We present a construction of cellular BF theory (in both abelian and non-abelian variants) on cobordisms equipped with cellular decompositions. Partition functions of this theory are invariant under subdivisions, satisfy a version of the quantum master equation, and satisfy Atiyah-Segal-type gluing formula with respect…

The paper solves curvature problems on infinite hyperbolic surfaces.

Electron Cryo-Tomography (ECT) allows 3D visualization of subcellular structures at the submolecular resolution in close to the native state. However, due to the high degree of structural complexity and imaging limits, the automatic segmentation of cellular components from ECT images is very difficult. To complement an…

This paper studies compactifications of moduli spaces involving closed Riemann surfaces. The first main result identifies the homeomorphism types of these compactifications. The second main result introduces orbicell decompositions on these spaces using semistable ribbon graphs extending the earlier work of Looijenga.

New criteria for ideal circle patterns on surfaces.

Our aim in this paper is to provide a theory of discrete Riemann surfaces based on quadrilateral cellular decompositions of Riemann surfaces together with their complex structure encoded by complex weights. Previous work, in particular of Mercat, mainly focused on real weights corresponding to quadrilateral cells havin…

We construct a small regular cellular decomposition of the Fulton MacPherson operad $FM_2$ that is compatible with the operad composition. The cells are indexed by trees with edges of two colors and vertices labelled by cells of the cacti operad. We compute the generating functions counting the cells, that are algebrai…

Recently V. Krushkal and D. Renardy generalized the Tutte polynomial from graphs to cell complexes. We show that evaluating this polynomial at the origin gives the number of cellular spanning trees in the sense of A. Duval, C. Klivans, and J. Martin. Moreover, after a slight modification, the Tutte-Krushkal-Renardy pol…

We give an entirely geometric proof, without recourse to cellular homology, of the fact that $\partial^2=0$ in the chain complex defined by a handle decomposition of a given manifold. Topological invariance of the resulting `handle homology' is a consequence of Cerf theory.

We introduce the notion of a cut cellular surface (CCS), being a surface with boundary, which is cut in a specified way to be represented in the plane, and is composed of 0-, 1- and 2-cells. We obtain invariants of CCS's under Pachner-like moves on the cellular structure, by counting colourings of the 1-cells with elem…

We prove that if $M$ is a CW-complex and $*$ is a 0-cell of $M$, then the crossed module $Π_2(M,M^1,*)$ does not depend on the cellular decomposition of $M$ up to free products with $Π_2(D^2,S^1,*)$, where $M^1$ is the 1-skeleton of $M$. From this it follows that if $G$ is a finite crossed module and $M$ is finite, the…

This paper concerns the topology of isospectral real manifolds of certain Jacobi elements associated with real split semisimple Lie algebras. The manifolds are related to the compactified level sets of the generalized (nonperiodic) Toda lattice equations defined on the semisimple Lie algebras. We then give a cellular d…

We detail the theory of Discrete Riemann Surfaces. It takes place on a cellular decomposition of a surface, together with its Poincaré dual, equipped with a discrete conformal structure. A lot of theorems of the continuous theory follow through to the discrete case, we define the discrete analogs of period matrices, Ri…

In this paper we generalize cellular algebras by allowing different partial orderings relative to fixed idempotents. For these relative cellular algebras we classify and construct simple modules, and we obtain other characterizations in analogy to cellular algebras. We also give several examples of algebras that are re…

The cohomology ring with coefficients in $\Z_p$, where $p$ is a prime integer, of a Seifert manifold $M$, orientable or not orientable is obtained from a simplicial decomposition of $M$. Many choices must be made before applying Alexander-Whitney formula to get the cup-products. The most difficult choices are those of …

In each manifold $M$ modeled on a finite or infinite dimensional cube $[0,1]^n$ we construct a closed nowhere dense subset $S\subset M$ (called a spongy set) which is a universal nowhere dense set in $M$ in the sense that for each nowhere dense subset $A\subset M$ there is a homeomorphism $h:M\to M$ such that $h(A)\sub…

Decomposition theory explores topological spaces and their quotient spaces.

