A fixed-point anomaly in the plane

Charles L. Hagopian, Janusz R. Prajs (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We define an unusual continuum M with the fixed-point property in the plane ℝ². There is a disk D in ℝ² such that M ∩ D is an arc and M ∪ D does not have the fixed-point property. This example answers a question of R. H. Bing. The continuum M is a countable union of arcs.

Non-separating subcontinua of planar continua

D. Daniel, C. Islas, R. Leonel, E. D. Tymchatyn (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We revisit an old question of Knaster by demonstrating that each non-degenerate plane hereditarily unicoherent continuum X contains a proper, non-degenerate subcontinuum which does not separate X.

Waraszkiewicz spirals revisited

Pavel Pyrih, Benjamin Vejnar (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study compactifications of a ray with remainder a simple closed curve. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a bijective (resp. surjective) mapping between two such continua. Using those conditions we present a simple proof of the existence of an uncountable family of plane continua no one of which can be continuously mapped onto any other (the first such family, so called Waraszkiewicz's spirals, was created by Z. Waraszkiewicz in the 1930's).

Homotopy properties of curves

Janusz Jerzy Charatonik, Alejandro Illanes (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Conditions are investigated that imply noncontractibility of curves. In particular, a plane noncontractible dendroid is constructed which contains no homotopically fixed subset. A new concept of a homotopically steady subset of a space is introduced and its connections with other related concepts are studied.
