Autohomeomorphisms of the finite powers of the double arrow

Abstract

Let A\mathbb{A} and S\mathbb{S} denote the double arrow of Alexandroff and the Sorgenfrey line, respectively. We show that any homeomorphism h:mAmAh:^m\mathbb{A}\to^m\mathbb{A} is locally (outside of a nowhere dense set) a product of monotone embeddings hi:JiAA(im)h_i:J_i\subseteq \mathbb{A}\to\mathbb{A} (i\in m) followed by a permutation of the coordinates. We also prove that the symmetric products Fm(A)\mathcal{F}_m(\mathbb{A}) are not homogeneous for any m2m\geq 2. This partially solves an open question of A. Arhangel'ski\v{i}. In contrast, we show that symmetric product F2(S)\mathcal{F}_2(\mathbb{S}) is homogeneous.
