  text: We investigate weighted straight skeletons from a geometric, graph-theoretical,
    and combinatorial point of view. We start with a thorough definition and shed
    light on some ambiguity issues in the procedural definition. We investigate the
    geometry, combinatorics, and topology of faces and the roof model, and we discuss
    in which cases a weighted straight skeleton is connected. Finally, we show that
    the weighted straight skeleton of even a simple polygon may be non-planar and
    may contain cycles, and we discuss under which restrictions on the weights and/or
    the input polygon the weighted straight skeleton still behaves similar to its
    unweighted counterpart. In particular, we obtain a non-procedural description
    and a linear-time construction algorithm for the straight skeleton of strictly
    convex polygons with arbitrary weights.

  text: 'The straight skeleton of a polygon is the geometric graph obtained by tracing
    the vertices during a mitered offsetting process. It is known that the straight
    skeleton of a simple polygon is a tree, and one can naturally derive directions
    on the edges of the tree from the propagation of the shrinking process. In this
    paper, we ask the reverse question: Given a tree with directed edges, can it be
    the straight skeleton of a polygon? And if so, can we find a suitable simple polygon?
    We answer these questions for all directed trees where the order of edges around
    each node is fixed.'

  text: 'We study the problem of robust satisfiability of systems of nonlinear equations,
    namely, whether for a given continuous function f:K→ ℝn on a finite simplicial
    complex K and α &gt; 0, it holds that each function g: K → ℝn such that ||g -
    f || ∞ &lt; α, has a root in K. Via a reduction to the extension problem of maps
    into a sphere, we particularly show that this problem is decidable in polynomial
    time for every fixed n, assuming dimK ≤ 2n - 3. This is a substantial extension
    of previous computational applications of topological degree and related concepts
    in numerical and interval analysis. Via a reverse reduction, we prove that the
    problem is undecidable when dim K &gt; 2n - 2, where the threshold comes from
    the stable range in homotopy theory. For the lucidity of our exposition, we focus
    on the setting when f is simplexwise linear. Such functions can approximate general
    continuous functions, and thus we get approximation schemes and undecidability
    of the robust satisfiability in other possible settings.'

  text: 'We consider the hollow on the half-plane {(x, y) : y ≤ 0} ⊂ ℝ2 defined by
    a function u : (-1, 1) → ℝ, u(x) &lt; 0, and a vertical flow of point particles
    incident on the hollow. It is assumed that u satisfies the so-called single impact
    condition (SIC): each incident particle is elastically reflected by graph(u) and
    goes away without hitting the graph of u anymore. We solve the problem: find the
    function u minimizing the force of resistance created by the flow. We show that
    the graph of the minimizer is formed by two arcs of parabolas symmetric to each
    other with respect to the y-axis. Assuming that the resistance of u ≡ 0 equals
    1, we show that the minimal resistance equals π/2 - 2arctan(1/2) ≈ 0.6435. This
    result completes the previously obtained result [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 46 (2014),
    pp. 2730-2742] stating in particular that the minimal resistance of a hollow in
    higher dimensions equals 0.5. We additionally consider a similar problem of minimal
    resistance, where the hollow in the half-space {(x1,...,xd,y) : y ≤ 0} ⊂ ℝd+1
    is defined by a radial function U satisfying the SIC, U(x) = u(|x|), with x =
    (x1,...,xd), u(ξ) &lt; 0 for 0 ≤ ξ &lt; 1, and u(ξ) = 0 for ξ ≥ 1, and the flow
    is parallel to the y-axis. The minimal resistance is greater than 0.5 (and coincides
    with 0.6435 when d = 1) and converges to 0.5 as d → ∞.'

