EULER INTEGRATION OF GAUSSIAN RANDOM FIELDSAND PERSISTENT HOMOLOGYOmer Bobrowski & Matthew Strom Borman Presented by Roei Zohar
The euler Integral- reasoning • As we know, the Euler characteristic is an additive operator oncompact sets: which reminds us of a measure • That is why it seems reasonable to define an integral with respect to this “measure”.
The euler Integral- drawback • The main problem with this kind of integration is that the Euler characteristic is only finitely additive. • This is why under some conditions it can be defined for “constructible functions” as • But we can’t go on from here approximating other functions using CF functions
Euler integral - Extensions • We shall define another form of integration that will be more useful for calculations: • For a tame function the limits are well defined, but generally not equal. • This definition enable us to use the following useful proposition
Euler integral - Extensions • The proof appears in [3] • We will only use the upper Euler integral
Euler integral - Extensions • We continue to derive the following Morse like expression for the integral:
Gaussian Random Fields and the Gaussian Kinematic Formula • Now we turn to show the GK formula which is an explicit expression for the mean value of all Lipschitz-Killing curvatures of excursion sets for zero mean, constant value variance, c², Gaussian random fields. We shall not go into details, you can take a look in [2].
The metric here, under certain conditions is • Under this metric the L-K curvatures are computed in the GKF, and in it the manifold M is bounded
When taking we receive and: • Now we are interested in computing the Euler integral of a Gaussian random field:Let M be a stratified space and let be a Gaussian or Gaussian related random field.We are interested in computing the expected value of the Euler integral of the field g over M.
Theorem: Let M be a compact d-dimensional stratified space, and let be a k-dimensional Gaussian random field satisfying the GKF conditions. For piecewise c² functionlet setting , we have
The difficulty in evaluating the expression above lies in computing the Minkowskifunctionals • In the article few cases where they have been computed are presented, which allows us to simplify , I will mention one of them Real Valued Fields:
Weighted Sum of Critical Values • Taking in Theorem and using Proposition yields the following compact formula
Weighted Sum of Critical Values • The thing to note about the last result, is that the expected value of a weighted sum of the critical values scales like , a 1-dimensional measure of M and not the volume , as one might have expected. • Remark: if we scale the metric by , then scales by
We’ll need this one up ahead The proof relies on

Getting to the point… 1. 2. I’ll leave the proof of the second claim to you
The Expected Euler Characteristic of the Persistent Homology of aGaussian Random Field • In light of the connection between the Euler integral of a function and the Euler characteristic of the function’s persistent homology in place, we will now reinterpret our computations about the expected Euler integral of a Gaussian random field
1. 2. The proof makes use of the following two expressions we saw before:
Computing is not usually possible, but in the case of a real random Gaussian field we can get around it and it comes out that:
