In this article, we apply the simplicial complex representation to cellular networks, then using a reduction algorithm for simplicial complexes we provide algorithms for the management of future cellular networks. First, we propose a frequency auto-planning algorithm for the self-configuration of future cellular networks. It aims at minimizing the number of planned frequencies while maximizing the usage of each one. Then, we present an energy conservation algorithm for the self- optimization of future cellular networks during off-peak hours. It takes into account not only coverage, but also user traffic. Finally, we present and discuss the performance of a disaster recovery algorithm using determinantal point processes to patch coverage holes.
