Topological Neural Operators

arXiv:2606. 09806v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Topological Neural Operators (TNOs), a principled framework for operator learning on cell complexes that lifts neural operators (NOs) from functions on points and/or edges to topological domains.

Combinatorial Network-Based Manifold Topological Deep Learning for Image Analysis

Combinatorial Network-Based Manifold Topological Deep Learning (CNMTDL) is a new framework that represents medical images as discrete manifolds and decomposes them into three Hodge components. Features from these components are concatenated and fed into a combinatorial complex architecture, enabling higher‑order message passing between 0‑cells and 2‑cells via attention‑based blocks. CNMTDL was evaluated on six 2D and 3D datasets from the MedMNIST v2 benchmark, showing improved performance for medical image analysis.

Graph Representation via Elements of Discrete Morse and Cobordism Theories

The paper proposes using concepts from low‑dimensional topology—specifically Morse theory and cobordism—to enhance graph diffusion models, introducing the MG‑Diff pipeline. It provides theoretical guarantees that the Morse‑theoretic guidance remains stable under small perturbations when a positive decision‑gap exists. The authors demonstrate the approach on spatio‑temporal graph forecasting and graph regeneration, suggesting broader potential for topology in machine learning.

HOPSE: Scalable Higher-Order Positional and Structural Encoder for Combinatorial Representations

arXiv:2505. 15405v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have proven highly effective at modeling relational data, pairwise connections cannot fully capture multi-way relationships naturally present in complex real-world systems.
