In this paper the cosheaf homology is investigated from different viewpoints: the behavior under site morphisms, connections with Cech homology via spectral sequences, and description of cosheaf homology using hypercoverings. It is proved…
We develop persistent homology in the setting of filtrations of (Cech) closure spaces. Examples of filtrations of closure spaces include metric spaces, weighted graphs, weighted directed graphs, and filtrations of topological spaces. We use…
The aim of this paper is to present a method for computation of persistent homology that performs well at large filtration values. To this end we introduce the concept of filtered covers. We show that the persistent homology of a bounded…
One of the central notions to emerge from the study of persistent homology is that of interleaving distance. It has found recent applications in symplectic and contact geometry, sheaf theory, computational geometry, and phylogenetics. Here…
In this paper we study the properties of the homology of different geometric filtered complexes (such as Vietoris-Rips, Cech and witness complexes) built on top of precompact spaces. Using recent developments in the theory of topological…
The paper studies the relation between critical simplices and persistence diagrams of the \v{C}ech filtration. We show that adding a critical $k$-simplex into the filtration corresponds either to a point in the $k$th persistence diagram or…
The \v{C}ech complex is one of the most widely used tools in applied algebraic topology. Unfortunately, due to the inclusive nature of the \v{C}ech filtration, the number of simplices grows exponentially in the number of input points. A…
Given a set P of n points and a constant k, we are interested in computing the persistent homology of the Cech filtration of P for the k-distance, and investigate the effectiveness of dimensionality reduction for this problem, answering an…
In this paper we consider measures of similarity between two sets of strings built up using the Hamming distance and tools of persistence homology as a basis. First we describe the construction of the \v Cech filtration adjoined to the set…
We define and study several new interleaving distances for persistent cohomology which take into account the algebraic structures of the cohomology of a space, for instance the cup product or the action of the Steenrod algebra. In…
The homotopy interleaving distance, a distance between persistent spaces, was introduced by Blumberg and Lesnick and shown to be universal, in the sense that it is the largest homotopy-invariant distance for which sublevel-set filtrations…
The alpha complex efficiently computes persistent homology of a point cloud $X$ in Euclidean space when the dimension $d$ is low. Given a subset $A$ of $X$, relative persistent homology can be computed as the persistent homology of the…
Given a compact geodesic space $X$ we apply the fundamental group and alternatively the first homology group functor to the corresponding Rips or \v{C}ech filtration of $X$ to obtain what we call a persistence. This paper contains the…
We develop novel methods for using persistent homology to infer the homology of an unknown Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ from a point cloud sampled from an arbitrary smooth probability density function. Standard distance-based filtered…
Proximity complexes and filtrations are central constructions in topological data analysis. Built using distance functions, or more generally metrics, they are often used to infer connectivity information from point clouds. Here we…
In the present paper we investigate the properties of the Hausdorff mapping $\mathcal{H}$, which takes each compact metric space to the space of its nonempty closed subspaces. It is shown that this mapping is nonexpanding (Lipschitz mapping…
A classic result states that on any locally contractible and paracompact topological space, singular cohomology and sheaf cohomology are isomorphic. A result by Ramanan claims that the paracompactness assumption may be removed, but…
Comparison between multidimensional persistent Betti numbers is often based on the multidimensional matching distance. While this metric is rather simple to define and compute by considering a suitable family of filtering functions…
We present a parallelizable algorithm for computing the persistent homology of a filtered chain complex. Our approach differs from the commonly used reduction algorithm by first computing persistence pairs within local chunks, then…
We compute the \v{C}ech cohomology ring of a countable product of infinite projective spaces, and that of an infinite flag manifold. The method of our first result in fact computes the cohomology ring of a countably infinite product of…
