A universal property of C 0 -semigroups

Gerd Herzog, Christoph Schmoeger (2009)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let T : [ 0 , ) L ( E ) be a C 0 -semigroup with unbounded generator A : D ( A ) E . We prove that ( T ( t ) x - x ) / t has generically a very irregular behaviour for x D ( A ) as t 0 + .

A weakly chainable uniquely arcwise connected continuum without the fixed point property

Mirosław Sobolewski (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A continuum is a metric compact connected space. A continuum is chainable if it is an inverse limit of arcs. A continuum is weakly chainable if it is a continuous image of a chainable continuum. A space X is uniquely arcwise connected if any two points in X are the endpoints of a unique arc in X. D. P. Bellamy asked whether if X is a weakly chainable uniquely arcwise connected continuum then every mapping f: X → X has a fixed point. We give a counterexample.

AANR spaces and absolute retracts for tree-like continua

Janusz Jerzy Charatonik, Janusz R. Prajs (2005)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Continua that are approximative absolute neighborhood retracts (AANR’s) are characterized as absolute terminal retracts, i.e., retracts of continua in which they are embedded as terminal subcontinua. This implies that any AANR continuum has a dense arc component, and that any ANR continuum is an absolute terminal retract. It is proved that each absolute retract for any of the classes of: tree-like continua, λ -dendroids, dendroids, arc-like continua and arc-like λ -dendroids is an approximative absolute...

Abelian pro-countable groups and orbit equivalence relations

Maciej Malicki (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study a class of abelian groups that can be defined as Polish pro-countable groups, as non-archimedean groups with a compatible two-sided invariant metric or as quasi-countable groups, i.e., closed subdirect products of countable discrete groups, endowed with the product topology. We show that for every non-locally compact, abelian quasi-countable group G there exists a closed L ≤ G and a closed, non-locally compact K ≤ G/L which is a direct product of discrete countable groups....
