On non-separable 0-dimensional metrizable spaces
Whyburn has proved that each open mapping defined on arc (a simple closed curve) is light. Charatonik and Omiljanowski have proved that each open mapping defined on a local dendrite is light. Theorem 3.8 is an extension of these results.
It is shown that for every numbers there is a strongly self-homeomorphic dendrite which is not pointwise self-homeomorphic. The set of all points at which the dendrite is pointwise self-homeomorphic is characterized. A general method of constructing a large family of dendrites with the same property is presented.
We study the famous examples of G. S. Young [7] and R. H. Bing [2]. We generalize and simplify a little their constructions. First we introduce Young spirals which play a basic role in all considerations. We give a construction of a Young spiral which does not have the fixed point property (see Section 5) . Then, using Young spirals, we define two classes of uniquely arcwise connected curves, called Young spaces and Bing spaces. These classes are analogous to the examples mentioned above. The definitions...
In the paper, some kind of independence between upper metric dimension and natural order of converging sequences is shown — for any sequence converging to zero there is a greater sequence with an arbitrary () upper dimension. On the other hand there is a relationship to summability of series — the set of elements of any positive summable series must have metric dimension less than or equal to .
