Convergence theory is an extension of general topology. In contrast with topology, it is closed under some important operations, like exponentiation. With all its advantages, convergence theory remains rather unknown. It is an aim of this…

The intrinsic connection between lattice theory and topology is fairly well established, For instance, the collection of open subsets of a topological subspace always forms a distributive lattice. Persistent homology has been one of the…

Great part of the interest in complex networks has been motivated by the presence of structured, frequently non-uniform, connectivity. Because diverse connectivity patterns tend to result in distinct network dynamics, and also because they…

We investigate the properties of chain recurrent, chain transitive, and chain mixing maps (generalizations of the well-known notions of non-wandering, topologically transitive, and topologically mixing maps). We describe the structure of…

Most real-world networks are embedded in latent geometries. If a node in a network is found in the vicinity of another node in the latent geometry, the two nodes have a disproportionately high probability of being connected by a link. The…

In this short note, a topos - called the topos of the connectivity space - is associated with every such space.

We study the homomorphism induced in homology by a closed correspondence between topological spaces, using projections from the graph of the correspondence to its domain and codomain. We provide assumptions under which the homomorphism…

This paper introduces a novel topology, referred to as the star topology, on finite graphs. By treating vertices and edges as points in a unified space, we explore continuous maps between Bare representations of a graph and their…

Natural data offer a hard challenge to data analysis. One set of tools is being developed by several teams to face this difficult task: Persistent topology. After a brief introduction to this theory, some applications to the analysis and…

We study conditions under which a space that has a good property and a courser topology with another good property admits a continuous bijection onto a space with both properties.

We call a function $f: X\to Y$ $P$-preserving if, for every subspace $A \subset X$ with property $P$, its image $f(A)$ also has property $P$. Of course, all continuous maps are both compactness- and connectedness-preserving and the natural…

Long lived topological features are distinguished from short lived ones (considered as topological noise) in simplicial complexes constructed from complex networks. A new topological invariant, persistent homology, is determined and…

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…
