March 2024:
As rains continue to fill local lakes and reservoirs,
onlookers are eagerly anticipating seeing the water of Napa County’s Lake Berryessa overflow into its funnel-like spillway, dubbed
“the Glory Hole,”
which channels water 200 feet straight down near Monticello Dam and into Putah Creek on the other side.
During these overflows, the water flowing into the hole looks like the drain of a giant bathtub, or a wormhole to another dimension.
For those…

It’s important to know (IMO) that headings can never go beyond level 9 with this feature:

Cheeger Inequalities for the Persistent Laplacian

arXiv:2606.02846v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We study Cheeger-type inequalities for persistent Laplacians associated with inclusions of simplicial complexes $\mathcal{K}\hookrightarrow \mathcal{L}$. We introduce a persistent up $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_{q,p,\mathrm{up}}^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ for $p\geq 1$. For $p=2$, this recovers the usual persistent up Laplacian, while for $p=1$ it yields a nonzero persistent Cheeger constant $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$. We prove a Cheeger-type inequality relating $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ to the smallest nonzero eigenvalue of $\Delta_{q,\mathrm{up}}^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$. This gives a persistent extension of recent work by Jost and Zhang (Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci., 2024; arXiv:2302.01069).
We then study two more structured settings. Under a locally complete $q$-skeleton assumption on $\mathcal{K}$, we extend the complete-skeleton isoperimetric inequality of Parzanchevski--Rosenthal--Tessler (Combinatorica, 2016; arXiv:1207.0638) to the persistent setting. For orientable $(q 1)$-dimensional pseudomanifolds, we prove a Kron-type reduction of the persistent up Laplacian to a vertex- and edge-weighted graph Laplacian, possibly with Dirichlet boundary terms, and obtain two-sided Cheeger inequalities; this is related to the dual-graph perspective in the work of Steenbergen--Klivans--Mukherjee (Adv. Appl. Math., 2014; arXiv:1209.5091). We also describe the nonzero persistent Cheeger constant $\varphi_q^{\mathcal{K},\mathcal{L}}$ explicitly in terms of the dual graph in the non-branching pseudomanifold case. Finally, for graph inclusions $H\hookrightarrow G$, we compare the persistent Cheeger constants introduced here with the Kron-reduction Cheeger constants of M\'emoli et al. (SIAM J. Math. Data Sci., 2022; arXiv:2012.02808).
