AbstractWe prove that the stable classes for continuous maps on compact metric spaces have measure zero with respect to any ergodic invariant measure with positive entropy. Then, every continuous map with positive topological entropy on a compact metric space has uncountably many stable classes. We also prove that every continuous map with positive topological entropy of a compact metric space cannot be Lyapunov stable on its recurrent set. For homeomorphisms on compact metric spaces we prove that the sets of heteroclinic points, and sinks in the canonical coordinates case, have zero measure with respect to any ergodic invariant measure with positive entropy. These results generalize those of Fedorenko and Smital [Maps of the interval Ljapunov stable on the set of nonwandering points. Acta Math. Univ. Comenian. (N.S.)60 (1) (1991), 11–14], Huang and Ye [Devaney’s chaos or 2-scattering implies Li–Yorke’s chaos.

Let H(C) be the group of homeomorphisms of the cantor set, C onto itself. Let p: C → M be a (continuous) map of C onto a compact metric space M, and let G(p, M) be {h ∈ H(C) | ∀x ∈ C, p(x) = ph(x)}. G(p, M) is a group. The map p: C → M is standard, if for each (x, y) ∈ C × C such that p(x) = p(y), there is a sequence and a sequence such that xn → x and hn(xn) → y. Standard maps and their associated groups characterize compact metric spaces in the sense that: Two such spaces, M and N, are homeomorphic if and only if, given p standard from C onto M, there is a standard q from C onto N for which G(p, M) = h−1G(q, N)h, for some h ∈ H(C). That is, two compact metric spaces are homeomorphic if and only if they determine, via standard maps, the same classes of conjugate subgroups of H(C).The present note exhibits two natural structure theorems relating algebraic and topological properties: First, if M = H ∪ K (H, K ≠ π) , compact metric, and p : C → M are given, then G(p, M) is isomorphic to a subdirect product of G(p, M)/S(p, H\K) and G(p, M)/S(p, K\H) where, generally, S(p, N) is the normal subgroup of homeomorphisms supported on p−1M . Second, given M and N compact metric and p : M → N continuous and onto, let M ≠ M − CID*α ≠ 0 , where {Dα}α ∈ A is the collection of non-degenerate preimages of points in N Then there is a standard p : C → M such that fp : C → N is standard and there is a homomorphism.

ABSTRACT We define uniform distribution in compact metric space with respect to the Buck’s measure density originated in [Buck, R. C.: The measure theoretic approach to density, Amer. J. Math. 68 (1946), 560-580]. Weyl’s criterion is derived. This leads to an existence result.

‘Decomposition Space Theory and the Bing Shrinking Criterion’ gives a proof of the central Bing shrinking criterion and then provides an introduction to the key notions of the field of decomposition space theory. The chapter begins by proving the Bing shrinking criterion, which characterizes when a given map between compact metric spaces is approximable by homeomorphisms. Next, it develops the elements of the theory of decomposition spaces. A key fact is that a decomposition space associated with an upper semi-continuous decomposition of a compact metric space is again a compact metric space. Decomposition spaces are key in the proof of the disc embedding theorem.

The relationship between components and movability for compacta (i.e. compact metric spaces) was described by Borsuk in [5]. Borsuk proved that if each component of a compactum X is movable, then so is X. More recently Segal and Spiez[19], motivated by results of Alonso Morón[1], have constructed a (non-compact) metric space X of small inductive dimension zero and such that X is non-movable. The construction of Segal and Spiez was based on the famous space of P. Roy [16]. On the other hand, K. Borsuk gave in [5] an example of a movable compactum with non-movable components. The structure of such compacta was studied by Oledzki in [15], where he obtained an interesting result stating that if X is a movable compactum then the set of movable components of X is dense in the space of components of X. Oledzki's result was later strengthened by Nowak[14], who proved that if all movable components of a movable compactum X are of deformation dimension at most n, then so are the non-movable components and the compactum X itself.

Let H(C) be the group of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set, C, onto itself. Let p: C → M be a map of C onto a compact metric space M, and let G(p, M) be is a group.The map p: C → M is standard, if for each (x, y) ∈ C × C such that p(x) = p(y), there is a sequence and a sequence such that xn → x and hn (xn) → y Standard maps and their associated groups characterize compact metric spaces in the sense that: Two such spaces, M and N, are homeomorphic if and only if, given p standard from C onto M, there is a standard q from C onto N for which G(p, M) = h−1G(q, N)h, for some h ∈ H(C) The present paper exhibits a structure theorem connecting these characterizing subgroups of H(C) and products of spaces: Let M1 and M2 be compact metric spaces. Then there are standard maps p: C → M1 × M2 and pi: C → Mi, i = 1, 2, such that G(p, M1 × M2) = G(p1, M1) ∩ G(p2, M2).

Consider the surjective, continuous mapf:X→Xand the continuous mapf¯of𝒦(X)induced byf, whereXis a compact metric space and𝒦(X)is the space of all nonempty compact subsets ofXendowed with the Hausdorff metric. In this paper, we give a short proof that iff¯is Li-Yoke sensitive, thenfis Li-Yorke sensitive. Furthermore, we give an example showing that Li-Yorke sensitivity offdoes not imply Li-Yorke sensitivity off¯.

Abstract We adapt the construction from [HAUSEUX, L.—LE ROUX, F.: Polynomial entropy of Brouwer homeomorphisms, arXiv:1712.01502 (2017)] to obtain an easy method for computing the polynomial entropy for a continuous map of a compact metric space with finitely many non-wandering points. We compute the maximal cardinality of a singular set of Morse negative gradient systems and apply this method to compute the polynomial entropy for Morse gradient systems on surfaces.

By a dynamical system we mean a compact metric space together with a continuous map . This article is devoted to study of invariant scrambled sets. A dynamical system is a periodically adsorbing system if there exists a fixed point and a periodic point such that and are dense in . We show that every topological weakly mixing and periodically adsorbing system contains an invariant and dense Mycielski scrambled set for some , where has no isolated points. A subset is a Myceilski set if it is a countable union of Cantor sets.

AbstractIn a previous paper—[17]—we characterized strong measure zero sets of reals in terms of a Ramseyan partition relation on certain subspaces of the Alexandroff duplicate of the unit interval. This framework gave only indirect access to the relevant sets of real numbers. We now work more directly with the sets in question, and since it costs little in additional technicalities, we consider the more general context of metric spaces and prove:1. If a metric space has a covering property of Hurewicz and has strong measure zero, then its product with any strong measure zero metric space is a strong measure zero metric space (Theorem 1 and Lemma 3).2. A subspace X of a σ-compact metric space Y has strong measure zero if, and only if, a certain Ramseyan partition relation holds for Y (Theorem 9).3. A subspace X of a σ-compact metric space Y has strong measure zero in all finite powers if, and only if, a certain Ramseyan partition relation holds for Y (Theorem 12).Then 2 and 3 yield characterizations of strong measure zeroness for σ-totally bounded metric spaces in terms of Ramseyan theorems.
