Clearing in Liability Networks via Sheaves on Directed Hypergraphs

Robert Ghrist

We associate to a decorated liability network a liability sheaf on a directed hypergraph whose hyperedges separate the distribution of payments from the collection of receipts. Cle…

Neural Networks as Local-to-Global Computations

Vicente Bosca, Robert Ghrist

We construct a cellular sheaf from any feedforward ReLU neural network by placing one vertex for each intermediate quantity in the forward pass and encoding each computational step…

Impossible by Degrees: Cohomology & Bistable Visual Paradox

Lewis Ghrist, Robert Ghrist

The Penrose triangle, staircase, and related ``impossible objects'' have long been understood as related to first cohomology : the obstruction to extending locally consistent…

Selective Adaptation of Beliefs and Communication on Cellular Sheaves

Vicente Bosca, Robert Ghrist

We extend opinion dynamics on discourse sheaves to incorporate "directional stubbornness": agents may hold fixed positions in specified directions of their opinion stalk while rema…

Precision-Graded Cohomology and Arithmetic Persistence for Network Sheaves

Robert Ghrist, Cassie Ding

Persistent homology tracks topological features across geometric scales, encoding birth and death of cycles as barcodes. We develop a complementary theory where the filtration para…

Learning from Frustration: Torsor CNNs on Graphs

Daiyuan Li, Shreya Arya, Robert Ghrist

Most equivariant neural networks rely on a single global symmetry, limiting their use in domains where symmetries are instead local. We introduce Torsor CNNs, a framework for learn…
