The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The reading

The paper's central claim is that the field of topological data analysis and topological deep learning has outgrown persistent homology, and that the many generalizations now filling the field can be organized into three branches defined by the branch of topology they use: algebraic topology for point clouds, differential topology for data on manifolds, and geometric topology for curves embedded in 3-space. It argues that no previous review has covered these generalizations together with their machine-learning vectorizations, and that such a map is needed for practitioners to choose the right tool. The paper further claims that spectral methods, especially persistent Laplacians and persistent Dirac operators, extend persistent homology by encoding both topological invariants and the geometric evolution of shapes during filtration. If this organizational map is right, a reader can select a TDA method by asking what kind of data they have and which topological properties matter.

What carries the argument

The central organizing device is a two-axis classification: the branch of topology (algebraic, differential, geometric) paired with the input data type (point cloud, distance matrix, network, manifold, sequence, knot or link, and data with extra non-geometric information). The workhorse technical object is the persistent topological Laplacian, defined as a multiscale family of operators whose harmonic spectra reproduce persistent homology and whose non-harmonic spectra encode geometric or combinatorial evolution; the persistent Dirac operator, whose square yields the persistent Laplacians, is presented as a first-order refinement suited to local features and quantum computation.

What would settle it

Run the review's data-type-to-tool guidance on a standard benchmark for sequential data, such as neural spike decoding: if a simple topological neural network of the kind the paper excludes outperforms the review's recommended sequential-data methods (persistent path Laplacians, k-mer topology, or sliding-window persistence) on the same test set, the claim that the review serves as a complete guide to optimal tool selection is falsified.

Watch

Extended reading notes

Core claim

The paper's discovery, on its own terms, is that the post-persistent-homology landscape divides naturally into algebraic topology approaches (persistent combinatorial Laplacians, persistent Dirac operators, sheaf theory, Mayer topology, interaction topology), differential topology approaches (persistent de Rham cohomology, persistent Hodge Laplacians, Hodge decomposition), and geometric topology approaches for knots and links (multiscale Gauss linking integrals, persistent Jones polynomials, persistent Khovanov homology). For each family, the paper claims, the key advance is that topological information is no longer reduced to barcodes alone: persistent Laplacians and Dirac operators provide spectra whose zero-eigenvalue multiplicities recover persistent Betti numbers while nonzero eigenvalues capture homotopic geometric shape changes that persistent homology misses. The paper also claims that these methods, together with their vectorizations, form a complete practical pipeline, and that the choice of topological model should be driven by the intrinsic nature of the data: simplicial complexes and hypergraphs for point clouds, manifolds with boundary for images and volumetric data, and knot-theoretic objects for open or closed curves in space.

Load-bearing premise

The review's usefulness depends on the methods it selected being representative of the field, and it explicitly admits in Section 6 that many significant contributions are omitted, including topological neural networks; if those omissions change which tool is best for some data type, the organizational map fails even though each individual description may be correct.

Editorial extensions

If this is right

  • A practitioner with point-cloud data can choose between simplicial-complex methods and spectral Laplacian or Dirac methods, with the spectral methods adding geometric information that persistent homology alone cannot see.
  • For data that naturally lives on manifolds, such as MRI volumes or isosurfaces, the review points to persistent de Rham-Hodge theory and Hodge decomposition as the appropriate tools, with boundary conditions playing a role that combinatorial Laplacians cannot capture.
  • For curves embedded in 3-space, including proteins, DNA, and polymers, the review identifies multiscale Gauss linking integrals, persistent Jones polynomials, and persistent Khovanov homology as the applicable geometric-topology methods, and notes that these work for open curves where classical knot invariants fail.
  • Vectorization methods, ranging from persistence images and landscapes to eigenvalue and eigenvector summaries and Hodge-decomposition images, are what make each family usable inside machine-learning pipelines, and the review maps which representation fits which topological descriptor.
  • The paper identifies sequential data and local-topology methods as open directions, and flags the lack of robust computational algorithms for persistent Khovanov homology as an urgent gap.

Reading between the lines

Editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • If the three-branch organization is correct, the field's main axis of innovation is not new topological invariants but new operators on existing complexes: Laplacians, Dirac operators, and their persistent versions are what turn topology into a quantitative, machine-learnable signal.
  • Because the paper deliberately excludes topological neural networks, its title's promise of 'topological deep learning' is narrower than the current field; readers should treat the data-type-to-tool map as a guide to feature-based TDA, not to end-to-end topological network architectures.
  • A testable consequence is that on a shared benchmark suite, methods from the differential branch should beat algebraic-topology methods on manifold-structured data, and geometric-topology methods should beat them on knot-like data; such a benchmark would directly probe the paper's organizational claim.
  • The persistent Khovanov homology framework, though promising for unknot detection and local entanglement, is likely to remain computationally prohibitive for large datasets until the efficient algorithms the paper calls for are developed.

