Intersection Homology Theory
INTRODUCTION WE DEVELOP here a generalization to singular spaces of the Poincare-Lefschetz theory of intersections of homology cycles on manifolds, as announced in [6]. Poincart, in his 1895 paper which founded modern algebraic topology ([18], p. 218; corrected in [19]), studied the intersection of an i-cycle V and a j-cycle W in a compact oriented n-manifold X, in the case of complementary dim...
متن کاملLeaf superposition property for integer rectifiable currents
We consider the class of integer rectifiable currents without boundary in Rn × R satisfying a positivity condition. We establish that these currents can be written as a linear superposition of graphs of finitely many functions with bounded variation.
متن کاملHomology stratifications and intersection homology
A homology stratification is a filtered space with local homology groups constant on strata. Despite being used by Goresky and MacPherson [3] in their proof of topological invariance of intersection homology, homology stratifications do not appear to have been studied in any detail and their properties remain obscure. Here we use them to present a simplified version of the Goresky–MacPherson pr...
متن کاملInformation Theory on Rectifiable Sets
Entropy and—maybe even more so—mutual information are invaluable tools for analyzing properties of probability distributions, especially in coding theory. While there are general definitions for both concepts available for arbitrary probability distributions, these tend to be hard to work with and the literature (e.g., [CT06]) focuses on either discrete, or continuous random variables. In this ...
متن کاملPersistent Intersection Homology
The theory of intersection homology was developed to study the singularities of a topologically stratified space. This paper incorporates this theory into the already developed framework of persistent homology. We demonstrate that persistent intersection homology gives useful information about the relationship between an embedded stratified space and its singularities. We give, and prove the co...
