Multidimensional persistence has been proposed to study the persistence of topological features in data indexed by multiple parameters. In this work, we further explore its algebraic complications from the point of view of higher…
We study the rational homology of the Deligne--Mumford compactification $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ of the moduli space of stable curves via a family of Morse functions, namely the $\text{sys}_T$ functions. Exploiting the geometric and…
We reformulate the persistent (co)homology of simplicial filtrations, viewed from a more algebraic setting, namely as the (co)homology of a chain complex of graded modules over polynomial ring $K[t]$. We also define persistent (co)homology…
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 propose a new way of thinking about one parameter persistence. We believe topological persistence is fundamentally not about decomposition theorems but a central role is played by a choice of metrics. Choosing a pseudometric between…
One of the main reasons for topological persistence being useful in data analysis is that it is backed up by a stability (isometry) property: persistence diagrams of $1$-parameter persistence modules are stable in the sense that the…
We can approximate a continuous self-map $f$ of a compact metric space by discretizing the space into a grid. Through either the map itself or a time series, $f$ induces a multivalued grid map $\mathcal F$. The dynamical properties of…
When filtering a topological space by a single parameter, the theory of quiver representations provides a complete framework for decomposing the resulting persistence module to obtain its barcode. This is achieved by interpreting the…
Motivated by the need to relate the biparameter persistence module induced by a pair of scalar functions with the monoparameter persistence modules induced by each function separately, we introduce a construction that defines a kind of…
We define a simple, explicit map sending a morphism $f:M \rightarrow N$ of pointwise finite dimensional persistence modules to a matching between the barcodes of $M$ and $N$. Our main result is that, in a precise sense, the quality of this…
A theory of modules over posets is developed to define computationally feasible, topologically interpretable data structures, in terms of birth and death of homology classes, for persistent homology with multiple real parameters. To replace…
This paper addresses two questions: (a) can we identify a sensible class of 2-parameter persistence modules on which the rank invariant is complete? (b) can we determine efficiently whether a given 2-parameter persistence module belongs to…
We characterize the class of persistence modules indexed over $\mathbb{R}^2$ that are decomposable into summands whose support have the shape of a {\em block}---i.e. a horizontal band, a vertical band, an upper-right quadrant, or a…
Persistence modules stratify their underlying parameter space, a quality that make persistence modules amenable to study via invariants of stratified spaces. In this article, we extend a result previously known only for one-parameter…
In this paper, we introduce a novel persistence framework for Morse decompositions in Markov chains using combinatorial multivector fields. Our approach provides a structured method to analyze recurrence and stability in finite-state…
Persistent homology analysis provides means to capture the connectivity structure of data sets in various dimensions. On the mathematical level, by defining a metric between the objects that persistence attaches to data sets, we can…
Persistent homology is a popular tool in Topological Data Analysis. It provides numerical characteristics of data sets which reflect global geometric properties. In order to be useful in practice, for example for feature generation in…
A persistence module $M$, with coefficients in a field $\mathbb{F}$, is a finite-dimensional linear representation of an equioriented quiver of type $A_n$ or, equivalently, a graded module over the ring of polynomials $\mathbb{F}[x]$. It is…
Multiparameter persistent homology has been largely neglected as an input to machine learning algorithms. We consider the use of lattice-based convolutional neural network layers as a tool for the analysis of features arising from…
We consider different notions of equivalence for Morse functions on the sphere in the context of persistent homology, and introduce new invariants to study these equivalence classes. These new invariants are as simple, but more discerning…