Referee Report

4 major / 8 minor

Summary. This manuscript is a survey-style review of topological data analysis (TDA) and topological deep learning (TDL) methods that go beyond the standard persistent homology pipeline. It organizes the material into three broad families: algebraic topology approaches (persistent homology variants, persistent combinatorial/Laplacian and Dirac constructions, sheaf, Mayer, and interaction topology), differential topology approaches (persistent de Rham cohomology, persistent Hodge Laplacians, Hodge decomposition), and geometric topology approaches for curves in 3-space (multiscale Gauss linking integrals, localized/persistent Jones polynomials, persistent Khovanov homology). The final section discusses input data types, topological representations, software, and machine-learning vectorization. The authors claim that no prior review covers the generalizations of persistent homology together with their vectorization, and they present the paper as a comprehensive guide for selecting topological tools for different data types.

Significance. If the scope were made fully coherent, this review would be a useful entry point for researchers new to TDA beyond the standard Vietoris–Rips persistent homology pipeline. Its three-way organization by algebraic, differential, and geometric topology is pedagogically sensible, and it collects many recent developments from the spectral TDA literature in one place. The paper is also genuinely useful for its extensive catalog of input-data types, software packages, and vectorization strategies, including newer spectral representations. However, the significance of the central claim is undercut by a mismatch between the title/abstract and the actual coverage: topological deep learning in the sense of topological neural networks is explicitly excluded in Section 6, despite the title and abstract promising TDL beyond persistent homology. The review is therefore best assessed as a review of TDA generalizations and their vectorization rather than a comprehensive review of both TDA and TDL.

major comments (4)
  1. [Abstract, Introduction, Section 6] The title and Abstract promise a comprehensive review of 'TDA and TDL beyond persistent homology,' but Section 6 states that the authors 'restricted ourselves from elaborating on' the development of topological neural networks, referring readers elsewhere. Topological neural networks, such as message-passing simplicial/cell complexes, persistent-homology layers, and topological losses, are exactly the TDL content that the title and Abstract lead readers to expect. The few mentions in Sections 5.1.4 and 5.1.5 (TCNN, simplicial message passing networks, cell complex encoders) are not systematic coverage. This is not a mathematical error, but it is a load-bearing inconsistency: under the stated scope, a reader selecting TDL methods cannot rely on this review as a comprehensive guide. The authors should either revise the title/Abstract to state that the survey covers TDA generalizations and their vectorization, with TDL treated only in passing, or substantially expand Section 5 to cover topological neural network architectures.
  2. [Section 1, paragraph 2 and Section 6] The paper repeatedly highlights specific application-level successes as evidence for the reviewed methods, including the statement that 'one of the most impressive achievements of persistent topological Laplacians is the prediction of emerging dominant SARS-COV-2 variants BA4 and BA5 [65]' and similar claims about D3R Grand Challenges and SARS-CoV-2 forecasting. These achievements are cited to papers from the authors' own group, and no independent replication is discussed. For a review, this is not fatal, but the phrasing 'most impressive achievements' is stronger than the evidence supplied. It would be more appropriate to attribute these as reported results from the cited papers, or to add a caveat that independent validation of these application-level claims is still needed.
  3. [Section 2.2.2, Eq. for persistent combinatorial Laplacian] The definition of the persistent boundary operator and the persistent combinatorial Laplacian is presented with a formula using the restriction of ∂^j_{k+1} to a subgroup C^{i,j}_{k+1}, but the precise domain and the role of the projection P^i_k are not fully formalized in the text. Since the paper is a review and explicitly avoids excessive technical detail, this level of presentation is defensible, but the notation in the displayed formula is confusing: the operator (∂^i_k)^* appears with a star that is not defined in the text, and the construction of C^{i,j}_{k+1} is only described informally. The authors should at least state that ∂^{i,j}_{k+1} is the composition of the boundary operator on K_j followed by projection onto chains of K_i, and define adjoints with respect to the chosen inner product.
  4. [Section 5.3, overall featurization discussion] The paper claims to provide a guide for selecting topological tools for different input data, but the selection criteria in Section 5.1 are presented mostly as qualitative recommendations without comparative evidence. For example, Section 5.1.5 discusses several TSA methods (Takens embedding, sliding window, k-mer topology, Δ-complex approaches) without a clear statement of when one outperforms another. This is a limitation of the review's utility claim rather than a technical error. Adding a concise comparison table of methods versus data types would substantially strengthen the practical guide aspect.
minor comments (8)
  1. [Section 2.1.2] There is a typo: 'interSection' should be 'intersection' in the description of the Čech complex.
  2. [Section 2.1.2] The word 'persitence' appears instead of 'persistence' in the definition of birth and death.
  3. [Section 2.1.3] In the paragraph on graph-complex-based persistent homology, 'maainly' should be 'mainly'.
  4. [Section 2.3.2] The displayed formula for the persistent Dirac operator has a line break in the subscript '∂^{i,j}_{k+ 1}' that may cause confusion; it should be '∂^{i,j}_{k+1}'.
  5. [Section 4.2] The text uses 'spacial scales' where 'spatial scales' is intended.
  6. [Table 1] The table lists 'Dinoysus' but the correct software name is 'Dionysus' (ref. [229]). Also, the table caption would benefit from noting whether the listed software for persistent Laplacians includes the newer packages such as HERMES and PersistLap.
  7. [Section 5.2.6] The description of Mapper is included under 'Software and code resources,' but Mapper is an algorithm/visualization tool rather than a package for computing persistent homology or Laplacians; this is a minor organizational issue.
  8. [References] Reference [20] is cited as 'The Jones polynomial of collections of open curves in 3-space' but in Section 4.2 the author name is not given; ensure that all in-text citations use a consistent style.

