A \v{C}ech complex of a finite simple graph $G$ is a nerve complex of balls in the graph, with one ball centered at each vertex. More precisely, let the \v{C}ech complex $\mathcal{N}(G,r)$ be the nerve of all closed balls of radius…

Vietoris-Rips and degree Rips complexes are represented as homotopy types by their underlying posets of simplices, and basic homotopy stability theorems are recast in these terms. These homotopy types are viewed as systems (or functors),…

For a sufficiently small scale $\beta>0$, the Vietoris$\unicode{x2013}$Rips complex $\mathcal{R}_\beta(S)$ of a metric space $S$ with a small Gromov$\unicode{x2013}$Hausdorff distance to a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ has been already…

The topological vacuum structure of the two-dimensional $~CP^{n-1}~$ model for $~n = 3,5,7~$ is studied on the lattice. In particular we investigate the small-volume limit on the torus as well as on the sphere and compare with continuum…

We study combinatorial connectivity for two models of random geometric complexes. These two models - \v{C}ech and Vietoris-Rips complexes - are built on a homogeneous Poisson point process of intensity $n$ on a $d$-dimensional torus using…

Classical methods to model topological properties of point clouds, such as the Vietoris-Rips complex, suffer from the combinatorial explosion of complex sizes. We propose a novel technique to approximate a multi-scale filtration of the Rips…

We begin the study the algebraic topology of semi-coarse spaces, which are generalizations of coarse spaces that enable one to endow non-trivial `coarse-like' structures to compact metric spaces, something which is impossible in coarse…

A petal diagram of a knot is a projection with a single multi-crossing such that there are no nested loops. The petal number $p(K)$ of a knot $K$ is the minimum number of loops among all petal diagrams of $K$. Let $T_{n,s}$ denote the…

Bouc (1992) first studied the topological properties of $M_n$, the matching complex of the complete graph of order $n$, in connection with Brown complexes and Quillen complexes. Bj\"{o}rner et al. (1994) showed that $M_n$ is homotopically…

We prove that a space whose topological complexity equals 1 is homotopy equivalent to some odd-dimensional sphere. We prove a similar result, although not in complete generality, for spaces X whose higher topological complexity TC_n(X) is…

We consider the problem of homotopy-type reconstruction of compact subsets $X\subset\R^N$ that have the Alexandrov curvature bounded above ($\leq$ $\kappa$) in the intrinsic length metric. The reconstructed spaces are in the form of…

We present a new, inductive construction of the Vietoris-Rips complex, in which we take advantage of a small amount of unexploited combinatorial structure in the $k$-skeleton of the complex in order to avoid unnecessary comparisons when…

There has been considerable recent interest, primarily motivated by problems in applied algebraic topology, in the homology of random simplicial complexes. We consider the scenario in which the vertices of the simplices are the points of a…

The independence complex of a graph is a simplicial complex whose faces correspond to the independent sets of $G$. While independence complexes have been studied extensively for many graph classes, including square grid graphs, relatively…

We introduce toric arrangements, essentially finite families of codimension 1 subtori of a torus or of their cosets, as a periodic generalization of hyperplane arrangements, compute cohomology of the complement of such an arrangement and…

In \cite{BSV}, Borisov, Salamon and Viaclovsky constructed non-standard orthogonal complex structures on flat tori $T^{2n}_{\mathbb R}$ for any $n\geq 3$. We will call these examples BSV-tori. In this note, we show that on a flat $6$-torus,…

It was proven by Gonz\'alez-Meneses, Manch\'on and Silvero that the extreme Khovanov homology of a link diagram is isomorphic to the reduced (co)homology of the independence simplicial complex obtained from a bipartite circle graph…

For an action of a compact torus $T$ on a smooth compact manifold~$X$ with isolated fixed points the number $\frac{1}{2}\dim X-\dim T$ is called the complexity of the action. In this paper we study certain examples of torus actions of…

We compute the homotopy type of the space of embeddings of convex disks with Legendrian boundary into a tight contact $3$-manifold, whenever the sum of the absolute value of the rotation number of the boundary with the Thurston-Bennequin…

We determine the homotopy types of the independence complexes of the $(n \times 6)$-square grid graphs. In fact, we show that these complexes are homotopy equivalent to wedges of spheres.
