The purpose of this paper is to prove: Theorem: Suppose M is a closed connected set containing more than one point such that if g is any connected subset of M, then M-g is connected. Under these conditions M is a simple closed curve. Theorem: If M is an unbounded closed connected set which remains connected upon the removal of any unbounded connected proper subset, then M is either an open curve, a ray of an open curve or a simple closed curve J plus OP, a ray of an open curve which...

Sierpinski has shown (Wacław Sierpiński Sur une condition pour qu'un continu soit une courbe jordanienne, Fundamenta Mathematicae I (1920), pp. 44-60) that in order that a closed and connected set of points M should be a continuous curve it is necessary and sufficient that, for every positive number ϵ, the connected point-set M should be the sum of a finite number of closed and connected point-sets each of diameter less than ϵ. It follows that, as applied to point-sets which are closed,...

The present paper has three main objects: 1. to study the analogy between ordinary two-dimensional space and a plane continuous curve; 2. to characterize and analyze the boundaries of the domains complementary to a plane continuous curve; 3. to give a new characterization of continuous curves suitable for any number of dimensions;
