We provide first a categorical exploration of, and then completion of the mapping of the relationships among, three fundamental perspectives on binary relations: as the incidence matrices of hypergraphs, as the formal contexts of concept…
We complete the theoretical framework required for the construction of a Morse homology theory for certain types of forced mean curvature flows. The main result of this paper describes the asymptotic behaviour of these flows as the forcing…
The present paper mainly presents, for example, explicit classifications of compact smooth manifolds having non-empty boundaries and simple structures where the dimensions are general. Studies of this type is fundamental and important. They…
Many branches of theoretical and applied mathematics require a quantifiable notion of complexity. One such circumstance is a topological dynamical system - which involves a continuous self-map on a metric space. There are many notions of…
In this paper, we introduce a novel persistence framework for Morse decompositions in Markov chains using combinatorial multivector fields. Our approach provides a structured method to analyze recurrence and stability in finite-state…
We study toposes of actions of monoids on sets. We begin with ordinary actions, producing a class of presheaf toposes which we characterize. As groundwork for considering topological monoids, we branch out into a study of supercompactly…
We present a family of complexes playing the same role, for homogeneous variational problems, that the horizontal parts of the variational bicomplex play for variational problems on a fibred manifold. We show that, modulo certain pullbacks,…
A partitioned process theory, as defined by Coecke, Fritz, and Spekkens, is a symmetric monoidal category together with an all-object-including symmetric monoidal subcategory. We think of the morphisms of this category as processes, and the…
Stable fold maps are fundamental tools in a generalization of the theory of Morse functions on smooth manifolds and its application to studies of topological properties of smooth manifolds. Round fold maps were introduced as stable fold…
This is the first of a series of papers that develop a systematic bridge between constructions in discrete mathematics and the corresponding continuous analogs. In this paper, we establish an equivalence between Forman's discrete Morse…
We present a method to compute integral cohomology of posets. This toolbox is applicable as soon as the sub-posets under each object possess certain structure. This is the case for simplicial complexes and simplex-like posets. The method is…
We can approximate a continuous self-map $f$ of a compact metric space by discretizing the space into a grid. Through either the map itself or a time series, $f$ induces a multivalued grid map $\mathcal F$. The dynamical properties of…
For deep learning problems on graph-structured data, pooling layers are important for down sampling, reducing computational cost, and to minimize overfitting. We define a pooling layer, nervePool, for data structured as simplicial…
This paper begins the study of Morse theory for orbifolds, or more precisely for differentiable Deligne-Mumford stacks. The main result is an analogue of the Morse inequalities that relates the orbifold Betti numbers of an almost-complex…
We give a new proof of the Morse Homology Theorem by constructing a chain complex associated to a Morse-Bott-Smale function that reduces to the Morse-Smale-Witten chain complex when the function is Morse-Smale and to the chain complex of…
A general method for constructing simplicial complex from observed time series of dynamical systems based on the delay coordinate reconstruction procedure is presented. The obtained simplicial complex preserves all pertinent topological…
We introduce a chain complex associated to a Liouville domain $(\overline{W}, d\lambda)$ whose boundary $Y$ admits a Boothby--Wang contact form (i.e. is a prequantization space). The differential counts cascades of Floer solutions in the…
We present an algorithm which produces a decomposition of a regular cellular complex with a discrete Morse function analogous to the Morse-Smale decomposition of a smooth manifold with respect to a smooth Morse function. The advantage of…
In the first part of this article, we give an analysis of the free monad sequence in non-cocomplete categories, with the needed colimits explicitly parametrized. This enables us to state a more finely grained functoriality principle for…
We propose an entropy function for simplicial complices. Its value gives the expected cost of the optimal encoding of sequences of vertices of the complex, when any two vertices belonging to the same simplex are indistinguishable. We show…