  text: Motivated by recent ideas of Harman (Unif. Distrib. Theory, 2010) we develop
    a new concept of variation of multivariate functions on a compact Hausdorff space
    with respect to a collection D of subsets. We prove a general version of the Koksma-Hlawka
    theorem that holds for this notion of variation and discrepancy with respect to
    D. As special cases, we obtain Koksma-Hlawka inequalities for classical notions,
    such as extreme or isotropic discrepancy. For extreme discrepancy, our result
    coincides with the usual Koksma-Hlawka theorem. We show that the space of functions
    of bounded D-variation contains important discontinuous functions and is closed
    under natural algebraic operations. Finally, we illustrate the results on concrete
    integration problems from integral geometry and stereology.

  text: This thesis is concerned with the computation and approximation of intrinsic
    volumes. Given a smooth body M and a certain digital approximation of it, we develop
    algorithms to approximate various intrinsic volumes of M using only measurements
    taken from its digital approximations. The crucial idea behind our novel algorithms
    is to link the recent theory of persistent homology to the theory of intrinsic
    volumes via the Crofton formula from integral geometry and, in particular, via
    Euler characteristic computations. Our main contributions are a multigrid convergent
    digital algorithm to compute the first intrinsic volume of a solid body in R^n
    as well as an appropriate integration pipeline to approximate integral-geometric
    integrals defined over the Grassmannian manifold.

  text: Watermarking techniques for vector graphics dislocate vertices in order to
    embed imperceptible, yet detectable, statistical features into the input data.
    The embedding process may result in a change of the topology of the input data,
    e.g., by introducing self-intersections, which is undesirable or even disastrous
    for many applications. In this paper we present a watermarking framework for two-dimensional
    vector graphics that employs conventional watermarking techniques but still provides
    the guarantee that the topology of the input data is preserved. The geometric
    part of this framework computes so-called maximum perturbation regions (MPR) of
    vertices. We propose two efficient algorithms to compute MPRs based on Voronoi
    diagrams and constrained triangulations. Furthermore, we present two algorithms
    to conditionally correct the watermarked data in order to increase the watermark
    embedding capacity and still guarantee topological correctness. While we focus
    on the watermarking of input formed by straight-line segments, one of our approaches
    can also be extended to circular arcs. We conclude the paper by demonstrating
    and analyzing the applicability of our framework in conjunction with two well-known
    watermarking techniques.

  text: The classical sphere packing problem asks for the best (infinite) arrangement
    of non-overlapping unit balls which cover as much space as possible. We define
    a generalized version of the problem, where we allow each ball a limited amount
    of overlap with other balls. We study two natural choices of overlap measures
    and obtain the optimal lattice packings in a parameterized family of lattices
    which contains the FCC, BCC, and integer lattice.

  text: Persistent homology is a popular and powerful tool for capturing topological
    features of data. Advances in algorithms for computing persistent homology have
    reduced the computation time drastically – as long as the algorithm does not exhaust
    the available memory. Following up on a recently presented parallel method for
    persistence computation on shared memory systems [1], we demonstrate that a simple
    adaption of the standard reduction algorithm leads to a variant for distributed
    systems. Our algorithmic design ensures that the data is distributed over the
    nodes without redundancy; this permits the computation of much larger instances
    than on a single machine. Moreover, we observe that the parallelism at least compensates
    for the overhead caused by communication between nodes, and often even speeds
    up the computation compared to sequential and even parallel shared memory algorithms.
    In our experiments, we were able to compute the persistent homology of filtrations
    with more than a billion (109) elements within seconds on a cluster with 32 nodes
    using less than 6GB of memory per node.

  text: We present a parallel 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 simplifying
    the unpaired columns, and finally applying standard reduction on the simplified
    matrix. The approach generalizes a technique by Günther et al., which uses discrete
    Morse Theory to compute persistence; we derive the same worst-case complexity
    bound in a more general context. The algorithm employs several practical optimization
    techniques, which are of independent interest. Our sequential implementation of
    the algorithm is competitive with state-of-the-art methods, and we further improve
    the performance through parallel computation.

