  text: Motivated by applications in medical sciences, we study finite chromatic sets
    in Euclidean space from a topological perspective. Based on the persistent homology
    for images, kernels and cokernels, we design provably stable homological quantifiers
    that describe the geometric micro- and macro-structure of how the color classes
    mingle. These can be efficiently computed using chromatic variants of Delaunay
    and alpha complexes, and code that does these computations is provided.

  text: 'The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the p-th Betti
    number of the Čech complex of any set of N points in ℝ^d and any radius satisfies
    β_p = O(N^m), with m = min{p+1, ⌈d/2⌉}. We construct sets in even and odd dimensions,
    which prove that this upper bound is asymptotically tight. For example, we describe
    a set of N = 2(n+1) points in ℝ³ and two radii such that the first Betti number
    of the Čech complex at one radius is (n+1)² - 1, and the second Betti number of
    the Čech complex at the other radius is n². '

  text: The medial axis of a smoothly embedded surface in R^3 consists of all points
    for which the Euclidean distance function on the surface has at least two global
    minima. We generalize this notion to the mid-sphere axis, which consists of all
    points for which the Euclidean distance function has two interchanging saddles
    that swap their partners in the pairing by persistent homology. It offers a discrete-algebraic
    multi-scale approach to computing ridge-like structures on the surface. As a proof
    of concept, an algorithm that computes stair-case approximations of the mid-sphere
    axis is provided.

  text: 'Persistence modules (defined as a sequence of vector spaces and linear maps
    between them) are a key tool in topological data analysis. They are easy to interpret
    and fast to compute. However, when considering persistence maps (i.e. maps between
    persistence modules), these properties are lost. We propose a new invariant for
    persistence maps consisting of a partial matching such that: it is easy to interpret,
    it is more discriminative than the image of the persistence map, and can be calculated
    with cubical complexity.'

    distance, into Hilbert spaces. These embeddings are particularly valuable for
    applications to topological data analysis. We prove that its subspace consisting
    of metric spaces with at most n points has asymptotic dimension n(n−1)∕2. Thus,
    there exists a coarse embedding of that space into a Hilbert space. On the contrary,
    if the number of points is not bounded, then the subspace cannot be coarsely embedded
    into any uniformly convex Banach space and so, in particular, into any Hilbert
    space. Furthermore, we prove that, even if we restrict to finite metric spaces
    whose diameter is bounded by some constant, the subspace still cannot be bi-Lipschitz
    embedded into any finite-dimensional Hilbert space. We obtain both nonembeddability
    results by finding obstructions to coarse and bi-Lipschitz embeddings in families
    of isometry classes of finite subsets of the real line endowed with the Euclidean–Hausdorff
    distance.

  text: The approximation of a circle with the edges of a fine square grid distorts
    the perimeter by a factor about 4/Pi. We prove that this factor is the same on
    average (in the ergodic sense) for approximations of any rectifiable curve by
    the edges of any non-exotic Delaunay mosaic (known as Voronoi path), and extend
    the results to all dimensions, generalizing Voronoi paths to Voronoi scapes.

  text: The medial axis of a set consists of the points in the ambient space without
    a unique closest point in the original set. Since its introduction, the medial
    axis has been used extensively in many applications as a method of computing a
    skeleton topologically equivalent to the original set. Unfortunately, one limiting
    factor in the use of the medial axis of a smooth manifold is that it is not necessarily
    topologically stable under small perturbations of the manifold. To counter these
    instabilities, various prunings of the medial axis have been proposed in the computational
    geometry community. Here, we examine one type of pruning, called burning. Because
    of the good experimental results it was hoped that the burning method of simplifying
    the medial axis would be stable. In this work, we show a simple example that dashes
    such hopes. Based on Bing’s house with two rooms, we demonstrate an isotopy of
    a shape where the medial axis goes from collapsible to non-collapsible. More precisely,
    we consider the standard deformation retract from the closed ball to Bing’s house
    with two rooms, but stop just short of the point where Bing’s house becomes two
    dimensional. This way we obtain an isotopy from the 3-ball to a thickened version
    of Bing’s house. Under this isotopy, the medial axis goes from collapsible to
    non-collapsible. We stress that this isotopy can be made generic, in the sense
    of singularity theory, as developed by Arnol’d and Thom.

