Klappentext zu „Algebraic Foundations for Applied Topology and Data Analysis “
This book gives an intuitive and hands-on introduction to Topological Data Analysis (TDA). Covering a wide range of topics at levels of sophistication varying from elementary (matrix algebra) to esoteric (Grothendieck spectral sequence), it offers a mirror of data science aimed at a general mathematical audience. The required algebraic background is developed in detail. The first third of the book reviews several core areas of mathematics, beginning with basic linear algebra and applications to data fitting and web search algorithms, followed by quick primers on algebra and topology. The middle third introduces algebraic topology, along with applications to sensor networks and voter ranking. The last third covers key contemporary tools in TDA: persistent and multiparameter persistent homology. Also included is a user's guide to derived functors and spectral sequences (useful but somewhat technical tools which have recently found applications in TDA), and an appendix illustrating a number of software packages used in the field.
Based on a course given as part of a masters degree in statistics, the book is appropriate for graduate students.

Autoren-Porträt von Hal Schenck
Hal Schenck received a BS in Applied Math and Computer Science from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1986. From 1986 to 1990 he served as an Army officer in Georgia and Germany, then returned to graduate school at Cornell, earning his Ph.D. in 1997. After an NSF postdoc at Harvard and Northeastern, he was a professor at Texas A&M (2001-2007), at the University of Illinois (2007-2017), and Chair at Iowa State (2017-2019). Since 2019 he has been the Rosemary Kopel Brown Eminent Scholars Chair at Auburn University. He has earned teaching awards from Cornell and Illinois, and awards for departmental leadership and outreach to student veterans from Iowa State. In 2014 he was a Professor at Universidad de Buenos Aires as a Fulbright fellow, and in 2020 he was named a fellow of the AMS. His research is at the interface of algebra, geometry, and computation.

Pressezitat
"This text book is a great companion for graduate students interested in applied topology. ... the book will remain highly-relevant for years to come; an advantage that does not apply to many other publications in data science. I can highly recommend pairing this book with the equally delightful work by R. W. Ghrist ... . Together, these two books provide a sweeping overview of an exciting nascent field, and I am sure that readers will appreciate them." (Bastian Rieck, zbMATH 1521.55001, 2023)