  text: (Figure Presented) Data acquisition, numerical inaccuracies, and sampling
    often introduce noise in measurements and simulations. Removing this noise is
    often necessary for efficient analysis and visualization of this data, yet many
    denoising techniques change the minima and maxima of a scalar field. For example,
    the extrema can appear or disappear, spatially move, and change their value. This
    can lead to wrong interpretations of the data, e.g., when the maximum temperature
    over an area is falsely reported being a few degrees cooler because the denoising
    method is unaware of these features. Recently, a topological denoising technique
    based on a global energy optimization was proposed, which allows the topology-controlled
    denoising of 2D scalar fields. While this method preserves the minima and maxima,
    it is constrained by the size of the data. We extend this work to large 2D data
    and medium-sized 3D data by introducing a novel domain decomposition approach.
    It allows processing small patches of the domain independently while still avoiding
    the introduction of new critical points. Furthermore, we propose an iterative
    refinement of the solution, which decreases the optimization energy compared to
    the previous approach and therefore gives smoother results that are closer to
    the input. We illustrate our technique on synthetic and real-world 2D and 3D data
    sets that highlight potential applications.

  text: The Morse-Smale complex can be either explicitly or implicitly represented.
    Depending on the type of representation, the simplification of the Morse-Smale
    complex works differently. In the explicit representation, the Morse-Smale complex
    is directly simplified by explicitly reconnecting the critical points during the
    simplification. In the implicit representation, on the other hand, the Morse-Smale
    complex is given by a combinatorial gradient field. In this setting, the simplification
    changes the combinatorial flow, which yields an indirect simplification of the
    Morse-Smale complex. The topological complexity of the Morse-Smale complex is
    reduced in both representations. However, the simplifications generally yield
    different results. In this chapter, we emphasize properties of the two representations
    that cause these differences. We also provide a complexity analysis of the two
    schemes with respect to running time and memory consumption.

  text: We propose a method for visualizing two-dimensional symmetric positive definite
    tensor fields using the Heat Kernel Signature (HKS). The HKS is derived from the
    heat kernel and was originally introduced as an isometry invariant shape signature.
    Each positive definite tensor field defines a Riemannian manifold by considering
    the tensor field as a Riemannian metric. On this Riemmanian manifold we can apply
    the definition of the HKS. The resulting scalar quantity is used for the visualization
    of tensor fields. The HKS is closely related to the Gaussian curvature of the
    Riemannian manifold and the time parameter of the heat kernel allows a multiscale
    analysis in a natural way. In this way, the HKS represents field related scale
    space properties, enabling a level of detail analysis of tensor fields. This makes
    the HKS an interesting new scalar quantity for tensor fields, which differs significantly
    from usual tensor invariants like the trace or the determinant. A method for visualization
    and a numerical realization of the HKS for tensor fields is proposed in this chapter.
    To validate the approach we apply it to some illustrating simple examples as isolated
    critical points and to a medical diffusion tensor data set.

  text: "In this paper, we introduce planar matchings on directed pseudo-line arrangements,
    which yield a planar set of pseudo-line segments such that only matching-partners
    are adjacent. By translating the planar matching problem into a corresponding
    stable roommates problem we show that such matchings always exist.\r\nUsing our
    new framework, we establish, for the first time, a complete, rigorous definition
    of weighted straight skeletons, which are based on a so-called wavefront propagation
    process. We present a generalized and unified approach to treat structural changes
    in the wavefront that focuses on the restoration of weak planarity by finding
    planar matchings."

  text: Saddle periodic orbits are an essential and stable part of the topological
    skeleton of a 3D vector field. Nevertheless, there is currently no efficient algorithm
    to robustly extract these features. In this chapter, we present a novel technique
    to extract saddle periodic orbits. Exploiting the analytic properties of such
    an orbit, we propose a scalar measure based on the finite-time Lyapunov exponent
    (FTLE) that indicates its presence. Using persistent homology, we can then extract
    the robust cycles of this field. These cycles thereby represent the saddle periodic
    orbits of the given vector field. We discuss the different existing FTLE approximation
    schemes regarding their applicability to this specific problem and propose an
    adapted version of FTLE called Normalized Velocity Separation. Finally, we evaluate
    our method using simple analytic vector field data.
