Geometry is applied in various fields as a method for revealing the structure of data. In this seminar, I will introduce the topological method, fatgraph model, to classify protein structures. I will also introduce another related geometric model and its application to viral glycoprotein analysis. This method provides an a priori prediction of structural rearrangement of proteins.
