text: In this paper we introduce a pruning of the medial axis called the (λ,α)-medial
axis (axλα). We prove that the (λ,α)-medial axis of a set K is stable in a Gromov-Hausdorff
sense under weak assumptions. More formally we prove that if K and K′ are close
in the Hausdorff (dH) sense then the (λ,α)-medial axes of K and K′ are close as
metric spaces, that is the Gromov-Hausdorff distance (dGH) between the two is
1/4-Hölder in the sense that dGH (axλα(K),axλα(K′)) ≲ dH(K,K′)1/4. The Hausdorff
distance between the two medial axes is also bounded, by dH (axλα(K),λα(K′)) ≲
dH(K,K′)1/2. These quantified stability results provide guarantees for practical
computations of medial axes from approximations. Moreover, they provide key ingredients
for studying the computability of the medial axis in the context of computable
analysis.

text: We present criteria for establishing a triangulation of a manifold. Given
a manifold M, a simplicial complex A, and a map H from the underlying space of
A to M, our criteria are presented in local coordinate charts for M, and ensure
that H is a homeomorphism. These criteria do not require a differentiable structure,
or even an explicit metric on M. No Delaunay property of A is assumed. The result
provides a triangulation guarantee for algorithms that construct a simplicial
complex by working in local coordinate patches. Because the criteria are easily
verified in such a setting, they are expected to be of general use.

text: 'Kleinjohann (Archiv der Mathematik 35(1):574–582, 1980; Mathematische Zeitschrift
176(3), 327–344, 1981) and Bangert (Archiv der Mathematik 38(1):54–57, 1982) extended
the reach rch(S) from subsets S of Euclidean space to the reach rchM(S) of subsets
S of Riemannian manifolds M, where M is smooth (we’ll assume at least C3). Bangert
showed that sets of positive reach in Euclidean space and Riemannian manifolds
are very similar. In this paper we introduce a slight variant of Kleinjohann’s
and Bangert’s extension and quantify the similarity between sets of positive reach
in Euclidean space and Riemannian manifolds in a new way: Given p∈M and q∈S, we
bound the local feature size (a local version of the reach) of its lifting to
the tangent space via the inverse exponential map (exp−1p(S)) at q, assuming that
rchM(S) and the geodesic distance dM(p,q) are bounded. These bounds are motivated
by the importance of the reach and local feature size to manifold learning, topological
inference, and triangulating manifolds and the fact that intrinsic approaches
circumvent the curse of dimensionality.'

text: "Isomanifolds are the generalization of isosurfaces to arbitrary dimension
and codimension, i.e., submanifolds of Rd defined as the zero set of some multivariate
multivalued smooth function f:Rd→Rd−n, where n is the intrinsic dimension of the
manifold. A natural way to approximate a smooth isomanifold M=f−1(0) is to consider
its piecewise linear (PL) approximation M^\r\n based on a triangulation T of the
ambient space Rd. In this paper, we describe a simple algorithm to trace isomanifolds
from a given starting point. The algorithm works for arbitrary dimensions n and
d, and any precision D. Our main result is that, when f (or M) has bounded complexity,
the complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in d and δ=1/D (and unavoidably
exponential in n). Since it is known that for δ=Ω(d2.5), M^ is O(D2)-close and
isotopic to M\r\n, our algorithm produces a faithful PL-approximation of isomanifolds
of bounded complexity in time polynomial in d. Combining this algorithm with dimensionality
reduction techniques, the dependency on d in the size of M^ can be completely
removed with high probability. We also show that the algorithm can handle isomanifolds
with boundary and, more generally, isostratifolds. The algorithm for isomanifolds
with boundary has been implemented and experimental results are reported, showing
that it is practical and can handle cases that are far ahead of the state-of-the-art. "

text: The medial axis of a set consists of the points in the ambient space without
a unique closest point on the original set. Since its introduction, the medial
axis has been used extensively in many applications as a method of computing a
topologically equivalent skeleton. 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. 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, demonstrating an isotopy of a shape where the medial axis goes from
collapsible to non-collapsible.

text: "Isomanifolds are the generalization of isosurfaces to arbitrary dimension
and codimension, i.e. manifolds defined as the zero set of some multivariate vector-valued
smooth function f : Rd → Rd−n. A natural (and efficient) way to approximate an
isomanifold is to consider its Piecewise-Linear (PL) approximation based on a
triangulation T of the ambient space Rd. In this paper, we give conditions under
which the PL-approximation of an isomanifold is topologically equivalent to the
isomanifold. The conditions are easy to satisfy in the sense that they can always
be met by taking a sufficiently\r\nfine triangulation T . This contrasts with
previous results on the triangulation of manifolds where, in arbitrary dimensions,
delicate perturbations are needed to guarantee topological correctness, which
leads to strong limitations in practice. We further give a bound on the Fréchet
distance between the original isomanifold and its PL-approximation. Finally we
show analogous results for the PL-approximation of an isomanifold with boundary."