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged · score 2.0 of 10

No derivation-chain circularity: the review contains no input-output derivation chain, its spectral-recovery claims are stated theorems or explicit constructions, and its self-cited flagship applications are externally published, time-ordered forecasts; the disclosed TDL-exclusion is a scope issue, not circularity.

full rationale

This is a review (math.HO) with no claimed derivation from first principles, so there is no input-output chain whose conclusion could equal its premise. The places where a reader might suspect 'recovery by construction' are all explicit theorems or constructions: the isomorphism ker L^{i,j}_k = H^{i,j}_k in Section 2.2.2 is attributed to prior proofs [190, 217]; the persistent Dirac operator is defined and its square is displayed in Section 2.3.2 with the persistent combinatorial Laplacian appearing as an explicit block, so the relationship is shown rather than disguised; and the persistent Hodge Laplacian kernel isomorphism in Section 3.3 is likewise stated as a theorem. None of these is a fitted parameter renamed as a prediction. The paper's evaluative claims (e.g., 'one of the most impressive achievements of persistent topological Laplacians is the prediction of emerging dominant SARS-COV-2 variants BA4 and BA5 [65]', and the BA.2 forecast [62]) rest on the authors' own prior papers, and the method selection is concentrated on the authors' line of work; this is a real coverage/objectivity concern and is the reason the score is not 0. However, those cited results are externally published, time-ordered predictions about variants that subsequently emerged, so under the reviewing rules they count as independent, falsifiable evidence rather than self-citation circularity. The review also explicitly admits in Section 6 that it 'inevitably omit[s] many significant contributions' and that 'to focus on TDA, we have restricted ourselves from elaborating on' topological neural networks, which makes the title's 'TDL ... beyond persistent homology' a scope overclaim; that internal inconsistency is flagged here, but it is a scope/coverage defect, not a circular reduction of a result to its own input. No circular step can therefore be exhibited with a specific reduction, and the appropriate finding is no significant circularity.

Topological data analysis (TDA) is a rapidly evolving field in applied mathematics and data science that leverages tools from topology to uncover robust, shape-driven insights in complex datasets. The main workhorse is persistent homology, a technique rooted in algebraic topology. Paired with topological deep learning (TDL) or topological machine learning, persistent homology has achieved tremendous success in a wide variety of applications in science, engineering, medicine, and industry. However, persistent homology has many limitations due to its high-level abstraction, insensitivity to non-topological changes, and reliance on point cloud data. This paper presents a comprehensive review of TDA and TDL beyond persistent homology. It analyzes how persistent topological Laplacians and Dirac operators provide spectral representations to capture both topological invariants and homotopic evolution. Other formulations are presented in terms of sheaf theory, Mayer topology, and interaction topology. For data on differentiable manifolds, techniques rooted in differential topology, such as persistent de Rham cohomology, persistent Hodge Laplacian, and Hodge decomposition, are reviewed. For one-dimensional (1D) curves embedded in 3-space, approaches from geometric topology are discussed, including multiscale Gauss-link integrals, persistent Jones polynomials, and persistent Khovanov homology. This paper further discusses the appropriate selection of topological tools for different input data, such as point clouds, sequential data, data on manifolds, curves embedded in 3-space, and data with additional non-geometric information. A review is also given of various topological representations, software packages, and machine learning vectorizations. Finally, this review ends with concluding remarks.