  text: "Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is a discipline utilizing the mathematical
    field of topology to study data, most prominently collections of point sets. This
    thesis summarizes three projects related to computations in TDA.\r\n\r\nThe first
    one establishes a variant of TDA for chromatic point sets, where each point is
    given a color. For example, we are given positions of cells within a tumor microenvironment,
    and color the cancerous cells red, and the immune cells blue.\r\n\r\nThe aim is
    then to give a quantitative description of how the two or more sets of points
    spatially interact. Building on image, kernel and cokernel variants of persistent
    homology, we suggest six-packs of persistent diagrams as such a descriptor.\r\n\r\nWe
    describe a construction of a chromatic alpha complex, which enables  efficient
    computation of several variants of the six-packs. We give topological descriptions
    of natural subcomplexes of the chromatic alpha complex, and show that the radii
    of the simplices form a discrete Morse function. Finally, we provide an implementation
    of the presented chromatic TDA pipeline.\r\n\r\nThe second part aims to translate
    a powerful tool of sheaf theory to elementary terms using labeled matrices. The
    goal is to enable their use in computational settings. We show that derived categories
    of sheaves over finite posets have, up to isomorphism, unique objects---minimal
    injective resolutions---and give a concrete algorithm to compute them. We further
    describe simple algorithms to compute derived pushforwards and pullbacks for monotonic
    maps, and their proper variants for inclusions, and demonstrate their tractability
    by providing an implementation. Finally, we suggest a discrete definition of microsupport
    and show desirable properties inspired by discrete Morse theory.\r\n\r\nIn the
    last part, we present a collection of observations about collapses. We give a
    characterization of collapsibility in terms of unitriangular submatrices of the
    boundary matrix, a cotree-tree decomposition, and the optimal solution to a variant
    of the Procrustes problem. We establish relation between dual collapses and relative
    Morse theory and pose several open questions. Finally, focusing on complexes embedded
    in the three-dimensional Euclidean space, we describe a relation between the collapsibility
    and the triviality of a polygonal knot."

  text: We solve a problem of Dujmović and Wood (2007) by showing that a complete
    convex geometric graph on n vertices cannot be decomposed into fewer than n -
    1 star-forests, each consisting of noncrossing edges. This bound is clearly tight.
    We also discuss similar questions for abstract graphs.

abstract:
- lang: eng
  text: "In 1873, James C. Maxwell conjectured that the electric field generated by
    $n$ point charges in generic position has at most $(n-1)^2$ isolated zeroes. The
    first (non-optimal) upper bound was only obtained in 2007 by Gabrielov, Novikov
    and Shapiro, who also posed two additional interesting conjectures.\r\n In this
    article, we give the best upper bound known to date on the number of zeroes of
    the electric field, and construct a counterexample to a conjecture of Gabrielov,
    Novikov and Shapiro that the number of equilibria cannot exceed those of the distance
    function defined by the unit point charges.\r\n Finally, we note that it is quite
    possible that Maxwell's quadratic upper bound is not tight, so it is prudent to
    find smaller bounds. Hence, we also explore examples and construct configurations
    of charges achieving the highest ratios of the number of electric field zeroes
    by point charges found to this day."

  text: Motivated by applications in chemistry, we give a homlogical definition of
    tunnels, or more generally cobordisms, connecting disjoint parts of a cell complex.
    For a filtered complex, this defines a persistence module. We give a method for
    identifying birth and death times using kernel persistence and a matrix reduction
    algorithm for pairing birth and death times.

  text: For a locally finite set in R2, the order-k Brillouin tessellations form an
    infinite sequence of convex face-to-face tilings of the plane. If the set is coarsely
    dense and generic, then the corresponding infinite sequences of minimum and maximum
    angles are both monotonic in k. As an example, a stationary Poisson point process
    in R2  is locally finite, coarsely dense, and generic with probability one. For
    such a set, the distributions of angles in the Voronoi tessellations, Delaunay
    mosaics, and Brillouin tessellations are independent of the order and can be derived
    from the formula for angles in order-1 Delaunay mosaics given by Miles (Math.
    Biosci. 6, 85–127 (1970)).

