| Popis: | We develop a theory of persistent homology for directed simplicial complexes which detects persistent directed cycles in odd dimensions. We relate directed persistent homology to classical persistent homology, prove some stability results, and discuss the computational challenges of our approach. Our directed persistent homology theory is motivated by homology with semiring coefficients: by explicitly removing additive inverses, we are able to detect directed cycles algebraically. Comment: 29 pages, 6 figures. The manuscript has been rewritten using ring homology, and the results regarding homology have been moved to an Appendix, where they are presented in their full generality. We are thankful to the referees for their helpful comments which have greatly improved the presentation of the article |
