We develop new aspects of the homological algebra theory for persistence modules, in both the one-parameter and multi-parameter settings. For a poset $P$ and an order preserving map $\varphi:P\times P\to P$, we introduce a novel tensor…

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…

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…

We introduce lifespan functors, which are endofunctors on the category of persistence modules that filter out intervals from barcodes according to their boundedness properties. They can be used to classify injective and projective objects…

The persistence barcode is a topological descriptor of data that plays a fundamental role in topological data analysis. Given a filtration of the space of data, a persistence barcode tracks the evolution of its homological features. In this…

Persistent homology is typically computed through persistent cohomology. While this generally improves the running time significantly, it does not facilitate extraction of homology representatives. The mentioned representatives are…

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…

Matrix reduction is the standard procedure for computing the persistent homology of a filtered simplicial complex with $m$ simplices. Its output is a particular decomposition of the total boundary matrix, from which the persistence diagrams…

We present a parallelizable algorithm for computing the persistent homology of a filtered chain complex. Our approach differs from the commonly used reduction algorithm by first computing persistence pairs within local chunks, then…

This paper is a survey of persistent homology, primarily as it is used in topological data analysis. It includes the theory of persistence modules, as well as stability theorems for persistence barcodes, generalized persistence,…

We give an $O(n^2(k+\log n))$ algorithm for computing the $k$-dimensional persistent homology of a filtration of clique complexes of cyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. This is nearly quadratic in the number of vertices $n$, and therefore a…

We define notions of differentiability for maps from and to the space of persistence barcodes. Inspired by the theory of diffeological spaces, the proposed framework uses lifts to the space of ordered barcodes, from which derivatives can be…

Persistent homology, a central tool of topological data analysis, provides invariants of data called barcodes (also known as persistence diagrams). A barcode is simply a multiset of real intervals. Recent work of Edelsbrunner, Jablonski,…

Given finite metric spaces $(X, d_X)$ and $(Y, d_Y)$, we investigate the persistent homology $PH_*(X \times Y)$ of the Cartesian product $X \times Y$ equipped with the sum metric $d_X + d_Y$. Interpreting persistent homology as a module…
