Forman の discrete Morse theory やその変種は, PL topology や組み合せ論など様々な応用が発見されている。
Discrete Morse theory は「計算できる」ため, パターン認識などの具体的な問題にも使われている。 Jerse と Kosta の
[JM09] の Introduction を見ると, どのような分野に応用されているかが分かるが, とてもそれらについてはここに書き切れない。
以下は, algebraic topology に近い応用について目についたもののリストである。
Romero と Sergeraert の [RS] は, まだ後半が未完成のようであるが, simplicial set の degeneracy
operator が discrete Morse theory とうまく合うことを主張していて, それにより simplicial set の chain
complex とその normalized chain complex が chain homotopy 同値になることや Eilenberg-Zilber
の定理が証明できることを示している。代数的トポロジーの基本的なところは, 彼等のアイデアに従って書き直すのがよいのかもしれない。
