Our main results are bounds on the size of the chromatic Delaunay mosaic, in which we assume that d and s are constants. For example, if A is finite with n=#A, and the coloring is random, then the chromatic Delaunay mosaic has O(n⌈d/2⌉) cells in expectation. In contrast, for Delone sets and Poisson point processes in Rd, the expected number of cells within a closed ball is only a constant times the number of points in this ball. Furthermore, in R2 all colorings of a dense set of n points have chromatic Delaunay mosaics of size O(n). This encourages the use of chromatic Delaunay mosaics in applications. acknowledgement: The fourth author thanks Boris Aronov for insightful discussions on the size of the overlay of Voronoi tessellations.

This paper extends this property to higher order and uses it to generalize two classic properties from order-1 to order-2: (1) among the complete level-2 hypertriangulations of a generic point set in R2, the order-2 Delaunay triangulation lexicographically maximizes the sorted angle vector; (2) among the maximal level-2 hypertriangulations of a generic point set in R2, the order-2 Delaunay triangulation is the only one that has the local angle property. We also use our method of establishing (2) to give a new short proof of the angle vector optimality for the (order-1) Delaunay triangulation.

Previous efforts have mainly focused on accurately counting or approximating the number of simplets rather than studying their frequencies. However, analyzing simplet frequencies is more practical for large-scale simplicial complexes. This paper introduces the Simplet Frequency Distribution (SFD) vector, which enables the analysis of simplet frequencies in simplicial complexes. Additionally, we provide a bound on the sample complexity required to approximate the SFD vector using any uniform sampling-based algorithm accurately. We extend the definition of simplet frequency distribution to encompass simplices, allowing for the analysis of simplet frequencies within simplices of simplicial complexes. This paper introduces the Simplet Degree Vector (SDV) and the Simplet Degree Centrality (SDC), facilitating this analysis for each simplex. Furthermore, we present a bound on the sample complexity required for accurately approximating the SDV and SDC for a set of simplices using any uniform sampling-based algorithm. We also introduce algorithms for approximating SFD, geometric SFD, SDV, and SDC. We also validate the theoretical bounds with experiments on random simplicial complexes and demonstrate the practical application through a case study. acknowledgement: "The authors would like to thank the anonymous reviewers for their valuable comments and suggestions, which improved this paper.\r\nWork by the first and fourth authors is partially supported by the European Research Council (ERC), grant no. 788183, by the Wittgenstein Prize, Austrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no.

This paper examines the banana tree data structure, specifically designed to efficiently maintain the multi-scale topological descriptor commonly known as persistent homology for dynamically changing time series data. We implement this data structure and conduct an experimental study to assess its properties and runtime for update operations. Our findings indicate that banana trees are highly effective with unbiased random data, outperforming state-of-the-art static algorithms in these scenarios. Additionally, our results show that real-world time series share structural properties with unbiased random walks, suggesting potential practical utility for our implementation. acknowledgement: "Lara Ost: Supported by the Vienna Graduate School on Computational Optimization\r\n(VGSCO), FWF project no.

One is the well-known Jensen–Shannon divergence, which is easy to compute and whose square root is a proper metric. The other is what we call the minmax divergence, which is harder to compute. Just like the Jensen–Shannon divergence, it arises naturally from the Kullback–Leibler divergence. The main contribution of this paper is a proof showing that the minmax divergence can be tightly approximated by the Jensen–Shannon divergence. The bounds suggest that the square root of the minmax divergence is a metric, and we prove that this is indeed true in the one-dimensional case. The general case remains open. Finally, we consider analogous questions in the context of another Bregman divergence and the corresponding Burbea–Rao (Jensen–Bregman) divergence. acknowledgement: "This research received partial funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under\r\nthe European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, grant no. 788183, the\r\nWittgenstein Prize, Austrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no.

