Some questions on the composition factor property for atomic mappings.
The notion of atomic mappings was introduced by R. D. Anderson in [1] to describe special decompositions of continua. Soon, atomic mappings turned out to be important tools in continuum theory. In particular, it can be seen in [2] and [5] that these maps are very helpful to construct some special, singular continua. Thus, the mappings have proved to be interesting by themselves, and several of their properties have been discovered, e.g. in [6], [7] and [9]. The reader is referred to Table II of...
We investigate absolute retracts for hereditarily unicoherent continua, and also the continua that have the arc property of Kelley (i.e., the continua that satisfy both the property of Kelley and the arc approximation property). Among other results we prove that each absolute retract for hereditarily unicoherent continua (for tree-like continua, for λ-dendroids, for dendroids) has the arc property of Kelley.
