A new approach is proposed for finding the ”best cut” in a hierarchy of partitions by energy minimization. Said energy must be ”climbing” i.e. it must be hierarchically and scale increasing. It encompasses separable energies [5], [9] and those which composed under supremum [14], [12]. It opens the door to multivariate data processing by providing laws of combination by extrema and by products of composition.
