Indecomposable continua with one composant are $\textit{large}$ in the sense of being non-metrisable. We adapt the method of Smith $[18]$ to construct an example which is $\textit{small}$ in the sense of being separable.
We study the shore and non-block points of non-metric continua. We reduce the problem of showing a continuum to have non-block points to that of showing an indecomposable continuum to have non-block points. As a corollary we prove that…
For any composant $E \subset \mathbb H^*$ and corresponding near-coherence class $\mathscr E \subset \omega^*$ we prove the following are equivalent : (1) $E$ properly contains a dense semicontinuum. (2) Each countable subset of $E$ is…
We show that a plane continuum X is indecomposable iff X has a sequence (U_n) of not necessarily distinct complementary domains satisfying what we call the double-pass condition: If one draws an open arc A_n in each U_n whose ends limit…
We prove two theorems which allow one to recognize indecomposable subcontinua of closed surfaces without boundary. If $X$ is a subcontinuum of a closed surface $S$, we call the components of $S \setminus X$ the complementary domains of $X$.…
For a continuous flow on a compact metric space, the aim of this paper is to prove a Conley-type decomposition of the strong chain recurrent set. We first discuss in details the main properties of strong chain recurrent sets. We then…
In a separably connected space any two points are contained in a separable connected subset. We show a mechanism that takes a connected bounded metric space and produces a complete connected metric space whose separablewise components form…
We recall a characterization of hereditary indecomposability originally obtained by Krasinkiewicz and Minc, and show how it may be used to give unified constructions of various hereditarily indecomposable continua. In particular we answer a…
Assuming $\mathfrak b = \mathfrak c$ (or some weaker statement), we construct a compactification $\gamma\omega$ of $\omega$ such that its remainder $\gamma\omega\setminus\omega$ is nonseparable and carries a strictly positive measure.
We study the dynamics of the exponential maps $E_{\lambda}: \mathbb{C} \longrightarrow \mathbb{C}$ defined by $E_{\lambda}(z) = \lambda e^z$, where $\lambda > \frac{1}{e}$. We prove that for itineraries of a certain form, the set of all…
A subset $M$ of a continuum $X$ is called a \textit{meager composant} if $M$ is maximal with respect to the property that every two of its points are contained in a nowhere dense subcontinuum of $X$. Motivated by questions of Bellamy,…
Suppose $Y$ is a continuum, $x\in Y$, and $X$ is the union of all nowhere dense subcontinua of $Y$ containing $x$. Suppose further that there exists $y\in Y$ such that every connected subset of $X$ limiting to $y$ is dense in $X$. And,…
Knaster continua and solenoids are well-known examples of indecomposable continua whose composants (maximal arcwise-connected subsets) are one-to-one images of lines. We show that essentially all non-trivial one-to-one composant images of…
Abstract. We present a framework for the kinematics of a material body undergoing anelastic deformation. For such processes, the material structure of the body, as reflected by the geometric structure given to the set of body points,…
We study some new dynamical systems where the corresponding piecewise linear flow is neither time reversible nor measure preserving. We create a dissipative system by starting with a finite polysquare translation surface, and then modifying…
Using the classical technique of condensation of singularities, we prove that, for every zero-dimensional, complete separable metric space $G$, there exists a Suslinian, chainable metric continuum whose set of end points is homeomorphic to…
E.D. Tymchatyn constructed a hereditarily locally connected continuum which can be approximated by a sequence of mutually disjoint arcs. We show the example re-opens a conjecture of G.T. Seidler and H. Kato about continua which admit…
In this paper we construct an uncountable union of line segments $T$ which has full intersection with the sets $(\{ 0\} \times [0, 1]) \cup (\{ 1\} \times [0, 1])\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ but has null two-dimensional measure. Further results are…
We describe a probabilistic model involving iterated Brownian motion for constructing a random chainable continuum. We show that this random continuum is indecomposable.
Finding separable certificates of stability is important for tractability of analysis methods for large-scale networked systems. In this paper we consider the question of when a nonlinear system which is contracting, i.e. all solutions are…
