In recent years there has been a somewhat surprising flow of ideas from the mathematical branch of topology towards applications in the natural sciences. The tale of Topological Data Analysis (TDA) has it, that these methods provide a highly flexible, nonparametric approach to data analysis. Indeed, there are by now several well-known mathematical results that make statements of this kind rigorous. However, successful examples of TDA often build on a deep intuition about the system in question and many aspects of topological methods in data analysis remain a field of active research. The goal of this seminar is to offer a platform where we can learn about the TDA toolkit, discuss articles and new developments, and exchange ideas for the analysis of concrete datasets.
