Popis: | Long lived topological features are distinguished from short lived ones (considered as topological noise) in simplicial complexes constructed from complex networks. A new topological invariant, persistent homology, is determined and presented as a parametrized version of a Betti number. Complex networks with distinct degree distributions exhibit distinct persistent topological features. Persistent toplogical attributes, shown to be related to robust quality of networks, also reflect defficiency in certain connectivity properites of networks. Random networks, networks with exponential conectivity distribution and scale-free networks were considered for homological persistency analysis.
