title = "Dimensions of metric spaces",
abstract = "Subsets of ℝn may have {\textquotedblleft}intrinsic{\textquotedblright} dimensions that are much lower than n. Consider, for example, two distinct vectors a, b ∈ ℝn and the line L = \{a + tb | ∈ ℝ\}. Intuitively, L has the intrinsic dimensionality 1; however, L is embedded in ℝn and from this point of view is an n-dimensional object. In this chapter we examine formalisms that lead to the definition of this intrinsic dimensionality.",
