Homeomorphisms of composants of Knaster continua

Sonja Štimac (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The Knaster continuum K p is defined as the inverse limit of the pth degree tent map. On every composant of the Knaster continuum we introduce an order and we consider some special points of the composant. These are used to describe the structure of the composants. We then prove that, for any integer p ≥ 2, all composants of K p having no endpoints are homeomorphic. This generalizes Bandt’s result which concerns the case p = 2.

Decompositions of the plane and the size of the continuum

Ramiro de la Vega (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a triple ⟨E₀,E₁,E₂⟩ of equivalence relations on ℝ² and investigate the possibility of decomposing the plane into three sets ℝ² = S₀ ∪ S₁ ∪ S₂ in such a way that each S i intersects each E i -class in finitely many points. Many results in the literature, starting with a famous theorem of Sierpiński, show that for certain triples the existence of such a decomposition is equivalent to the continuum hypothesis. We give a characterization in ZFC of the triples for which the decomposition...

Characterizing metric spaces whose hyperspaces are homeomorphic to ℓ₂

T. Banakh, R. Voytsitskyy (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is shown that the hyperspace C l d H ( X ) (resp. B d d H ( X ) ) of non-empty closed (resp. closed and bounded) subsets of a metric space (X,d) is homeomorphic to ℓ₂ if and only if the completion X̅ of X is connected and locally connected, X is topologically complete and nowhere locally compact, and each subset (resp. each bounded subset) of X is totally bounded.

Induced almost continuous functions on hyperspaces

Alejandro Illanes (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a metric continuum X, let C(X) (resp., 2 X ) be the hyperspace of subcontinua (resp., nonempty closed subsets) of X. Let f: X → Y be an almost continuous function. Let C(f): C(X) → C(Y) and 2 f : 2 X 2 Y be the induced functions given by C ( f ) ( A ) = c l Y ( f ( A ) ) and 2 f ( A ) = c l Y ( f ( A ) ) . In this paper, we prove that: • If 2 f is almost continuous, then f is continuous. • If C(f) is almost continuous and X is locally connected, then f is continuous. • If X is not locally connected, then there exists an almost continuous function f: X → [0,1]...

A note on the paper ``Smoothness and the property of Kelley''

Gerardo Acosta, Álgebra Aguilar-Martínez (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let X be a continuum. In Proposition 31 of J.J. Charatonik and W.J. Charatonik, , Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. (2000), no. 1, 123–132, it is claimed that L ( X ) = p X S ( p ) , where L ( X ) is the set of points at which X is locally connected and, for p X , a S ( p ) if and only if X is smooth at p with respect to a . In this paper we show that such equality is incorrect and that the correct equality is P ( X ) = p X S ( p ) , where P ( X ) is the set of points at which X is connected im kleinen. We also use the correct equality to obtain some...

Disconnections of plane continua

Bajguz, W.

Similarity:

The paper deals with locally connected continua X in the Euclidean plane. Theorem 1 asserts that there exists a simple closed curve in X that separates two given points x , y of X if there is a subset L of X (a point or an arc) with this property. In Theorem 2 the two points x , y are replaced by two closed and connected disjoint subsets A , B . Again – under some additional preconditions – the existence of a simple closed curve disconnecting A and B is stated.

On Dimensionsgrad, resolutions, and chainable continua

Michael G. Charalambous, Jerzy Krzempek (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For each natural number n ≥ 1 and each pair of ordinals α,β with n ≤ α ≤ β ≤ ω(⁺), where ω(⁺) is the first ordinal of cardinality ⁺, we construct a continuum S n , α , β such that (a) d i m S n , α , β = n ; (b) t r D g S n , α , β = t r D g o S n , α , β = α ; (c) t r i n d S n , α , β = t r I n d S n , α , β = β ; (d) if β < ω(⁺), then S n , α , β is separable and first countable; (e) if n = 1, then S n , α , β can be made chainable or hereditarily decomposable; (f) if α = β < ω(⁺), then S n , α , β can be made hereditarily indecomposable; (g) if n = 1 and α = β < ω(⁺), then S n , α , β can be made chainable and hereditarily indecomposable.

Hereditarily indecomposable inverse limits of graphs

K. Kawamura, H. M. Tuncali, E. D. Tymchatyn (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove the following theorem: Let G be a compact connected graph and let f: G → G be a piecewise linear surjection which satisfies the following condition: for each nondegenerate subcontinuum A of G, there is a positive integer n such that fⁿ(A) = G. Then, for each ε > 0, there is a map f ε : G G which is ε-close to f such that the inverse limit ( G , f ε ) is hereditarily indecomposable.

On the connectivity of finite subset spaces

Jacob Mostovoy, Rustam Sadykov (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that the space e x p k S m + 1 of nonempty subsets of cardinality at most k in a bouquet of m+1-dimensional spheres is (m+k-2)-connected. This, as shown by Tuffley, implies that the space e x p k X is (m+k-2)-connected for any m-connected cell complex X.

A hit-and-miss topology for 2 X , Cₙ(X) and Fₙ(X)

Benjamín Espinoza, Verónica Martínez-de-la-Vega, Jorge M. Martínez-Montejano (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A hit-and-miss topology ( τ H M ) is defined for the hyperspaces 2 X , Cₙ(X) and Fₙ(X) of a continuum X. We study the relationship between τ H M and the Vietoris topology and we find conditions on X for which these topologies are equivalent.
