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

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. ...

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...

Whitney Preserving Maps onto Dendrites

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We prove the following results. (i) Let X be a continuum such that X contains a dense arc component and let D be a dendrite with a closed set of branch points. If f:X → D is a Whitney preserving map, then f is a homeomorphism. (ii) For each dendrite D' with a dense set of branch points there exist a continuum X' containing a dense arc component and a Whitney preserving map f':X' → D' such that f' is not a homeomorphism.
