2026LectureФёдор Вылегжанин
Where simplicial homology shows up in real life — topological data analysis. The union of balls around a point cloud, persistence modules and their decomposition into a sum of interval modules over a field (the structure theorem and the algorithm), the barcode; the Vietoris–Rips and Čech complexes; the stability theorem for barcodes, the Hausdorff, Gromov–Hausdorff and Wasserstein distances; open covers and their nerves, Leray covers and the nerve theorem, the category of covers, paracompactness, Lebesgue covering dimension, Čech homology and cohomology.
