Discrete, Computational and Algebraic Topology

University of Copenhagen

November 10-14, 2014


Organized by Herbert Edelsbrunner (IST Austria/Duke U), Lisbeth Fajstrup (Aalborg U), Frank Lutz (U Copenhagen/TU Berlin), Konstantin Mischaikow (Rutgers U).

Scope of the workshop

The computation of algebraic invariants and other structural information is at the heart of

  • Discrete Topology/Topological Combinatorics (in theory)

as well as of

  • Computational Topology (in applications).

In this workshop, we aim at bringing together researchers with synergistic research interests from both areas to foster interaction and to exchange ideas on

  • homology calculations,
  • discrete Morse theory,
  • persistent homology,
  • complexity issues,
  • random and structural aspects

of simplicial/cell complexes of a theoretical origin or from applied topological data.
