From trees to barcodes and back again II: Combinatorial and probabilistic aspects of a topological inverse problem

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Lida Kanari, Adélie Eliane Garin

In this paper we consider two aspects of the inverse problem of how to construct merge trees realizing a given barcode. Much of our investigation exploits a recently discovered connection between the symmetric group and barcodes in general position, based ...

Multiplicity-free Representations of Algebraic Groups

Donna Testerman, Martin W. Liebeck

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over K. We address the problem of classifying triples (G, H, V ), where H is a proper connected subgroup of G, and V is a finitedimensional ir ...

Lie groups in the symmetric group: Reducing Ulam's problem to the simple case

Nicolas Monod

Ulam asked whether all Lie groups can be represented faithfully on a countable set. We establish a reduction of Ulam's problem to the case of simple Lie groups. In particular, we solve the problem for all solvable Lie groups and more generally Lie groups w ...

From Trees to Barcodes and Back Again:A Combinatorial, Probabilistic and Geometric Study of a Topological Inverse Problem

Adélie Eliane Garin

In this thesis, we investigate the inverse problem of trees and barcodes from a combinatorial, geometric, probabilistic and statistical point of view.Computing the persistent homology of a merge tree yields a barcode B. Reconstructing a tree from B involve ...

Leveraging topology, geometry, and symmetries for efficient Machine Learning

Michaël Defferrard

When learning from data, leveraging the symmetries of the domain the data lies on is a principled way to combat the curse of dimensionality: it constrains the set of functions to learn from. It is more data efficient than augmentation and gives a generaliz ...

Lie groups as permutation groups: Ulam's problem in the nilpotent case

Nicolas Monod

Ulam asked whether every connected Lie group can be represented on a countable structure. This is known in the linear case. We establish it for the first family of non-linear groups, namely in the nilpotent case. Further context is discussed to illustrate ...

Subgroups of elliptic elements of the Cremona group

The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the complex projective plane. In this paper we classify its subgroups that consist only of elliptic elements using elementary model theory. This yields in particular a description of the struc ...

Local invertibility and sensitivity of atomic structure-feature mappings

Michele Ceriotti, Sergey Pozdnyakov

Background: The increasingly common applications of machine-learning schemes to atomic-scale simulations have triggered efforts to better understand the mathematical properties of the mapping between the Cartesian coordinates of the atoms and the variety o ...

Optimal radial basis for density-based atomic representations

Michele Ceriotti, Sergey Pozdnyakov, Jigyasa Nigam, Félix Benedito Clément Musil, Alexander Jan Goscinski

The input of almost every machine learning algorithm targeting the properties of matter at the atomic scale involves a transformation of the list of Cartesian atomic coordinates into a more symmetric representation. Many of the most popular representations ...

High-order geometric integrators for representation-free Ehrenfest dynamics

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi

Ehrenfest dynamics is a useful approximation for ab initio mixed quantum-classical molecular dynamics that can treat electronically nonadiabatic effects. Although a severe approximation to the exact solution of the molecular time-dependent Schrödinger equa ...
