TLDR
The difference between the total mean curvatures of two closed surfaces in ${\Bbb R}^3$ in terms of their total absolute curvatures and the Frechet distance between the volumes they enclose is bound.
Abstract
In this paper we bound the difference between the total mean curvatures of two closed surfaces in ℝ3 in terms of their total absolute curvatures and the Frechet distance between the volumes they enclose. The proof relies on a combination of methods from algebraic topology and integral geometry. We also bound the difference between the lengths of two curves using the same methods.

Approximation and convergence of the intrinsic volume

TL;DR: In this article, a modification of the classic notion of intrinsic volume using persistence moments of height functions is introduced, which converges to the first intrinsic volume of the body as the resolution of the approximation improves.

Uniqueness of models in persistent homology: the case of curves

TL;DR: In this paper, the persistent homology groups of a filtration induced on S 1 by f were analyzed for generic C1 functions and it was shown that f and g are close to each other in the max-norm (up to re-parameterizations) if and only if, for every s?2, the persistent Betti number functions of s o f and s o g coincide, with respect to a suitable distance.
