Abstract (arXiv)

We introduce a fractal dimension for a metric space defined in terms of the persistent homology of extremal subsets of that space. We exhibit hypotheses under which this dimension is comparable to the upper box dimension; in particular, the dimensions coincide for subsets of ℝ2 whose upper box dimension exceeds 1.5. These results are related to extremal questions about the number of persistent homology intervals of a set of n points in a metric space.
