The Sierpinski pyramid has Hausdorff dimension 2 but topological dimension 3, or am I mistaken?



Its Hausdorff dimension is something like ~1.6 and topological dimension is 1.


Pyramid, not triangle. Maybe the topological dimension of that is not 3, I don't know, I'm not familiar with the concept. But the fractal dimension is definitely 2.


Ah. Topological dimension is definitely not 3. It's almost certainly just 1.

Hausdorff dimension probably 2 or 2ish.
