Dynamics of commuting homeomorphisms of chainable continua

Christopher Mouron (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A chainable continuum, X, and homeomorphisms, p,q: X → X, are constructed with the following properties: (1) p ∘ q = q ∘ p, (2) p, q have simple dynamics, (3) p ∘ q is a positively continuum-wise fully expansive homeomorphism that has positive entropy and is chaotic in the sense of Devaney and in the sense of Li and Yorke.

On the entropy for group actions on the circle

Eduardo Jorquera (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that for a finitely generated group of C² circle diffeomorphisms, the entropy of the action equals the entropy of the restriction of the action to the non-wandering set.

On the directional entropy for ℤ²-actions on a Lebesgue space

B. Kamiński, K. Park (1999)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We define the concept of directional entropy for arbitrary 2 -actions on a Lebesgue space, we examine its basic properties and consider its behaviour in the class of product actions and rigid actions.

Entropy pairs of ℤ² and their directional properties

Kyewon Koh Park, Uijung Lee (2004)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Topological and metric entropy pairs of ℤ²-actions are defined and their properties are investigated, analogously to ℤ-actions. In particular, mixing properties are studied in connection with entropy pairs.

The entropy of algebraic actions of countable torsion-free abelian groups

Richard Miles (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the entropy of an action of a countable torsion-free abelian group G by continuous automorphisms of a compact abelian group X. A formula is obtained that expresses the entropy in terms of the Mahler measure of a greatest common divisor, complementing earlier work by Einsiedler, Lind, Schmidt and Ward. This leads to a uniform method for calculating entropy whenever G is free. In cases where these methods do not apply, a possible entropy formula is conjectured....

ω-Limit sets for triangular mappings

Victor Jiménez López, Jaroslav Smítal (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In 1992 Agronsky and Ceder proved that any finite collection of non-degenerate Peano continua in the unit square is an ω-limit set for a continuous map. We improve this result by showing that it is valid, with natural restrictions, for the triangular maps (x,y) ↦ (f(x),g(x,y)) of the square. For example, we show that a non-trivial Peano continuum C ⊂ I² is an orbit-enclosing ω-limit set of a triangular map if and only if it has a projection property. If C is a finite union of Peano continua...

1/2-Homogeneous hyperspace suspensions

Sergio Macías, Patricia Pellicer-Covarrubias (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We continue the study of 1/2-homogeneity of the hyperspace suspension of continua. We prove that if X is a decomposable continuum and its hyperspace suspension is 1/2-homogeneous, then X must be continuum chainable. We also characterize 1/2-homogeneity of the hyperspace suspension for several classes of continua, including: continua containing a free arc, atriodic and decomposable continua, and decomposable irreducible continua about a finite set.

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.
