Computing Generalized Rank Invariant for 2-Parameter Persistence Modules via Zigzag Persistence and Its Applications

Authors: Tamal K. Dey, Woojin Kim, and Facundo Mémoli

Abstract
The notion of generalized rank invariant in the context of multiparameter persistence has become an important ingredient for defining interesting homological structures such as generalized persistence diagrams. Naturally, computing these rank invariants efficiently is a prelude to computing any of these derived structures efficiently. We show that the generalized rank over a finite interval I of a 𝐙²-indexed persistence module M is equal to the generalized rank of the zigzag module that is induced on a certain path in I tracing mostly its boundary. Hence, we can compute the generalized rank over I by computing the barcode of the zigzag module obtained by restricting the bifiltration inducing M to that path. If the bifiltration and I have at most t simplices and points respectively, this computation takes O(t^ω) time where ω ∈ [2,2.373) is the exponent of matrix multiplication. Among others, we apply this result to obtain an improved algorithm for the following problem. Given a bifiltration inducing a module M, determine whether M is interval decomposable and, if so, compute all intervals supporting its summands.

Elder-Rule-Staircodes for Augmented Metric Spaces

Authors: Chen Cai, Woojin Kim, Facundo Mémoli, and Yusu Wang

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


Abstract
An augmented metric space (X, d_X, f_X) is a metric space (X, d_X) equipped with a function f_X: X → ℝ. It arises commonly in practice, e.g, a point cloud X in ℝ^d where each point x∈ X has a density function value f_X(x) associated to it. Such an augmented metric space naturally gives rise to a 2-parameter filtration. However, the resulting 2-parameter persistence module could still be of wild representation type, and may not have simple indecomposables. In this paper, motivated by the elder-rule for the zeroth homology of a 1-parameter filtration, we propose a barcode-like summary, called the elder-rule-staircode, as a way to encode the zeroth homology of the 2-parameter filtration induced by a finite augmented metric space. Specifically, given a finite (X, d_X, f_X), its elder-rule-staircode consists of n = |X| number of staircase-like blocks in the plane. We show that the fibered barcode, the fibered merge tree, and the graded Betti numbers associated to the zeroth homology of the 2-parameter filtration induced by (X, d_X, f_X) can all be efficiently computed once the elder-rule-staircode is given. Furthermore, for certain special cases, this staircode corresponds exactly to the set of indecomposables of the zeroth homology of the 2-parameter filtration. Finally, we develop and implement an efficient algorithm to compute the elder-rule-staircode in O(n²log n) time, which can be improved to O(n²α(n)) if X is from a fixed dimensional Euclidean space ℝ^d, where α(n) is the inverse Ackermann function.
