Morse theory relates the <critical points> of a <Morse function> to changes in the <homotopy type> of its sublevel sets. Crossing a nondegenerate critical value attaches a cell or handle of dimension equal to the <Morse index>. The theory also applies to <geodesic energy> through broken-geodesic approximations.
