On heredity of strongly proximal actions

C. Robinson Edward Raja (2003)

Archivum Mathematicum

We prove that action of a semigroup T on compact metric space X by continuous selfmaps is strongly proximal if and only if T action on 𝒫 ( X ) is strongly proximal. As a consequence we prove that affine actions on certain compact convex subsets of finite-dimensional vector spaces are strongly proximal if and only if the action is proximal.

On homeomorphic and diffeomorphic solutions of the Abel equation on the plane

Zbigniew Leśniak (1993)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We consider the Abel equation φ[f(x)] = φ(x) + a on the plane ℝ², where f is a free mapping (i.e. f is an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane onto itself with no fixed points). We find all its homeomorphic and diffeomorphic solutions φ having positive Jacobian. Moreover, we give some conditions which are equivalent to f being conjugate to a translation.

On homogeneous totally disconnected 1-dimensional spaces

Kazuhiro Kawamura, Lex Oversteegen, E. Tymchatyn (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The Cantor set and the set of irrational numbers are examples of 0-dimensional, totally disconnected, homogeneous spaces which admit elegant characterizations and which play a crucial role in analysis and dynamical systems. In this paper we will start the study of 1-dimensional, totally disconnected, homogeneous spaces. We will provide a characterization of such spaces and use it to show that many examples of such spaces which exist in the literature in various fields are all homeomorphic. In particular,...

On indecomposability and composants of chaotic continua

Hisao Kato (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A homeomorphism f:X → X of a compactum X with metric d is expansive if there is c > 0 such that if x,y ∈ X and x ≠ y, then there is an integer n ∈ ℤ such that d ( f n ( x ) , f n ( y ) ) > c . A homeomorphism f: X → X is continuum-wise expansive if there is c > 0 such that if A is a nondegenerate subcontinuum of X, then there is an integer n ∈ ℤ such that d i a m i f n ( A ) > c . Clearly, every expansive homeomorphism is continuum-wise expansive, but the converse assertion is not true. In [6], we defined the notion of chaotic continua of homeomorphisms...

On isometrical extension properties of function spaces

Hisao Kato (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this note, we prove that any “bounded” isometries of separable metric spaces can be represented as restrictions of linear isometries of function spaces C ( Q ) and C ( Δ ) , where Q and Δ denote the Hilbert cube [ 0 , 1 ] and a Cantor set, respectively.
