Abstract

We provide explicit and efficient reduction algorithms based on discrete Morse theory to simplify homology computation for a very general class of complexes. A set-valued map of top-dimensional cells between such complexes is a natural discrete approximation of an underlying (and possibly unknown) continuous function, especially when the evaluation of that function is subject to measurement errors. We introduce a new Morse theoretic preprocessing framework for deriving chain maps from such set-valued maps, and hence provide an effective scheme for computing the morphism induced on homology by the approximated continuous function.

Fußnoten
1
See [5] for a description of a complex in ℝ8 with approximately 4.5×106 vertices that arises from the study of natural images.
 
2
As indicated earlier, homology is computed via Smith normal form all these preprocessing algorithms can be interpreted algebraically. The difference is that the chain complex is constructed as late as possible and the algebraic operations are often motivated by geometric and combinatorial considerations.
 
3
As is shown in [25], there are relationships between these two settings.
