Persistent topology is one of the main tools of topological data analysis. Its key idea is to study filtered spaces, classically pairs \((X, f)\) where \(X\) is a topological space and \(f:X\to \mathbb{R}\) is a filtering function, in the sense that the filtration is given by the sublevel sets \(f^{-1}\left( (-\infty, a]\right)\) for \(a\in \mathbb{R}\) [\textit{H. Edelsbrunner} and \textit{J. Harer}, Contemporary Mathematics 453, 257--282 (2008; Zbl 1145.55007)]. In shape recognition or retrieval it is essential to have distances; for pairs \((X, f)\), the first distance introduced was the \textit{natural pseudodistance}, defined already for \(n\)D valued functions \(f\) in [\textit{P. Frosini} and \textit{M. Mulazzani}, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. Simon Stevin 6, No. 3, 455--464 (1999; Zbl 0937.55010)]. Soon enough, the attention focused on the \textit{persistence module}, a powerful descriptor of such pairs: It is a collection of vector spaces, indexed by the range of \(f\), classically obtained as images of the homology modules under the homorphisms induced by the inclusions of sublevel sets [\textit{A. Zomorodian} and \textit{G. Carlsson}, Discrete Comput. Geom. 33, No. 2, 249--274 (2005; Zbl 1069.55003)]. (But equivalent pairs may fail to be distinguished by their persistence modules: [\textit{F. Cagliari} et al., in: M. Ferri (ed.) et al., Computational topology in image context. 4th international workshop, CTIC 2012, Bertinoro, Italy, May 28--30, 2012. Proceedings. Berlin: Springer. Lecture Notes in Computer Science 7309, 148--156 (2012; Zbl 1357.68262)].) A distance between persistence modules was then introduced in [\textit{F. Chazal} et al., Proc. of the 25th annual symposium on Computational geometry, ACM, 237--246 (2009)] and extended to multidimensional indexing in [\textit{M. Lesnick}, Found. Comput. Math. 15, No. 3, 613--650 (2015; Zbl 1335.55006)]: the \textit{interleaving distance}. Categorification of the process -- started \textit{ante litteram} in [\textit{F. Cagliari} et al., Acta Appl. Math. 67, No.3, 225--235 (2001; Zbl 0995.68098)] -- has been performed systematically in [\textit{P. Bubenik} and \textit{J. A. Scott}, Discrete Comput. Geom. 51, No. 3, 600--627 (2014; Zbl 1295.55005)]. The present article completes the project in two directions: First, it extends the indexing to any preordered set. Second, it develops a full theory of the interleaving distance. Keystone of the paper is the notion of \textit{translation} in a preordered set; the notions of \textit{sublinear projection} and of \textit{superlinear family} provide the connection with the classic interleaving distance. The metric setting is as wide as the one of \textit{Lawvere metrics} (no symmetry required, distinct objects may have zero distance). It might seem that the authors have lost sight of the original object of persistence, plunging in a totally formal setting, but this is not the case: Section 4.3, \textit{Inverse-Image Persistence Theories}, is devoted to recover most flavours of the current topological persistence as particular cases. Stability is also treated in a general way. All in all, this paper gives the (presently?) most general and most powerful setting for dealing with distances of persistence modules.
