Efficient Two-Parameter Persistence Computation via Cohomology

Authors: Ulrich Bauer, Fabian Lenzen, and Michael Lesnick

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 258, 39th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2023)

Abstract
Clearing is a simple but effective optimization for the standard algorithm of persistent homology (ph), which dramatically improves the speed and scalability of ph computations for Vietoris-Rips filtrations. Due to the quick growth of the boundary matrices of a Vietoris-Rips filtration with increasing dimension, clearing is only effective when used in conjunction with a dual (cohomological) variant of the standard algorithm. This approach has not previously been applied successfully to the computation of two-parameter ph. We introduce a cohomological algorithm for computing minimal free resolutions of two-parameter ph that allows for clearing. To derive our algorithm, we extend the duality principles which underlie the one-parameter approach to the two-parameter setting. We provide an implementation and report experimental run times for function-Rips filtrations. Our method is faster than the current state-of-the-art by a factor of up to 20.

The Universal 𝓁^p-Metric on Merge Trees

Authors: Robert Cardona, Justin Curry, Tung Lam, and Michael Lesnick

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 224, 38th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2022)

Abstract
Adapting a definition given by Bjerkevik and Lesnick for multiparameter persistence modules, we introduce an 𝓁^p-type extension of the interleaving distance on merge trees. We show that our distance is a metric, and that it upper-bounds the p-Wasserstein distance between the associated barcodes. For each p ∈ [1,∞], we prove that this distance is stable with respect to cellular sublevel filtrations and that it is the universal (i.e., largest) distance satisfying this stability property. In the p = ∞ case, this gives a novel proof of universality for the interleaving distance on merge trees.

Computing the Multicover Bifiltration

Authors: René Corbet, Michael Kerber, Michael Lesnick, and Georg Osang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 189, 37th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2021)

Abstract
Given a finite set A ⊂ ℝ^d, let Cov_{r,k} denote the set of all points within distance r to at least k points of A. Allowing r and k to vary, we obtain a 2-parameter family of spaces that grow larger when r increases or k decreases, called the multicover bifiltration. Motivated by the problem of computing the homology of this bifiltration, we introduce two closely related combinatorial bifiltrations, one polyhedral and the other simplicial, which are both topologically equivalent to the multicover bifiltration and far smaller than a Čech-based model considered in prior work of Sheehy. Our polyhedral construction is a bifiltration of the rhomboid tiling of Edelsbrunner and Osang, and can be efficiently computed using a variant of an algorithm given by these authors as well. Using an implementation for dimension 2 and 3, we provide experimental results. Our simplicial construction is useful for understanding the polyhedral construction and proving its correctness.

Exact Computation of the Matching Distance on 2-Parameter Persistence Modules

Authors: Michael Kerber, Michael Lesnick, and Steve Oudot

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 129, 35th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2019)

Abstract
The matching distance is a pseudometric on multi-parameter persistence modules, defined in terms of the weighted bottleneck distance on the restriction of the modules to affine lines. It is known that this distance is stable in a reasonable sense, and can be efficiently approximated, which makes it a promising tool for practical applications. In this work, we show that in the 2-parameter setting, the matching distance can be computed exactly in polynomial time. Our approach subdivides the space of affine lines into regions, via a line arrangement. In each region, the matching distance restricts to a simple analytic function, whose maximum is easily computed. As a byproduct, our analysis establishes that the matching distance is a rational number, if the bigrades of the input modules are rational.
