Two important invariants of directed graphs, namely magnitude homology and path homology, have recently been shown to be intimately connected: there is a 'magnitude-path spectral sequence' or 'MPSS' in which magnitude homology appears as…

We describe various path homology theories constructed for a directed hypergraph. We introduce the category of directed hypergraphs and the notion of a homotopy in this category. Also, we investigate the functoriality and the homotopy…

In recent years, A. Grigor'yan, Y. Lin, Y. Muranov and S.T. Yau [6, 7, 8, 9] constructed a path homology theory for digraphs. Later, S. Chowdhury and F. Memoli [3] studied the persistent path homology for directed networks. In this paper,…

In this article, we show that magnitude homology and path homology are closely related, and we give some applications. We define differentials ${\mathrm MH}^{\ell}_k(G) \longrightarrow {\mathrm MH}^{\ell-1}_{k-1}(G)$ between magnitude…

We introduce Mayer path homology, a new homology theory for directed path complexes obtained by equipping path complexes with an $N$-nilpotent differential. The main novelty of this work is the introduction of an $N$-differential on path…

The fundamental group of a directed graph admits a natural sequence of quotient groups called $r$-fundamental groups, and the $r$-fundamental groups can capture properties of a directed graph that the fundamental group cannot capture. The…

Hypergraphs are mathematical models for many problems in data sciences. In recent decades, the topological properties of hypergraphs have been studied and various kinds of (co)homologies have been constructed (cf. [3, 4, 12]). In this…

The magnitude of a graph can be thought of as an integer power series associated to a graph; Leinster introduced it using his idea of magnitude of a metric space. Here we introduce a bigraded homology theory for graphs which has the…

Magnitude is a numerical invariant of metric spaces and graphs, analogous, in a precise sense, to Euler characteristic. Magnitude homology is an algebraic invariant constructed to categorify magnitude. Among the important features of the…
