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...

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.

A continuum X such that C ( X ) is not continuously homogeneous

Alejandro Illanes (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A metric continuum X is said to be continuously homogeneous provided that for every two points p , q X there exists a continuous surjective function f : X X such that f ( p ) = q . Answering a question by W.J. Charatonik and Z. Garncarek, in this paper we show a continuum X such that the hyperspace of subcontinua of X , C ( X ) , is not continuously homogeneous.

Extending generalized Whitney maps

Ivan Lončar (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

For metrizable continua, there exists the well-known notion of a Whitney map. If X is a nonempty, compact, and metric space, then any Whitney map for any closed subset of 2 X can be extended to a Whitney map for 2 X [3, 16.10 Theorem]. The main purpose of this paper is to prove some generalizations of this theorem.

Global continuum of positive solutions for discrete p -Laplacian eigenvalue problems

Dingyong Bai, Yuming Chen (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We discuss the discrete p -Laplacian eigenvalue problem, Δ ( φ p ( Δ u ( k - 1 ) ) ) + λ a ( k ) g ( u ( k ) ) = 0 , k { 1 , 2 , ... , T } , u ( 0 ) = u ( T + 1 ) = 0 , where T > 1 is a given positive integer and φ p ( x ) : = | x | p - 2 x , p > 1 . First, the existence of an unbounded continuum 𝒞 of positive solutions emanating from ( λ , u ) = ( 0 , 0 ) is shown under suitable conditions on the nonlinearity. Then, under an additional condition, it is shown that the positive solution is unique for any λ > 0 and all solutions are ordered. Thus the continuum 𝒞 is a monotone continuous curve globally defined for all λ > 0 .

Making holes in the cone, suspension and hyperspaces of some continua

José G. Anaya, Enrique Castañeda-Alvarado, Alejandro Fuentes-Montes de Oca, Fernando Orozco-Zitli (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A connected topological space Z is unicoherent provided that if Z = A B where A and B are closed connected subsets of Z , then A B is connected. Let Z be a unicoherent space, we say that z Z makes a hole in Z if Z - { z } is not unicoherent. In this work the elements that make a hole to the cone and the suspension of a metric space are characterized. We apply this to give the classification of the elements of hyperspaces of some continua that make them hole.

On the hyperspace C n ( X ) / C n K ( X )

José G. Anaya, Enrique Castañeda-Alvarado, José A. Martínez-Cortez (2021)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let X be a continuum and n a positive integer. Let C n ( X ) be the hyperspace of all nonempty closed subsets of X with at most n components, endowed with the Hausdorff metric. For K compact subset of X , define the hyperspace C n K ( X ) = { A C n ( X ) : K A } . In this paper, we consider the hyperspace C K n ( X ) = C n ( X ) / C n K ( X ) , which can be a tool to study the space C n ( X ) . We study this hyperspace in the class of finite graphs and in general, we prove some properties such as: aposyndesis, local connectedness, arcwise disconnectedness, and contractibility. ...

Property of being semi-Kelley for the cartesian products and hyperspaces

Enrique Castañeda-Alvarado, Ivon Vidal-Escobar (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper we construct a Kelley continuum X such that X × [ 0 , 1 ] is not semi-Kelley, this answers a question posed by J.J. Charatonik and W.J. Charatonik in A weaker form of the property of Kelley, Topology Proc. 23 (1998), 69–99. In addition, we show that the hyperspace C ( X ) is not semi- Kelley. Further we show that small Whitney levels in C ( X ) are not semi-Kelley, answering a question posed by A. Illanes in Problemas propuestos para el taller de Teoría de continuos y sus hiperespacios, Queretaro,...

Another ⋄-like principle

Michael Hrušák (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

A new ⋄-like principle consistent with the negation of the Continuum Hypothesis is introduced and studied. It is shown that ¬ is consistent with CH and that in many models of = ω₁ the principle holds. As implies that there is a MAD family of size ℵ₁ this provides a partial answer to a question of J. Roitman who asked whether = ω₁ implies = ω₁. It is proved that holds in any model obtained by adding a single Laver real, answering a question of J. Brendle who asked whether = ω₁...
