We study the multiscale simplicial flat norm (MSFN) problem, which computes flat norm at various scales of sets defined as oriented subcomplexes of finite simplicial complexes in arbitrary dimensions. We show that the multiscale simplicial flat norm is NP-complete when homology is defined over integers. We cast the mul…

We show that the recently introduced L1TV functional can be used to explicitly compute the flat norm for co-dimension one boundaries. While this observation alone is very useful, other important implications for image analysis and shape statistics include a method for denoising sets which are not boundaries or which ha…

We classify Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces. In particular we prove that all countable subgroups of GL+(2,R)\mathbf{GL}_+(2,\R) avoiding the set of mappings of norm less than 1 appear as Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces which are Loch Ness monsters. Conversely, a Veech group of any tame flat surf…
