Hereditarily indecomposable continua with exactly n autohomeomorphisms
The main goal of this paper is to construct, for every n,m ∈ ℕ, a hereditarily indecomposable continuum of dimension m which has exactly n autohomeomorphisms.

Hereditarily indecomposable inverse limits of graphs
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 which is ε-close to f such that the inverse limit is hereditarily indecomposable.

Hereditarily weakly confluent induced mappings are homeomorphisms
For a given mapping f between continua we consider the induced mappings between the corresponding hyperspaces of closed subsets or of subcontinua. It is shown that if either of the two induced mappings is hereditarily weakly confluent (or hereditarily confluent, or hereditarily monotone, or atomic), then f is a homeomorphism, and consequently so are both the induced mappings. Similar results are obtained for mappings between cones over the domain and over the range continua.

Homeomorphisms of composants of Knaster continua
The Knaster continuum is defined as the inverse limit of the pth degree tent map. On every composant of the Knaster continuum we introduce an order and we consider some special points of the composant. These are used to describe the structure of the composants. We then prove that, for any integer p ≥ 2, all composants of having no endpoints are homeomorphic. This generalizes Bandt’s result which concerns the case p = 2.
Homeomorphisms of inverse limit spaces of one-dimensional maps
We present a new technique for showing that inverse limit spaces of certain one-dimensional Markov maps are not homeomorphic. In particular, the inverse limit spaces for the three maps from the tent family having periodic kneading sequence of length five are not homeomorphic.

Homogeneity and rigidity in Erdös spaces
The classical Erdös spaces are obtained as the subspaces of real separable Hilbert space consisting of the points with all coordinates rational or all coordinates irrational, respectively. One can create variations by specifying in which set each coordinate is allowed to vary. We investigate the homogeneity of the resulting subspaces. Our two main results are: in case all coordinates are allowed to vary in the same set the subspace need not be homogeneous, and by specifying different sets for different...

Homotopically fixed arcs and the contractibility of dendroids
Homotopy properties of curves
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.

Homotopy types of one-dimensional Peano continua
Let X and Y be one-dimensional Peano continua. If the fundamental groups of X and Y are isomorphic, then X and Y are homotopy equivalent. Every homomorphism from the fundamental group of X to that of Y is a composition of a homomorphism induced from a continuous map and a base point change isomorphism.
Hurewicz-Serre theorem in extension theory
The paper is devoted to generalizations of the Cencelj-Dranishnikov theorems relating extension properties of nilpotent CW complexes to their homology groups. Here are the main results of the paper: Theorem 0.1. Let L be a nilpotent CW complex and F the homotopy fiber of the inclusion i of L into its infinite symmetric product SP(L). If X is a metrizable space such that for all k ≥ 1, then and for all k ≥ Theorem 0.2. Let X be a metrizable space such that dim(X) < ∞ or X ∈ ANR. Suppose...

Hyperspace selections avoiding points
We deal with a hyperspace selection problem in the setting of connected spaces. We present two solutions of this problem illustrating the difference between selections for the nonempty closed sets, and those for the at most two-point sets. In the first case, we obtain a characterisation of compact orderable spaces. In the latter case --- that of selections for at most two-point sets, the same selection property is equivalent to the existence of a ternary relation on the space, known as a cyclic...
