In this talk, I will present the notion of projected barcodes and projected distances for multi-parameter persistence modules. Projected barcodes are defined as derived pushforward of persistence modules onto R. Projected distances come in two flavors: the integral sheaf metrics (ISM) and the sliced convolution distances (SCD). I will explain how the fibered barcode is a particular instance of projected barcodes and how the ISM and the SCD provide lower bounds for the convolution distance.
Furthermore, in the case where the persistence module considered is the sublevel-sets persistence modules of a function f : X -> R^n, we will explain how, under mild conditions, the projected barcode of this module by a linear map u : R^n \to R is the collection of sublevel-sets barcodes of the composition uf . In particular, it can be computed using software dedicated to one-parameter persistence modules. This is joint work with Nicolas Berkouk.
