We show that this problem is NP-complete even if K is embedded in double-struck R3. As a consequence, we show that it is NP-hard to simplify level and sublevel sets of scalar functions on double-struck S3 within a given tolerance constraint. This problem has relevance to the visualization of medical images by isosurfaces. We also show an implication to the theory of well groups of scalar functions: not every well group can be realized by some level set, and deciding whether a well group can be realized is NP-hard."}],"citation":{"chicago":"Attali, Dominique, Ulrich Bauer, Olivier Devillers, Marc Glisse, and André Lieutier. “Homological Reconstruction and Simplification in R3.” Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications.
