====== application topaz ====== The __TOP__ology __A__pplication __Z__oo deals with abstract simplicial complexes. A complex is given as a list of facets. You can ask for its global properties ([[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex#MANIFOLD |manifold recognition]], [[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex#HOMOLOGY |homology groups]], etc.), explore the local vertex environment ([[.:topaz#star_subcomplex |stars]], [[.:topaz#link_subcomplex |links]], etc.), and make a lot of constructions. The visualization means are constrained, as they are mostly based on the ''[[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex#GRAPH |GRAPH]]'' (1-skeleton) of a complex. imports from: * application [[.:common|common]] * application [[.:graph|graph]] uses: * application [[.:group|group]] * application [[.:ideal|ideal]] ===== Objects ===== ** ''[[.:topaz:GeometricSimplicialComplex |GeometricSimplicialComplex]]'':\\ A geometric simplicial complex, i.e., a simplicial complex with a geometric realization. //Scalar// is the numeric data type used for the coordinates. ** ''[[.:topaz:HyperbolicSurface |HyperbolicSurface]]'':\\ A hyperbolic surface (noncompact, finite area) is given by a triangulation ''[[.:topaz:HyperbolicSurface#DCEL |DCEL]]'' (the topological data) and ''[[.:topaz:HyperbolicSurface#PENNER_COORDINATES |PENNER_COORDINATES]]'' (the metric data). ** ''[[.:topaz:MorseMatching |MorseMatching]]'':\\ A Morse matching is a reorientation of the arcs in the Hasse diagram of a simplicial complex such that at most one arc incident to each face is reoriented (matching condition) and the resulting orientation is acyclic (acyclicity condition). Morse matchings capture the main structure of discrete Morse functions, see > Robin Forman: Morse Theory for Cell-Complexes, > Advances in Math., 134 (1998), pp. 90-145. .. This property is computed by one of two heuristics. The default heuristic is a simple greedy algorithm ([[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex |greedy]]). The alternative is to use a canceling algorithm due to Forman ([[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex |cancel]]) or both ([[.:topaz:SimplicialComplex |both]]) together. Note that the computation of a Morse matching of largest size is NP-hard. See > Michael Joswig, Marc E. Pfetsch: Computing Optimal Morse Matchings > SIAM J.
