Abstract

Given a compact metric space XX, we associate to it an inverse sequence of finite T0T_0 topological spaces. The inverse limit of this inverse sequence contains a homeomorphic copy of XX that is a strong deformation retract. We provide a method to approximate the homology groups of XX and other algebraic invariants. Finally, we study computational aspects and the implementation of this method.
