A space is called minimal if it admits a minimal continuous selfmap. We give examples of metrizable continua $X$ admitting both minimal homeomorphisms and minimal noninvertible maps, whose squares $X\times X$ are not minimal, i.e., they…

The following well known open problem is answered in the negative: Given two compact spaces $X$ and $Y$ that admit minimal homeomorphisms, must the Cartesian product $X\times Y$ admit a minimal homeomorphism as well? A key element of our…

Let $M$ be a compact manifold of dimension at least 2. If $M$ admits a minimal homeomorphism then $M$ admits a minimal noninvertible map.

A compact space $X$ is said to be minimal if there exists a map $f:X\to X$ such that the forward orbit of any point is dense in $X$. We consider rigid minimal spaces, motivated by recent results of Downarowicz, Snoha, and Tywoniuk [J. Dyn.…

It is known that if a compact metric space X admits a minimal expansive homeomorphism then X is totally disconnected. In this note we give a short proof of this result and we analyze its extension to expansive flows.

We provide examples of nonseparable compact spaces with the property that any continuous image which is homeomorphic to a finite product of spaces has a maximal prescribed number of nonseparable factors.

We deal with topological spaces homeomorphic to their respective squares. Primarily, we investigate the existence of large families of such spaces in some subclasses of compact metrizable spaces. As our main result we show that there is a…

A compact space $Y$ is called homeo-product-minimal if given any minimal system $(X,T)$, it admits a homeomorphism $S:Y\to Y$, such that the product system $(X\times Y,T\times S)$ is minimal. We show that a large class of cofrontiers is…

Given a self-map of a compact metric space $X$, we study periodic points of the map induced on the hyperspace of closed subsets of $X$. We give some necessary conditions on admissible sets of periods for these maps. Seemingly unrelated to…

In this paper, we prove first that the space of minimal sets of any homeomorphisms $f:X\to X$ of a regular curve $X$ is closed in the hyperspace $2^X$ of closed subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric, and the non-wandering set…

We shall prove that if X, Y are compact metrizable spaces of positive dimension and h: X x Y --> X is a continuous map with zero-dimensional fibers then X contains a non-trivial continuum without one-dimensional subsets; in particular X is…

There are two main subjects in this paper. 1) For a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ we study the topological entropy of its "functional envelopes" (the action of $T$ by left composition on the space of all continuous self-maps or on…

For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…

In a recent paper \cite{T} the fact that a class of locally compact metric spaces $X$, among which are Euclidean spaces, are not homemorphic to their punctured version $X\men\{p\}$, was given an interesting new proof which does not use…

In this paper we develop a technique of constructing uni- formly continuous maps between function spaces Cp(X) endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that if a space X is compact metrizable and strongly countable-dimensional, then…

Let X be a h-homogeneous zero-dimensional compact Hausdorff space, i.e. X is a Stone dual of a homogeneous Boolean algebra. It is shown that the universal minimal space M(G) of the topological group G=Homeo(X), is the space of maximal…

The Lefschetz fixed point theorem provides a powerful obstruction to the existence of minimal homeomorphisms on well-behaved spaces such as finite CW-complexes. We show that these obstructions do not hold for more general spaces. More…

For a metrizable space $X$ of density $\kappa$, let $PM(X)$ be the space of continuous bounded pseudometrics on $X$ endowed with the uniform convergence topology. In this paper, its topology shall be classified as follows: (i) If $X$ is…

For metrizable spaces we replace the notion of almost periodic homeomorphism with a similar notion and verify that the usual characterizations of almost periodic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces are valid for all metrizable spaces.

Examples are given of tent maps $T$ for which there exist non-trivial sets $B \subset [0,1]$ such that $T:B \to B$ is a homeomorphism.