  text: "Abstract\r\nMethods used in topological data analysis naturally capture higher-order
    interactions in point cloud data embedded in a metric space. This methodology
    was recently extended to data living in an information space, by which we mean
    a space measured with an information theoretical distance. One such setting is
    a finite collection of discrete probability distributions embedded in the probability
    simplex measured with the relative entropy (Kullback–Leibler divergence). More
    generally, one can work with a Bregman divergence parameterized by a different
    notion of entropy. While theoretical algorithms exist for this setup, there is
    a paucity of implementations for exploring and comparing geometric-topological
    properties of various information spaces. The interest of this work is therefore
    twofold. First, we propose the first robust algorithms and software for geometric
    and topological data analysis in information space. Perhaps surprisingly, despite
    working with Bregman divergences, our design reuses robust libraries for the Euclidean
    case. Second, using the new software, we take the first steps towards understanding
    the geometric-topological structure of these spaces. In particular, we compare
    them with the more familiar spaces equipped with the Euclidean and Fisher metrics."

  text: "In our companion paper \"Tight bounds for the learning of homotopy à la Niyogi,
    Smale, and Weinberger for subsets of Euclidean spaces and of Riemannian manifolds\"
    we gave optimal bounds (in terms of the two one-sided Hausdorff distances) on
    a sample P of an input shape \U0001D4AE (either manifold or general set with positive
    reach) such that one can infer the homotopy of \U0001D4AE from the union of balls
    with some radius centred at P, both in Euclidean space and in a Riemannian manifold
    of bounded curvature. The construction showing the optimality of the bounds is
    not straightforward. The purpose of this video is to visualize and thus elucidate
    said construction in the Euclidean setting."

  text: Given a finite set, A ⊆ ℝ², and a subset, B ⊆ A, the MST-ratio is the combined
    length of the minimum spanning trees of B and A⧵B divided by the length of the
    minimum spanning tree of A. The question of the supremum, over all sets A, of
    the maximum, over all subsets B, is related to the Steiner ratio, and we prove
    this sup-max is between 2.154 and 2.427. Restricting ourselves to 2-dimensional
    lattices, we prove that the sup-max is 2, while the inf-max is 1.25. By some margin
    the most difficult of these results is the upper bound for the inf-max, which
    we prove by showing that the hexagonal lattice cannot have MST-ratio larger than
    1.25.

  text: 'A face in a curve arrangement is called popular if it is bounded by the same
    curve multiple times. Motivated by the automatic generation of curved nonogram
    puzzles, we investigate possibilities to eliminate the popular faces in an arrangement
    by inserting a single additional curve. This turns out to be NP-hard; however,
    it becomes tractable when the number of popular faces is small: We present a randomized
    FPT-time algorithm where the parameter is the number of popular faces.'

  text: Word embeddings represent language vocabularies as clouds of d-dimensional
    points. We investigate how information is conveyed by the general shape of these
    clouds, instead of representing the semantic meaning of each token. Specifically,
    we use the notion of persistent homology from topological data analysis (TDA)
    to measure the distances between language pairs from the shape of their unlabeled
    embeddings. These distances quantify the degree of non-isometry of the embeddings.
    To distinguish whether these differences are random training errors or capture
    real information about the languages, we use the computed distance matrices to
    construct language phylogenetic trees over 81 Indo-European languages. Careful
    evaluation shows that our reconstructed trees exhibit strong and statistically-significant
    similarities to the reference.

  text: Exploring the shape of point configurations has been a key driver in the evolution
    of TDA (short for topological data analysis) since its infancy. This survey illustrates
    the recent efforts to broaden these ideas to model spatial interactions among
    multiple configurations, each distinguished by a color. It describes advances
    in this area and prepares the ground for further exploration by mentioning unresolved
    questions and promising research avenues while focusing on the overlap with discrete
    geometry.

  text: Extending the notion of sunflowers, we call a family of at least two sets
    an odd-sunflower if every element of the underlying set is contained in an odd
    number of sets or in none of them. It follows from the Erdős–Szemerédi conjecture,
    recently proved by Naslund and Sawin, that there is a constant <2 such that every
    family of subsets of an n-element set that contains no odd-sunflower consists
    of at most n sets. We construct such families of size at least 1.5021n. We also
    characterize minimal odd-sunflowers of triples.
