We present a sheaf-theoretic construction of shape space -- the space of all shapes. We do this by describing a homotopy sheaf on the poset category of constructible sets, where each set is mapped to its Persistent Homology Transform (PHT).…

Several possible presentations for the homotopy theory of (non-hypercomplete) $\infty$-stacks on a classical site S are discussed. In particular, it is shown that an elegant combinatorial description in terms of diagrams in S exists,…

A topological shape analysis is proposed and utilized to learn concepts that reflect shape commonalities. Our approach is two-fold: i) a spatial topology analysis of point cloud segment constellations within objects. Therein constellations…

For a filtered simplicial complex $K$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, the merge tree of the complement of $K$ induces a forest structure on the persistent homology $H_d(K)$ via Alexander duality. We prove that the connected components of…

We study Morse theory on noncompact manifolds equipped with exhaustions by compact pieces, defining the Morse homology of a pair which consists of the manifold and related geometric/homotopy data. We construct a collection of Morse data…

Persistence diagrams offer a way to summarize topological and geometric properties latent in datasets. While several methods have been developed that utilize persistence diagrams in statistical inference, a full Bayesian treatment remains…

In this note one shows that the four persistence diagrams and measures defined in [5] are particular cases of the maps and the measures discussed in [2] and [1]

We characterize structures such as monotonicity, convexity, and modality in smooth regression curves using persistent homology. Persistent homology is a key tool in topological data analysis that detects higher-dimensional topological…

Persistent homology analysis provides means to capture the connectivity structure of data sets in various dimensions. On the mathematical level, by defining a metric between the objects that persistence attaches to data sets, we can…

Symmetric homology is an analog of cyclic homology in which the cyclic groups are replaced by symmetric groups. The foundations for the theory of symmetric homology of algebras are developed in the context of crossed simplicial groups using…

Persistent homology computes the multiscale topology of a data set by using a sequence of discrete complexes. In this paper, we propose that persistent homology may be a useful tool for studying the structure of the landscape of string…

Persistent homology is a multiscale method for analyzing the shape of sets and functions from point cloud data arising from an unknown distribution supported on those sets. When the size of the sample is large, direct computation of the…

Persistent homology probes topological properties from point clouds and functions. By looking at multiple scales simultaneously, one can record the births and deaths of topological features as the scale varies. In this paper we use a…

We show that the category of N-complexes has a Str\om model structure, meaning the weak equivalences are the chain homotopy equivalences. This generalizes the analogous result for the category of chain complexes (N = 2). The trivial objects…

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),…

Let $M$ be a closed 4-manifold with $\pi_2(M)\cong{Z}$. Then $M$ is homotopy equivalent to either $CP^2$, or the total space of an orbifold bundle with general fibre $S^2$ over a 2-orbifold $B$, or the total space of an $RP^2$-bundle over…

We start with a simple introduction to topological data analysis where the most popular tool is called a persistent diagram. Briefly, a persistent diagram is a multiset of points in the plane describing the persistence of topological…

We study a spectral sequence that computes the (mod 2) S^1-equivariant homology of the free loop space LM of a manifold M (the "string homology" of M). Using it and knowledge of the string topology operations on the homology of LM, we…

The current work is motivated by the papers $[B_3]$, $[B_6]$, $[Be]$, $[Be-Tu]$. In particular, using Theorem 3.7 of $[B_3]$ and methods developed in this paper, the spectral and strong homology groups of continuous maps were defined and…

Given a space X, we study the homotopy type of ${\mathcal B}_n(X)$ the space obtained as "the union of all (n-1)-simplexes spanned by points in X". This is a space encountered in non-linear analysis under the name of "space of barycenters"…