text: Modeling a crystal as a periodic point set, we present a fingerprint consisting
of density functionsthat facilitates the efficient search for new materials and
material properties. We prove invarianceunder isometries, continuity, and completeness
in the generic case, which are necessary featuresfor the reliable comparison of
crystals. The proof of continuity integrates methods from discretegeometry and
lattice theory, while the proof of generic completeness combines techniques fromgeometry
with analysis. The fingerprint has a fast algorithm based on Brillouin zones and
relatedinclusion-exclusion formulae. We have implemented the algorithm and describe
its application tocrystal structure prediction.
acknowledgement: The authors thank Janos Pach for insightful discussions on the topic
of thispaper, Morteza Saghafian for finding the one-dimensional counterexample mentioned
in Section 5,and Larry Andrews for generously sharing his crystallographic perspective.

text: "Isomanifolds are the generalization of isosurfaces to arbitrary dimension
and codimension, i.e. submanifolds of ℝ^d defined as the zero set of some multivariate
multivalued smooth function f: ℝ^d → ℝ^{d-n}, where n is the intrinsic dimension
of the manifold. A natural way to approximate a smooth isomanifold M is to consider
its Piecewise-Linear (PL) approximation M̂ based on a triangulation \U0001D4AF
of the ambient space ℝ^d. In this paper, we describe a simple algorithm to trace
isomanifolds from a given starting point. The algorithm works for arbitrary dimensions
n and d, and any precision D. Our main result is that, when f (or M) has bounded
complexity, the complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in d and δ = 1/D (and
unavoidably exponential in n). Since it is known that for δ = Ω (d^{2.5}), M̂
is O(D²)-close and isotopic to M, our algorithm produces a faithful PL-approximation
of isomanifolds of bounded complexity in time polynomial in d. Combining this
algorithm with dimensionality reduction techniques, the dependency on d in the
size of M̂ can be completely removed with high probability. We also show that
the algorithm can handle isomanifolds with boundary and, more generally, isostratifolds.
The algorithm for isomanifolds with boundary has been implemented and experimental
results are reported, showing that it is practical and can handle cases that are
far ahead of the state-of-the-art. "

text: 'We consider the following setting: suppose that we are given a manifold M
in Rd with positive reach. Moreover assume that we have an embedded simplical
complex A without boundary, whose vertex set lies on the manifold, is sufficiently
dense and such that all simplices in A have sufficient quality. We prove that
if, locally, interiors of the projection of the simplices onto the tangent space
do not intersect, then A is a triangulation of the manifold, that is, they are
homeomorphic.'

text: Coxeter triangulations are triangulations of Euclidean space based on a single
simplex. By this we mean that given an individual simplex we can recover the entire
triangulation of Euclidean space by inductively reflecting in the faces of the
simplex. In this paper we establish that the quality of the simplices in all Coxeter
triangulations is O(1/d−−√) of the quality of regular simplex. We further investigate
the Delaunay property for these triangulations. Moreover, we consider an extension
of the Delaunay property, namely protection, which is a measure of non-degeneracy
of a Delaunay triangulation. In particular, one family of Coxeter triangulations
achieves the protection O(1/d2). We conjecture that both bounds are optimal for
triangulations in Euclidean space.

text: "Isomanifolds are the generalization of isosurfaces to arbitrary dimension
and codimension, i.e. manifolds defined as the zero set of some multivariate vector-valued
smooth function f: ℝ^d → ℝ^(d-n). A natural (and efficient) way to approximate
an isomanifold is to consider its Piecewise-Linear (PL) approximation based on
a triangulation \U0001D4AF of the ambient space ℝ^d. In this paper, we give conditions
under which the PL-approximation of an isomanifold is topologically equivalent
to the isomanifold. The conditions are easy to satisfy in the sense that they
can always be met by taking a sufficiently fine triangulation \U0001D4AF. This
contrasts with previous results on the triangulation of manifolds where, in arbitrary
dimensions, delicate perturbations are needed to guarantee topological correctness,
which leads to strong limitations in practice. We further give a bound on the
Fréchet distance between the original isomanifold and its PL-approximation. Finally
we show analogous results for the PL-approximation of an isomanifold with boundary. "

text: Fejes Tóth [3] studied approximations of smooth surfaces in three-space by
piecewise flat triangular meshes with a given number of vertices on the surface
that are optimal with respect to Hausdorff distance. He proves that this Hausdorff
distance decreases inversely proportional with the number of vertices of the approximating
mesh if the surface is convex. He also claims that this Hausdorff distance is
inversely proportional to the square of the number of vertices for a specific
non-convex surface, namely a one-sheeted hyperboloid of revolution bounded by
two congruent circles. We refute this claim, and show that the asymptotic behavior
of the Hausdorff distance is linear, that is the same as for convex surfaces.