Our primary tool is a computationally tractable description of the bounded derived category of sheaves on a poset with the Alexandrov topology. We prove that each bounded complex of sheaves on a finite poset admits a unique (up to isomorphism of complexes) minimal injective resolution, and we provide algorithms for computing minimal injective resolution of an injective complex, as well as several useful functors between derived categories of sheaves. For the constant sheaf on a simplicial complex, we give asymptotically tight bounds on the complexity of computing the minimal injective resolution using those algorithms. Our main result is a novel definition of the discrete microsupport of a bounded complex of sheaves on a finite poset. We detail several foundational properties of the discrete microsupport, as well as a microlocal generalization of the discrete homological Morse theorem and Morse inequalities. acknowledgement: This project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, grant no. 788183, from the Wittgenstein Prize, Austrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no.

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." acknowledgement: "The research presented in this thesis was funded with the Wittgenstein Prize,\r\nAustrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no.

While each of these projects tackles a topic in a different area of research, they all share a common thread in the type of topological structure they handle - a partition of space into volumes separated by interfaces that meet in non-manifold junctions.\r\n\r\nIn Chapter 2, we study clusters of soap bubbles from a simulation perspective. In particular, we develop a surface-only algorithm that couples large scale motion and shape deformation of soap bubble clusters with the small scale evolution of the thin film's thickness, which is responsible for visual phenomena like surface vortices, Newton's interference patterns, capillary waves, and deformation-dependent rupturing of films in a foam. We model film thickness as a reduced degree of freedom in the Navier-Stokes equations and from them derive three sets of equations governing normal and tangential motion of the soap film surface, as well as the evolution of the thin film thickness. We discretize these equations on a non-manifold triangle mesh, extending and adapting operators to handle complex topology. We also present an incompressible fluid solver for 2.5D films and an advection algorithm for convecting fields across non-manifold surface junctions. Our simulations enhance bubble solvers with additional effects caused by convection, rippling, draining, and evaporation of the thin film.\r\n\r\nIn Chapter 3, we introduce a multi-material non-manifold mesh-based surface tracking algorithm that converts mesh defects, such as overlaps, self-intersections, and inversions into topological changes. Our algorithm generalizes prior work on manifold surface tracking with topological changes: it preserves surface features like mesh-based methods, and it robustly handles topological changes like level set methods. Our method also offers improved efficiency and robustness over the state of the art. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach on a range of examples, including complex soap film simulations, such as those presented in Chapter 2, but with an order of magnitude more interacting bubbles than what we could achieve before, and Boolean unions of non-manifold meshes consisting of millions of triangles.\r\n\r\nLastly, in Chapter 4, we utilize developments in the theory of random geometric complexes facilitated by observations from Discrete Morse theory. We survey the methods and results obtained with this new approach, and discuss some of its shortcomings. We use simulations to illustrate the results and to form conjectures, getting numerical estimates for combinatorial, topological, and geometric properties of weighted and unweighted Delaunay mosaics, their dual Voronoi tessellations, and the Alpha and Wrap complexes contained in the mosaics." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: ScienComp acknowledgement: The project in Chapter 2 has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 638176.

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)). acknowledgement: Work by all authors but 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. acknowledgement: This project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, grant no. 788183, from the Wittgenstein Prize, Austrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no.

That is, the bounding sphere is part of the set \U0001D4AE. Consider the space of C^{1,1} diffeomorphisms of ℝ^d to itself, which keep the bounding sphere invariant. The map from this space of diffeomorphisms (endowed with a Banach norm) to the space of closed subsets of ℝ^d (endowed with the Hausdorff distance), mapping a diffeomorphism F to the closure of the medial axis of F(\U0001D4AE), is Lipschitz.

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. In particular, there is an arrangement of n contruent balls in ℝ³ that enclose a quadratic number of voids, which answers a long-standing open question in computational geometry. acknowledgement: "The first author is supported by the European Research Council (ERC), grant no. 788183, and by the DFG Collaborative Research Center TRR 109, Austrian Science Fund (FWF), grant no. {I 02979-N35.} The second author is supported by the European Research Council (ERC), grant \"GeoScape\" and by the Hungarian Science Foundation (NKFIH), grant K-131529.
