  1. A. HB and J. Harer, Persistent Steifel Whitney Classes (2008)
    (last updated on 2008/12/12)

    Abstract:
    Cohomology classes are used in Algebraic Topology as a tool that computes the complexity of n-plane bundles over a manifold. This paper introduces a method of including a general cohomology class into study and practice of Persistence for homology. Using a combinatorial formula, we illustrate our new algorithm for Stiefel-Whitney classes.
