ETH-Tight Algorithms for Finding Surfaces in Simplicial Complexes of Bounded Treewidth

Abstract
Given a simplicial complex with n simplices, we consider the Connected Subsurface Recognition (c-SR) problem of finding a subcomplex that is homeomorphic to a given connected surface with a fixed boundary. We also study the related Sum-of-Genus Subsurface Recognition (SoG) problem, where we instead search for a surface whose boundary, number of connected components, and total genus are given. For both of these problems, we give parameterized algorithms with respect to the treewidth k of the Hasse diagram that run in 2^{O(k log k)}n^{O(1)} time. For the SoG problem, we also prove that our algorithm is optimal assuming the exponential-time hypothesis. In fact, we prove the stronger result that our algorithm is ETH-tight even without restriction on the total genus.

Relative Persistent Homology

Authors: Nello Blaser and Morten Brun

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 164, 36th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2020)


Abstract
The alpha complex efficiently computes persistent homology of a point cloud X in Euclidean space when the dimension d is low. Given a subset A of X, relative persistent homology can be computed as the persistent homology of the relative Čech complex Č(X, A). But this is not computationally feasible for larger point clouds X. The aim of this note is to present a method for efficient computation of relative persistent homology in low dimensional Euclidean space. We introduce the relative Delaunay-Čech complex DelČ(X, A) whose homology is the relative persistent homology. It is constructed from the Delaunay complex of an embedding of X in (d+1)-dimensional Euclidean space.
