  • Homological Algebra for Persistence Modules
    Foundations of Computational Mathematics, 2021
    Co-Authors: Peter Bubenik, Nikola Milićević
    Abstract:

    We develop some aspects of the Homological Algebra of persistence modules, in both the one-parameter and multi-parameter settings, considered as either sheaves or graded modules. The two theories are different. We consider the graded module and sheaf tensor product and Hom bifunctors as well as their derived functors, Tor and Ext, and give explicit computations for interval modules. We give a classification of injective, projective, and flat interval modules. We state Künneth theorems and universal coefficient theorems for the homology and cohomology of chain complexes of persistence modules in both the sheaf and graded module settings and show how these theorems can be applied to persistence modules arising from filtered cell complexes. We also give a Gabriel–Popescu theorem for persistence modules. Finally, we examine categories enriched over persistence modules. We show that the graded module point of view produces a closed symmetric monoidal category that is enriched over itself.

  • Algebraic properties of generalized graph laplacians resistor networks critical groups and Homological Algebra
    SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2018
    Co-Authors: David Jekel, Avi Levy, Will Dana, Austin Stromme, Collin Litterell
    Abstract:

    We propose an Algebraic framework for generalized graph Laplacians which unifies the study of resistor networks, the critical group, and the eigenvalues of the Laplacian and adjacency matrices. Given a graph with boundary $G$ together with a generalized Laplacian $L$ with entries in a commutative ring $R$, we define a generalized critical group $\Upsilon_R(G,L)$. We relate $\Upsilon_R(G,L)$ to spaces of harmonic functions on the network using the Hom, Tor, and Ext functors of Homological Algebra. We study how these Algebraic objects transform under combinatorial operations on the network $(G,L)$, including harmonic morphisms, layer-stripping, duality, and symmetry. In particular, we use layer-stripping operations from the theory of resistor networks to systematize discrete harmonic continuation. This leads to an Algebraic characterization of the graphs with boundary that can be completely layer-stripped, an algorithm for simplifying computation of $\Upsilon_R(G,L)$, and upper bounds for the number of inva...

  • Gorenstein Homological Algebra for rngs and Lie superAlgebras
    arXiv: Representation Theory, 2017
    Co-Authors: Kevin Coulembier
    Abstract:

    We generalise notions of Gorenstein Homological Algebra for rings to the context of arbitrary abelian categories. The results are strongest for module categories of rngs with enough idempotents. We also reformulate the notion of Frobenius extensions of noetherian rings into a setting which allows for direct generalisation to arbitrary abelian categories. The abstract theory is then applied to the BGG category O for Lie superAlgebras, which can now be seen as a "Frobenius extension" of the corresponding category for the underlying Lie Algebra and is therefore "Gorenstein". In particular we obtain new and more general formulae for the Serre functors and instigate the theory of Gorenstein extension groups.

  • Homological Algebra for osp(1/2n)
    Advances in Lie Superalgebras, 2014
    Co-Authors: Kevin Coulembier
    Abstract:

    We discuss several topics of Homological Algebra for the Lie superAlgebra osp(1|2n). First we focus on Bott-Kostant cohomology, which yields classical results although the cohomology is not given by the kernel of the Kostant Laplace operator. Based on this cohomology we can derive strong Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolutions for finite dimensional osp(1|2n)-modules. Then we state the Bott-Borel-Weil theorem which follows immediately from the Bott-Kostant cohomology by using the Peter-Weyl theorem for osp(1|2n). Finally we calculate the projective dimension of irreducible and Verma modules in the category O.

    Abstract:

    We discuss several topics of Homological Algebra for the Lie superAlgebra osp(1|2n). First we focus on Bott-Kostant cohomology, which yields classical results although the cohomology is not given by the kernel of the Kostant quabla operator. Based on this cohomology we can derive strong Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolutions for finite dimensional osp(1|2n)-modules. Then we state the Bott-Borel-Weil theorem which follows immediately from the Bott-Kostant cohomology by using the Peter-Weyl theorem for osp(1|2n). Finally we calculate the projective dimension of irreducible and Verma modules in the category O.
