In order to be able to use methods of Universal Algebra for investigating posets, we assign to every pseudocomplemented poset, to every relatively pseudocomplemented poset and to every sectionally pseudocomplemented poset a certain algebra…

In this article we describe the Auslander-Reiten quiver for some posets with an involution, that we call types $\mathfrak{U}_n$ and $\mathfrak{U}_\infty$. These posets appear in the differentiation III of Zavadskij [12]. We follow the…

We construct C-algebras for a class of surfaces that are inverse images of certain polynomials of arbitrary degree. By using the directed graph associated to a matrix, the representation theory can be understood in terms of ``loop'' and…

The theory of multidimensional persistence captures the topology of a multifiltration -- a multiparameter family of increasing spaces. Multifiltrations arise naturally in the topological analysis of scientific data. In this paper, we give a…

Covering theory is an important tool in representation theory of algebras, however, the results and the proofs are scattered in the literature. We give an introduction to covering theory at a level as elementary as possible.

Persistent homology is an important methodology in topological data analysis which adapts theory from algebraic topology to data settings. Computing persistent homology produces persistence diagrams, which have been successfully used in…

Given an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic zero, we study the incidence relation between points and irreducible projective curves, or more precisely the poset of irreducible proper subvarieties of $\mathbb P^2(K)$. Answering…

We consider different notions of equivalence for Morse functions on the sphere in the context of persistent homology, and introduce new invariants to study these equivalence classes. These new invariants are as simple, but more discerning…

We prove a version of the fundamental theorems of Morse Theory in the setting of finite spaces or partially ordered sets. By using these results we extend Forman's discrete Morse theory to more general cell complexes and derive the…

We survey results in algebraic complexity theory, focusing on matrix multiplication. Our goals are (i.) to show how open questions in algebraic complexity theory are naturally posed as questions in geometry and representation theory, (ii.)…

Assume that a finite set of points is randomly sampled from a subspace of a metric space. Recent advances in computational topology have provided several approaches to recovering the geometric and topological properties of the underlying…

This work concerns the theoretical foundations of persistence-based topological data analysis. We develop theory of topological inference in the multidimensional persistence setting, and directly at the (topological) level of filtrations…

Persistent homology is a tool that can be employed to summarize the shape of data by quantifying homological features. When the data is an object in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the (augmented) persistent homology transform ((A)PHT) is a family of…

Persistent homology is a topological data analysis tool that has been widely generalized, extending its scope beyond the field of topology. Among its extensions, steady and ranging persistence were developed to study a wide variety of graph…
