Description

This project saw us exploring the mysterious cosmic web, aiming to understand its evolving topological structure through topological data analysis. Leveraging Persistent Homology, our team mapped the redshift evolution of large-scale cosmic structures, scrutinizing the interactions within the cosmological standard model and the dark matter-energy continuum from redshifts z=46.8 to z=0.
