Abstract

This study defines an orbitwise expansive point (OE) as a point, such as xx in a metric space (X,ρ)(X,\rho), if there is a number d>0d>0 such that the orbits of a few points inside an arbitrary open sphere will maintain a distance greater than dd from the corresponding points of the orbit of xx at least once. The point xx is referred to as the relatively orbitwise expansive point (ROE) in the previously described scenario if dd is replaced with the radius of the open sphere whose orbit is investigated and whose centre is xx. %The function generating the orbit is considered to be continuous. We also define OE (ROE) set. We prove that arbitrary union of OE (ROE) set is again OE (ROE) set and every limit point of an OE set is an OE point. We show that, rather than the other way around, Utz's expansive map or Kato's CW-expansive map implies OE (ROE) map. We utilise the concept of OE(ROE) to analyse a time-varying dynamical system and investigate its relevance to certain traits associated with expansiveness.
