For a $P$-indexed persistence module ${\sf M}$, the (generalized) rank of ${\sf M}$ is defined as the rank of the limit-to-colimit map for the diagram of vector spaces of ${\sf M}$ over the poset $P$. For $2$-parameter persistence modules,…

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…

Commutative diagrams of vector spaces and linear maps over $\mathbb{Z}^2$ are objects of interest in topological data analysis (TDA) where this type of diagrams are called 2-parameter persistence modules. Given that quiver representation…

The classical persistence algorithm computes the unique decomposition of a persistence module implicitly given by an input simplicial filtration. Based on matrix reduction, this algorithm is a cornerstone of the emergent area of topological…

When a category $\mathcal{C}$ satisfies certain conditions, we define the notion of rank invariant for arbitrary poset-indexed functors $F:\mathbf{P} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}$ from a category theory perspective. This generalizes the standard…

Although there is no doubt that multi-parameter persistent homology is a useful tool to analyse multi-variate data, efficient ways to compute these modules are still lacking in the available topological data analysis toolboxes. Other issues…

We define two notions. The first one is a $rank\ compression\ system$ $\xi$ for a finite poset $\mathbf{P}$ that assigns each interval subposet $I$ to an order-preserving map $\xi_I \colon I^{\xi} \to \mathbf{P}$ satisfying some conditions,…

We believe three ingredients are needed for further progress in persistence and its use: invariants not relying on decomposition theorems to go beyond 1-dimension, outcomes suitable for statistical analysis and a setup adopted for…

We first introduce the notion of meta-rank for a 2-parameter persistence module, an invariant that captures the information behind images of morphisms between 1D slices of the module. We then define the meta-diagram of a 2-parameter…

For any persistence module $M$ over a finite poset $\mathbf{P}$, and any interval $I$ of $\mathbf{P}$, we give a formula for the multiplicity $d_M(V_I)$ of the interval module $V_I$ in the indecomposable decomposition of $M$ in terms of the…

In addition to inherent computational challenges, the absence of a canonical method for quantifying `persistence' in multi-parameter persistent homology remains a hurdle in its application. One of the best known quantifications of…

We study decomposable N^d-indexed persistence modules via higher dimensional partitions. Their barcodes are defined in terms of the extended interior of the corresponding Young diagrams. For two decomposable N^d-indexed persistence modules,…

In this work, we propose a new invariant for $2$D persistence modules called the compressed multiplicity and show that it generalizes the notions of the dimension vector and the rank invariant. In addition, for a $2$D persistence module…

It has been shown that $1$-parameter persistence modules have a very simple classification, namely there is a discrete invariant called a barcode that completely characterizes $1$-parameter persistence modules up to isomorphism. In…

Persistence modules that decompose into interval modules are important in topological data analysis because we can interpret such intervals as the lifetime of topological features in the data. We can classify the settings in which…

Multiparameter persistence modules can be uniquely decomposed into indecomposable summands. Among these indecomposables, intervals stand out for their simplicity, making them preferable for their ease of interpretation in practical…

Zigzag persistence is a powerful extension of the standard persistence which allows deletions of simplices besides insertions. However, computing zigzag persistence usually takes considerably more time than the standard persistence. We…

We develop some aspects of the homological algebra of persistence modules, in both the one-parameter and multi-parameter settings, considered as either sheaves or graded modules. The two theories are different. We consider the graded module…

In the persistent homology of filtrations, the indecomposable decompositions provide the persistence diagrams. However, in almost all cases of multidimensional persistence, the classification of all indecomposable modules is known to be a…

In persistent homology analysis, interval modules play a central role in describing the birth and death of topological features across a filtration. In this work, we extend this setting, and propose the use of bipath persistent homology,…
