Canopies: A Generalization of Vines and Vineyards for Parameterized Persistence (opens in new tab)

In this paper, we provide a new construction for studying parameterized persistence, called a canopy. We give two versions of this construction: the A-canopy, retaining all information about points on the diagonal of the persistence diagram; and the D-canopy, encoding the information of the "standard" persistence diagram. We do this by making a simple but major modification in the persistence bundle representation information: namely, rather tha...
