A Notion of Harmonic Clustering in Simplicial Complexes

We outline a novel clustering scheme for simplicial complexes that produces clusters of simplices in a way that is sensitive to the homology of the complex. The method is inspired by, and can be seen as a higher-dimensional version of, graph spectral clustering. The algorithm involves only sparse eigenproblems, and is therefore computationally efficient. We believe that it has broad application as a way to extract features from simplicial complexes that often arise in topological data analysis.
