AbstractAssumeGis a group definable in a modelMof a stable theoryT. We prove that the semigroupSG(M) of completeG-types overMis an inverse limit of some semigroups type-definable inMeq. We prove that the maximal subgroups ofSG(M) are inverse limits of some definable quotients of subgroups ofG. We consider the powers of types in the semigroupSG(M) and prove that in a way every type inSG(M) is profinitely many steps away from a type in a subgroup ofSG(M).

An inverse limit of finite groups has been called in the literature a pro-finite group and we have extensive studies of profinite groups from the cohomological point of view by J. P. Serre. The general theory of non-abelian modules has not yet been developed and therefore we consider a generalization of profinite abelian groups. We study inverse systems of discrete finite length R-modules. Profinite modules are inverse limits of discrete finite length R-modules with the inverse limit topology.

AbstractWe study inverse limits of monounary algebras. All monounary algebras A such that A can arise from A only by an inverse limit construction are described. We deal with an existence of an inverse limit. Some inverse limit closed classes are described. The paper ends with two problems.

The following lemma, which appears as Lemma 4 in [5], was used to determine certain multicoherence properties of inverse limits of continua.Lemma. Let X denote the inverse limit of an inverse system {Xλ, fλμ, Λ} of compact Hausdorff spaces Xλ. If Xλ has no more than k components (where k < ∞ is fixed) for each λ ∊ Λ, then X has no more than k components.In this paper we give a set theoretic analogue of this lemma and an extension which was suggested to the author by Professor F. W. Lawvere. An application to inverse limits of finite groups is then given.

Set-valued functions from an interval into the closed subsets of an interval arise in various areas of science and mathematical modeling. Research has shown that the dynamics of a single-valued function on a compact space are closely linked to the dynamics of the shift map on the inverse limit with the function as the sole bonding map. For example, it has been shown that with Devaney’s definition of chaos the bonding function is chaotic if and only if the shift map is chaotic. One reason for caring about this connection is that the shift map is a homeomorphism on the inverse limit, and therefore the topological structure of the inverse-limit space must reflect in its richness the dynamics of the shift map. In the set-valued case there may not be a natural definition for chaos since there is not a single well-defined orbit for each point. However, the shift map is a continuous single-valued function so it together with the inverse-limit space form a dynamical system which can be chaotic in any of the usual senses. For the set-valued case we demonstrate with theorems and examples rich topological structure in the inverse limit when the shift map is chaotic (on certain invariant sets). We then connect that chaos to a property of the set-valued function that is a natural generalization of an important chaos producing property of continuous functions.

AbstractWe explore the cardinality of generalised inverse limits. Among other things, we show that, for any $n\in \{&#x2135;_{0},c,1,2,3,\dots \}$, there is an upper semicontinuous function with the inverse limit having exactly $n$ points. We also prove that if $f$ is an upper semicontinuous function whose graph is a continuum, then the cardinality of the corresponding inverse limit is either 1, $&#x2135;_{0}$ or $c$. This generalises the recent result of I. Banič and J. Kennedy, which claims that the same is true in the case where the graph is an arc.

Abstract.We will show that the inverse limit of finite rank free groups with surjective connecting homomorphism is isomorphic either to a finite rank free group or to a fixed universal group. In other words, any inverse system of finite rank free groups which is not equivalent to an eventually constant system has the universal group as its limit. This universal inverse limit is naturally isomorphic to the first shape group of the Hawaiian earring. We also give an example of a homomorphic image of the Hawaiian earring group which lies in the inverse limit of free groups but is neither a free group nor isomorphic to the Hawaiian earring group.

There are two well-known methods to build up algebras from given algebras, the direct and inverse limits, and a systematic account of these constructions may be found in [2]. It is known that every algebra can be represented as a direct limit of finitely generated algebras although in some cases the representation is trivial. Furthermore, Haimo [3] has established a certain inverse limit representation for the class of all infinite Boolean algebras which generalises, in actual fact, to the class of all infinite lattices with 1. The purpose of this note is to exhibit a certain nontrivial inverse limit representation which is peculiar to the class of infinite, complete Boolean algebras.

AbstractTo any automorphism,$\alpha $, of a totally disconnected, locally compact group,$G$, there is associated a compact,$\alpha $-stable subgroup of$G$, here called thenubof$\alpha $, on which the action of$\alpha $is ergodic. Ergodic actions of automorphisms of compact groups have been studied extensively in topological dynamics and results obtained transfer, via the nub, to the study of automorphisms of general locally compact groups. A new proof that the contraction group of$\alpha $is dense in the nub is given, but it is seen that the two-sided contraction group need not be dense. It is also shown that each pair$(G, \alpha )$, with$G$compact and$\alpha $ergodic, is an inverse limit of pairs that have ‘finite depth’ and that analogues of the Schreier refinement and Jordan–Hölder theorems hold for pairs with finite depth.

<p>In this paper, we describe the periodic points of automorphisms of a one dimensional solenoid, considering it as the inverse limit, lim←k (S 1 , γk) of a sequence (γk) of maps on the circle S 1 . The periodic points are discussed for a class of automorphisms on some higher dimensional solenoids also.</p>

<p>It has been shown by S. Mardešić that if a compact metrizable space X has dim X ≥ 1 and X is the inverse limit of an inverse sequence of compact triangulated polyhedra with simplicial bonding maps, then X must contain an arc.  We are going  to prove that  if X = (|K<sub>a</sub>|,p<sup>b</sup><sub>a</sub>,(A,)<a href="http://www.codecogs.com/eqnedit.php?latex=\preceq" target="_blank"><img title="\preceq" src="http://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\preceq" alt="" /></a>)is an inverse system in set theory of triangulated polyhedra|K<sub>a</sub>|with simplicial  bonding  functions p<sup>b</sup><sub>a</sub> and X = lim X,  then  there  exists  a uniquely determined sub-inverse system X<sub>X</sub>= (|L<sub>a</sub>|, p<sup>b</sup><sub>a</sub>|L<sub>b</sub>|,(A,<a href="http://www.codecogs.com/eqnedit.php?latex=\preceq" target="_blank"><img title="\preceq" src="http://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\preceq" alt="" /></a>)) of X where for each a, L<sub>a</sub> is a subcomplex of K<sub>a</sub>, each p<sup>b</sup><sub>a</sub>|L<sub>b</sub>|:|L<sub>b</sub>| → |L<sub>a</sub>| is  surjective,  and lim X<sub>X</sub> = X. We shall use this to generalize the Mardešić result by characterizing when the inverse limit of an inverse sequence of triangulated polyhedra with simplicial bonding maps must contain a topological n-cell and do the same in the case of an inverse system of finite triangulated polyhedra with simplicial bonding maps. We shall also characterize when the inverse limit of an inverse sequence of triangulated polyhedra with simplicial bonding maps must contain an embedded copy of the Hilbert cube. In each of the above settings, all the polyhedra have the weak topology or all have the metric topology(these topologies being identical when the polyhedra are finite).</p>
