The operation of (untwisted) Whitehead doubling trivializes the Alexander module of a knot (and consequently, all known abelian invariants), and converts knots to topologically slice ones. In this note we show that Whitehead doubling does not trivialize the rational function that equals to the 2-loop part of the Kontse…

We study robust properties of zero sets of continuous maps f:XRnf:X\to\mathbb{R}^n. Formally, we analyze the family Zr(f)={g1(0):gf<r}Z_r(f)=\{g^{-1}(0):\,\,\|g-f\|<r\} of all zero sets of all continuous maps gg closer to ff than rr in the max-norm. The fundamental geometric property of Zr(f)Z_r(f) is that all its zero sets lie outside o…

Persistence landscapes map persistence diagrams into a function space, which may often be taken to be a Banach space or even a Hilbert space. In the latter case, it is a feature map and there is an associated kernel. The main advantage of this summary is that it allows one to apply tools from statistics and machine lea…
