  • Persistence and Stability of Geometric Complexes
  • Ripser: Efficient Computation of Vietoris-Rips Persistence Barcodes: Ripser is a lean C++ code for the computation of Vietoris–Rips persistence barcodes. It can do just this one thing, but does it extremely well. To see a live demo of Ripser's capabilities, go to live.ripser.org. The computation happens inside the browser (using Emscripten to compile Ripser to WebAssembly, supported on recent browsers).
  • Approximation Algorithms and Parametrized Complexity in Computational Topology
  • Coarse Cohomological Models for Dynamical Systems: The aim of this project is to develop methods for constructing coarse models of the global behavior of a system with complicated dynamics. These models will abstract from individual trajectories and rather provide dynamical information on a discretization of the underlying invariant set in form of a directed graph or a finite state Markov chain. In contrast to existing approaches, our models will incorporate information about cycling motion, generalizing the classic notion of periodic or quasiperiodic dynamics.
