Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable compact surface. Denote by $F(M,S^1)$ the space of all Morse functions $f:M\to S^1$ having no critical points on the boundary of $M$ and such that for every boundary component $V$ of $M$ the…

We consider discontinuous operations of a group $G$ on a contractible $n$-dimensional manifold $X$. Let $E$ be a finite dimensional representation of $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristics 0. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the sheaf on the quotient…

We construct a deformed Morse complex computing the equivariant cohomology of a manifold M endowed with a smooth S^1-action. The deformation of the coboundary operator is given by counting gradient flow lines of a Morse function f that are…

This paper extends Alexander duality to the setting of parametrized homology. Let X with be a compact subset of R^n x R (n \geq 2) satisfying certain conditions, let Y be its complement, and let p be the projection onto the second factor.…

In this paper we present a new approach to computing homology (with field coefficients) and persistent homology. We use concepts from discrete Morse theory, to provide an algorithm which can be expressed solely in terms of simple graph…

In the 1950s Morse defined the analogue of Morse functions for topological manifolds. In many instances, when mathematicians are using techniques on topological manifolds that appear to be Morse-theoretic in nature, there is a topological…

In Mathematical Morphology (MM), connected filters based on dynamics are used to filter the extrema of an image. Similarly, persistence is a concept coming from Persistent Homology (PH) and Morse Theory (MT) that represents the stability of…

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…

In~\cite{rotvandervorst} a homology theory --Morse-Conley-Floer homology-- for isolated invariant sets of arbitrary flows on finite dimensional manifolds is developed. In this paper we investigate functoriality and duality of this homology…

In this paper we use the gradient flow equation introduced in [10] to construct a Morse complex for the Hamiltonian action $\mathbb A_H$ on a mixed regularity space of loops in the cotangent bundle $T^*M$ of a closed manifold $M$.…

We introduce topological conditions on a broad class of functionals that ensure that the persistent homology modules of their associated sublevel set filtration admit persistence diagrams, which, in particular, implies that they satisfy…

We consider a Stein manifold $M$ of dimension $\geq 2$ and a compact subset $K\subset M$ such that $M'=M\backslash K$ is connected. Let $S$ be a compact differential manifold, and let $M_S$, resp. $M'_S$ stand for the complex manifold of…

We study properties of the continuation map for the Morse fundamental group $\pi_1^\text{Morse}(f,\ast)$ associated to a Morse-Smale pair $(f,g)$ on a manifold $M$. We get a morphism between $\pi_1^\text{Morse}(f_1,\ast_1)$ and…

Let $U$ be a smooth connected complex algebraic variety, and let $f\colon U\to \mathbb C^*$ be an algebraic map. To the pair $(U,f)$ one can associate an infinite cyclic cover $U^f$, and (homology) Alexander modules are defined as the…

We define a class of multiparameter persistence modules that arise from a one-parameter family of functions on a topological space and prove that these persistence modules are stable. We show that this construction can produce…

We prove a geometric refinement of Alexander duality for certain 2-complexes, the so-called gropes, embedded into 4-space. This refinement can be roughly formulated as saying that 4-dimensional Alexander duality preserves the disjoint Dwyer…

We prove an Alexander-type duality for valuations for certain subcomplexes in the boundary of polyhedra. These strengthen and simplify results of Stanley (1974) and Miller-Reiner (2005). We give a generalization of Brion's theorem for this…

We will define the Alexander duality for strongly stable ideals. More precisely, for a strongly stable ideal $I \subset \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ with ${\rm deg}(\mathsf{m}) \le d$ for all $\mathsf{m} \in G(I)$, its dual $I^* \subset…

We study sublevel set and superlevel set persistent homology on discrete functions through the perspective of finite ordered sets of both linearly ordered and cyclically ordered domains. Finite ordered sets also serve as the codomain of our…

Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1, and f:M-->P be a smooth mapping. In a previous series of papers for the case when f is a Morse map the author calculated the homotopy types of…
