complex in an algorithmic way. The resulting algorithm for the affine hom-complex is analyzed in detail. There is also a natural…
In this article we investigate the question which local symmetry preserving operations can not only preserve, but also increase the symmetry of a polyhedral map. Often operations that can increase symmetry, can nevertheless not do so for…
The Discrete Morse Theory of Forman appeared to be useful for providing filtration-preserving reductions of complexes in the study of persistent homology. So far, the algorithms computing discrete Morse matchings have only been used for…
We consider the problem of approximating a two-dimensional shape contour (or curve segment) using discrete assembly systems, which allow to build geometric structures based on limited sets of node and edge types subject to edge length and…
In this paper we study monomial multiple structures on a linear subspace of codimension two in projective space. We show that these structures determine smooth points in their respective Hilbert schemes, with (smooth) neighbourhoods of two…
We show the existence of bilimits of 2-cofiltered diagrams of topoi, generalizing the construction of cofiltered bilimits developed in "SGA 4 Springer LNM 270 (1972)". For any given such diagram, we show that it can be represented by a…
We relate the maximum semidefinite and linear extension complexity of a family of polytopes to the cardinality of this family and the minimum pairwise Hausdorff distance of its members. This result directly implies a known lower bound on…
We consider polyhedral approximations of strictly convex compacta in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces (such compacta are also uniformly convex). We obtain the best possible estimates for errors of considered approximations in the…
We give a new algorithm of slow continued fraction expansion related to any real cubic number field as a 2-dimensional version of the Farey map. Using our algorithm, we can find the generators of dual substitutions (so-called tiling…
Let $K$ be a finite simplicial, cubical, delta or CW complex. The persistence map $\mathrm{PH}$ takes a filter $f:K \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ as input and returns the barcodes $\mathrm{PH}(f)$ of the associated sublevel set persistent…
A new formula is obtained in algebraic topology, in terms of Betti numbers, and a new method, called the spinal method, is suggested and developed for generating quadrangulations of closed orientable surfaces. Those surfaces arise as the…
We consider minimization problems with bisubmodular objective functions. We propose valid inequalities, namely the poly-bimatroid inequalities, and provide a complete linear description of the convex hull of the epigraph of a bisubmodular…
The problem of constructing a limit series of Penrose type partitions of a two-dimensional sphere is solved, which makes it possible to model quasicrystals possessing a point icosahedral group symmetry Ih. Images of polyhedron models are…
2-level polytopes naturally appear in several areas of pure and applied mathematics, including combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, communication complexity, and statistics. In this paper, we present a study of some 2-level…
We construct algebras from rhombohedral tilings of Euclidean space obtained as projections of certain cubical complexes. We show that these `Cubist algebras' satisfy strong homological properties, such as Koszulity and quasi-heredity,…
Given a space X we study the topology of the space of embeddings of X into $\mathbb{R}^d$ through the combinatorics of triangulations of X. We give a simple combinatorial formula for upper bounds for the largest dimension of a sphere that…
We develop novel methods for using persistent homology to infer the homology of an unknown Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ from a point cloud sampled from an arbitrary smooth probability density function. Standard distance-based filtered…
We propose an extension of the classical union-of-balls filtration of persistent homology: fixing a point $q$, we focus our attention to a ball centered at $q$ whose radius is controlled by a second scale parameter. We discuss an absolute…
Let $p \geq 2$ be a prime, and $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the field with $p$ elements. Extending a result of Seidel for $p=2,$ we construct an isomorphism between the Floer cohomology of an exact or Hamiltonian symplectomorphism $\phi,$ with…
The Rips filtration over a finite metric space and its corresponding persistent homology are prominent methods in TDA to summarise the shape of data. Crucial to their use is the bottleneck stability result. A generalisation of the Rips…
