Learning outcomes
This reading course is devoted to some topics in homological algebra and representation theory. Prerequisites: Representation Theory.
Program
The first part will consist in an introductory lecture series "Quivers and representations" by Raquel Coelho Simoes
from Lancaster University in the period March 15-25, see
https://www.di.univr.it/?ent=seminario&id=5596
With this background, we will then focus on some algebraic and homological methods that are applied in topological data analysis. Given a set of data, which is viewed as a set of points in euclidean space, the idea is to detect the topological features which are relevant and thus persist when varying the scale of observation. This leads to the notion of persistent homology, which is investigated with methods from homological algebra and representation theory of quivers.
We will study some aspects of this algebraic approach to persistence by reading the following material:
• Chapters 1.1. and 1.2 in
Oudot, S.Y., Persistence theory: from quiver representations to data analysis. Mathematical Surveys and Monographs, 209. American Mathematical Society, Providence, RI, (2015).
• B. Blanchette, T. Brüstle, E.J. Hanson: Homological approximations in persistence theory, preprint 2021, https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.07632
Students interested in a short introduction to persistence homology may watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJSaTaEQWDA
Please note: the prerequisite Representation Theory is helpful, but not strictly necessary for attending this course.
Examination Methods
Students actively participate in the course and deliver a seminar talk.
Type D and Type F activities
Le attività formative di tipologia D sono a scelta dello studente, quelle di tipologia F sono ulteriori conoscenze utili all’inserimento nel mondo del lavoro (tirocini, competenze trasversali, project works, ecc.). In base al Regolamento Didattico del Corso, alcune attività possono essere scelte e inserite autonomamente a libretto, altre devono essere approvate da apposita commissione per verificarne la coerenza con il piano di studio. Le attività formative di tipologia D o F possono essere ricoperte dalle seguenti attività.
1. Insegnamenti impartiti presso l'Università di Verona
Comprendono gli insegnamenti sotto riportati e/o nel Catalogo degli insegnamenti (che può essere filtrato anche per lingua di erogazione tramite la Ricerca avanzata).
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: se l'insegnamento è compreso tra quelli sottoelencati, lo studente può inserirlo autonomamente durante il periodo in cui il piano di studi è aperto; in caso contrario, lo studente deve fare richiesta alla Segreteria, inviando a carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it il modulo nel periodo indicato.
2. Attestato o equipollenza linguistica CLA
Oltre a quelle richieste dal piano di studi, per gli immatricolati dall'A.A. 2021/2022 vengono riconosciute:
- Lingua inglese: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza superiore a quello richiesto dal corso di studio (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
- Altre lingue e italiano per stranieri: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza a partire da A2 (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
Tali cfu saranno riconosciuti, fino ad un massimo di 6 cfu complessivi, di tipologia F se il piano didattico lo consente, oppure di tipologia D. Ulteriori crediti a scelta per conoscenze linguistiche potranno essere riconosciuti solo se coerenti con il progetto formativo dello studente e se adeguatamente motivati.
Gli immatricolati fino all'A.A. 2020/2021 devono consultare le informazioni che si trovano qui.
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: richiedere l’attestato o l'equipollenza al CLA e inviarlo alla Segreteria Studenti - Carriere per l’inserimento dell’esame in carriera, tramite mail: carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it
3. Competenze trasversali
Scopri i percorsi formativi promossi dal TALC - Teaching and learning center dell'Ateneo, destinati agli studenti regolarmente iscritti all'anno accademico di erogazione del corso https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: non è previsto l'inserimento dell'insegnamento nel piano di studi. Solo in seguito all'ottenimento dell'Open Badge verranno automaticamente convalidati i CFU a libretto. La registrazione dei CFU in carriera non è istantanea, ma ci saranno da attendere dei tempi tecnici.
4. Periodo di stage/tirocinio
Oltre ai CFU previsti dal piano di studi (verificare attentamente quanto indicato sul Regolamento Didattico): qui informazioni su come attivare lo stage.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and soon also via the Univr app.
Double degree
The University of Verona, through a network of agreements with foreign universities, offers international courses that enable students to gain a Double/Joint degree at the time of graduation. Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
The latest Call for applications for Double/Joint Degrees at the University of Verona is available now!
Alternative learning activities
In order to make the study path more flexible, it is possible to request the substitution of some modules with others of the same course of study in Mathematics at the University of Verona (if the educational objectives of the modules to be substituted have already been achieved in the previous career), or with others of the course of study in Mathematics at the University of Trento.Attachments

Need to activate a thesis internship
For thesis-related internships, it is not always necessary to activate an internship through the Internship Office. For further information, please consult the dedicated document, which can be found in the 'Documents' section of the Internships and work orientation - Science e Engineering service.
Final examination regulations
Upon completion of the Master’s degree dissertation students are awarded 32 CFU. The final examination consists of a written dissertation on a specific topic agreed with a supervising professor and presented to a commission (Dissertation Committee).
The dissertation can be high-level theoretical or experimental (in the latter case, it may focus on either basic or applied research), it can deal with a theoretical topic or propose the resolution of a specific problem, or description of a work project, and may be carried out at universities, research institutions, schools, laboratories and companies in the framework of internships, traineeships, study stays in Italy and abroad. The dissertation must be original and written by the student under the guidance of a Supervisor. At the request of the student, the dissertation may be written and presented in Italian.
Professors belonging to the Mathematics Teaching Committee, the Department of Computer Science, and any associated departments may be appointed as Supervisors, as well as any professors from the University of Verona whose area of interest (SSD - Scientific-disciplinary Sector) is included in the teaching regulations of the degree programme.
Students may take the final exam only if meeting all requirements set by the School of Sciences and Engineering.
The Master's degree in Mathematics is obtained by successfully passing the final examination and thus earning the 120 CFU included in the study plan.
The material submitted by the student for the final examination will be examined by the Dissertation Committee, which comprises three professors, possibly including the Supervisor, and appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee. The final examination will be assessed based on the following criteria: the student’s performance during the entire study programme, the knowledge acquired during the dissertation work, their understanding of the topic and autonomy of judgment, their ability to apply such knowledge, and communicate effectively and fully all the outcomes of the work and the main results obtained.
The final examination and the degree ceremony will be carried out, in one of the four graduation sessions throughout the academic year, by the Final Examination Committee appointed by the President of the Teaching Committee, and made up of a president and at least four members chosen from among the professors of the University.
For further information, please refer to the Final examination regulations.