The paper examines topological features of ReLU networks and their relation to decision boundaries and training loss.

This article introduces descriptive cellular homology on cell complexes, which is an extension of J.H.C. Whitehead's CW topology. A main result is that a descriptive cellular complex is a topology on fibres in a fibre bundle. An application of two forms of cellular homology is given in terms of the persistence of shape…

Defines a simplicial operad related to Fulton-MacPherson.

The cobordism group $N(M^n)$ of codimension-one immersions in the $n$-manifold $M^n$ has a natural filtration induced by any cellular decomposition. The problem addressed in this paper is the explicit computation of the graded group $gr^*N(M^n)$. We introduce some new invariants for immersions enlightening the Atiyah-H…

The study classifies cellular pseudomanifolds and their properties.

Consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected region $Ω$, and let $\bordΩ$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a cellular decomposition of $Ω\cup\bordΩ$, where each 2-cell is either a triangle or a quadrilateral. From these data and a conductance function we construct a canonical pair $(S,f)$ where $S$ is a genus $(m-1)$…

Quantum cellular automata form a homology theory.

The Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem asserts that an affine variety is homotopy equivalent to a space obtained from its generic hyperplane section by attaching some cells. The purpose of this paper is to describe attaching maps of these cells for the complement of a complex hyperplane arrangement defined over real …

For each integer $k\geq 4$ we describe diagrammatically a positively graded Koszul algebra $\mathbb{D}_k$ such that the category of finite dimensional $\mathbb{D}_k$-modules is equivalent to the category of perverse sheaves on the isotropic Grassmannian of type ${\rm D}_k$ or ${\rm B}_{k-1}$, constructible with respect…

We give examples of harmonic cellular maps between negatively curved manifolds which are not diffeomorphisms but are homotopic to diffeomorphisms.

The notion of cellular stratified spaces was introduced in a joint work of the author with Basabe, González, and Rudyak [1009.1851] with the aim of constructing a cellular model of the configuration space of a sphere. In particular, it was shown that the classifying space (order complex) of the face poset of a totally …

Study immersions of punctured 4-manifolds for quantum automata applications.

Main subject of the paper is a (strong) Morse function on a compact manifold with boundary. We construct a cellular structure and discuss its algebraic properties in this paper. Also we get an estimation on Arnold's question on a number of critical points of a Morse function with given boundary condition.

We enumerate a necessary condition for the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct, non-constant, prime closed geodesics on an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold $M$. That is, we show that any Riemannian metric on $M$ admits infinitely many prime closed geodesics such that the energy functional $E:ΛM\to\m…

In this work we develop a cellular equivariant homology functor and apply it to prove an equivariant Euler-Poincare formula and an equivariant Lefschetz theorem.

This paper develops a discrete theory of real Riemann surfaces using quad-graphs and linear discretization.

Machine learning algorithms can be fooled by small well-designed adversarial perturbations. This is reminiscent of cellular decision-making where ligands (called antagonists) prevent correct signalling, like in early immune recognition. We draw a formal analogy between neural networks used in machine learning and model…

Results: Here we present OhmNet, a hierarchy-aware unsupervised node feature le…

We show that tree almost automorphism groups, including Neretin groups, satisfy the analogue of the $F_\infty$-finiteness condition in the world of totally disconnected groups: They possess a cellular action on a contractible cellular complex such that the stabilizers are open and compact and the restriction of the act…

In this paper we continue the study started in part I (posted). We consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected region $Ω$, and let $\bordΩ$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a cellular decomposition of $Ω\cup\bordΩ$, where each 2-cell is either a triangle or a quadrilateral. From these data and a conductance function…

We study the problem of computing the homology of the configuration spaces of a finite cell complex $X$. We proceed by viewing $X$, together with its subdivisions, as a subdivisional space--a kind of diagram object in a category of cell complexes. After developing a version of Morse theory for subdivisional spaces, we …
