The field of DNA Topology includes the study of DNA geometry (supercoiling) and topology (knots and links) and their effects on DNA in vitro and in vivo. Statistical mechanics-based polygonal models of DNA have proved useful for addressing many...

Persistent Homology is an application of algebraic topology (filtered chain complexes) to statistics. Roughly speaking, one naturally associates filtered chain complexes to data in a variety of ways. Persistent homology is the structure of how the...

DNA topology is the study of the geometry (supercoiling) and topology (knotting and linking) of DNA. Knots and links in DNA are known to obstruct normal cellular processes and geometric factors such as the amount of writhe or supercoiling are known...
