Theorem:

For a metric space X and sufficiently small r, the Vietoris–Rips

complex at radius r is homotopy equivalent to X.

(See Hausmann, Latschev, Adams and M.)

Conjecture: (Hausmann, 1995)

The higher homotopy groups of the Vietoris–Rips complex

successively vanish predictably as the radius is increased.

(Under study for geodesic spaces.)

Persistent homology fractal dimension (with Pattern Analysis