text: We give non-degeneracy criteria for Riemannian simplices based on simplices
in spaces of constant sectional curvature. It extends previous work on Riemannian
simplices, where we developed Riemannian simplices with respect to Euclidean reference
simplices. The criteria we give in this article are in terms of quality measures
for spaces of constant curvature that we develop here. We see that simplices in
spaces that have nearly constant curvature, are already non-degenerate under very
weak quality demands. This is of importance because it allows for sampling of
Riemannian manifolds based on anisotropy of the manifold and not (absolute) curvature.

text: Fejes Tóth [5] and Schneider [9] studied approximations of smooth convex hypersurfaces
in Euclidean space by piecewise flat triangular meshes with a given number
of vertices on the hypersurface that are optimal with respect to Hausdorff distance. They proved that this
Hausdorff distance decreases inversely proportional with m 2/(d−1), where m is the number of vertices and
d is the dimension of Euclidean space. Moreover the pro-portionality constant
can be expressed in terms of the Gaussian curvature, an intrinsic quantity. In
this short note, we prove the extrinsic nature of this constant for manifolds
of sufficiently high codimension. We do so by constructing an family of isometric
embeddings of the flat torus in Euclidean space.

text: The construction of anisotropic triangulations is desirable for various applications,
such as the numerical solving of partial differential equations and the representation
of surfaces in graphics. To solve this notoriously difficult problem in a practical
way, we introduce the discrete Riemannian Voronoi diagram, a discrete structure
that approximates the Riemannian Voronoi diagram. This structure has been implemented
and was shown to lead to good triangulations in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and on surfaces
embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ as detailed in our experimental companion paper. In
this paper, we study theoretical aspects of our structure. Given a finite set
of points $\mathcal{P}$ in a domain $\Omega$ equipped with a Riemannian metric,
we compare the discrete Riemannian Voronoi diagram of $\mathcal{P}$ to its Riemannian
Voronoi diagram. Both diagrams have dual structures called the discrete Riemannian
Delaunay and the Riemannian Delaunay complex. We provide conditions that guarantee
that these dual structures are identical. It then follows from previous results
that the discrete Riemannian Delaunay complex can be embedded in $\Omega$ under
sufficient conditions, leading to an anisotropic triangulation with curved simplices.
Furthermore, we show that, under similar conditions, the simplices of this triangulation
can be straightened.

text: 'In this paper we discuss three results. The first two concern general sets
of positive reach: we first characterize the reach of a closed set by means of
a bound on the metric distortion between the distance measured in the ambient
Euclidean space and the shortest path distance measured in the set. Secondly,
we prove that the intersection of a ball with radius less than the reach with
the set is geodesically convex, meaning that the shortest path between any two
points in the intersection lies itself in the intersection. For our third result
we focus on manifolds with positive reach and give a bound on the angle between
tangent spaces at two different points in terms of the reach and the distance
between the two points.'

text: We introduce a multiscale topological description of the Megaparsec web-like
cosmic matter distribution. Betti numbers and topological persistence offer a
powerful means of describing the rich connectivity structure of the cosmic web
and of its multiscale arrangement of matter and galaxies. Emanating from algebraic
topology and Morse theory, Betti numbers and persistence diagrams represent an
extension and deepening of the cosmologically familiar topological genus measure
and the related geometric Minkowski functionals. In addition to a description
of the mathematical background, this study presents the computational procedure
for computing Betti numbers and persistence diagrams for density field filtrations.
The field may be computed starting from a discrete spatial distribution of galaxies
or simulation particles. The main emphasis of this study concerns an extensive
and systematic exploration of the imprint of different web-like morphologies and
different levels of multiscale clustering in the corresponding computed Betti
numbers and persistence diagrams. To this end, we use Voronoi clustering models
as templates for a rich variety of web-like configurations and the fractal-like
Soneira-Peebles models exemplify a range of multiscale configurations. We have
identified the clear imprint of cluster nodes, filaments, walls, and voids in
persistence diagrams, along with that of the nested hierarchy of structures in
multiscale point distributions. We conclude by outlining the potential of persistent
topology for understanding the connectivity structure of the cosmic web, in large
simulations of cosmic structure formation and in the challenging context of the
observed galaxy distribution in large galaxy surveys.
