Chromatic Topological Data Analysis

Exploring the shape of point configurations has been a key driver in the evolution of TDA (short for topological data analysis) since its infancy. This survey illustrates the recent efforts to broaden these ideas to model spatial interactions among multiple configurations, each distinguished by a color. It describes advances in this area and prepares the ground for further exploration by mentioning unresolved questions and promising research avenues while focusing on the overlap with discrete geometry.
