Exactly two-to-one maps from continua onto some tree-like continua

Wojciech Dębski, J. Heath, J. Mioduszewski (1992)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is known that no dendrite (Gottschalk 1947) and no hereditarily indecomposable tree-like continuum (J. Heath 1991) can be the image of a continuum under an exactly 2-to-1 (continuous) map. This paper enlarges the class of tree-like continua satisfying this property, namely to include those tree-like continua whose nondegenerate proper subcontinua are arcs. This includes all Knaster continua and Ingram continua. The conjecture that all tree-like continua have this property, stated...

Continua which admit no mean

K. Kawamura, E. Tymchatyn (1996)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A symmetric, idempotent, continuous binary operation on a space is called a mean. In this paper, we provide a criterion for the non-existence of mean on a certain class of continua which includes tree-like continua. This generalizes a result of Bell and Watson. We also prove that any hereditarily indecomposable circle-like continuum admits no mean.

Exactly two-to-one maps from continua onto arc-continua

Wojciech Dębski, J. Heath, J. Mioduszewski (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Continuing studies on 2-to-1 maps onto indecomposable continua having only arcs as proper non-degenerate subcontinua - called here arc-continua - we drop the hypothesis of tree-likeness, and we get some conditions on the arc-continuum image that force any 2-to-1 map to be a local homeomorphism. We show that any 2-to-1 map from a continuum onto a local Cantor bundle Y is either a local homeomorphism or a retraction if Y is orientable, and that it is a local homeomorphism if Y is not orientable. ...
