Dey and Xin (J.Appl.Comput.Top., 2022, arXiv:1904.03766) describe an algorithm to decompose finitely presented multiparameter persistence modules using a matrix reduction algorithm. Their algorithm only works for modules whose generators…

We consider a large class of random geometric graphs constructed from samples $\mathcal{X}_n = \{X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n\}$ of independent, identically distributed observations of an underlying probability measure $\nu$ on a bounded domain…

In this paper we define a novel edit distance for merge trees, which we argue to be suitable for a good range of applications. Relying also on some technical results contained in other works, we investigate its stability properties, which…

A $1$-Lipschitz map between compact metric spaces $f\colon X\to Y$ induces a homomorphism of persistence modules on degree-$d$ Vietoris--Rips persistent homology. We define the persistent cost of $f$ from this induced homomorphism by…

Designing efficient, effective, and consistent metric clustering algorithms is a significant challenge attracting growing attention. Traditional approaches focus on the stability of cluster centers; unfortunately, this neglects the…

We introduce a notion of distance between supervised learning problems, which we call the Risk distance. This distance, inspired by optimal transport, facilitates stability results; one can quantify how seriously issues like sampling bias,…

Motivated both by theoretical and practical considerations in topological data analysis, we generalize the $p$-Wasserstein distance on barcodes to multiparameter persistence modules. For each $p\in [1,\infty]$, we in fact introduce two such…

The purpose of the present paper is to establish explicit bounds on moderate deviation probabilities for a rather general class of geometric functionals enjoying the stabilization property, under Poisson input and the assumption of a…

The Euclidean k-means problem is arguably the most widely-studied clustering problem in machine learning. While the k-means objective is NP-hard in the worst-case, practitioners have enjoyed remarkable success in applying heuristics like…

Persistence modules stratify their underlying parameter space, a quality that make persistence modules amenable to study via invariants of stratified spaces. In this article, we extend a result previously known only for one-parameter…

First, we prove that a random metric space can be isometrically embedded into a complete random normed module, as an application of which, it is easy to see that the notion of $d$-$\sigma$-stability introduced for a nonempty subset of a…
