HEREDITARILY INDECOMPOSABLE HAUSDORFF CONTINUA HAVE UNIQUE HYPERSPACES 2XAND Cn(X)

چکیده
Let X be a Hausdorff continuum (a compact connected Hausdorff space). Let 2X (respectively, Cn(X)) denote the hyperspace of nonempty closed subsets of X (respectively, nonempty closed subsets of X with at most n components), with the Vietoris topology. We prove that if X is hereditarily indecomposable, Y is a Hausdorff continuum and 2X (respectively Cn(X)) is homeomorphic to 2Y (respectively, Cn(Y )), then X is homeomorphic to Y .

Kernels of Hereditarily Unicoherent Continua and Absolute Retracts
For a hereditarily unicoherent continuum X, its kernel means the common part of all subcontinua of X that intersect all arc components of X. This concept naturally appears when absolute retracts for the class of hereditarily unicoherent continua are studied. Let Y be such an absolute retract. Among other results, we prove that (a) Y is indecomposable if and only if it is identical with its kern...
متن کاملSemi-terminal Continua in Kelley Spaces
A continuum K in a space X is said to be semi-terminal if at least one out of every two disjoint continua in X intersecting K is contained in K. Based on this concept, new structural results on Kelley continua are obtained. In particular, two decomposition theorems for Kelley continua are presented. One of these theorems is an improved version of the aposyndetic decomposition theorem for Kelley...
متن کاملContinua and the Co-elementary Hierarchy of Maps
The co-elementary hierarchy is a nested ordinal-indexed sequence of classes of mappings between compacta, with each successor level being defined inductively from the previous one using the topological ultracopower construction. The lowest level is the class of continuous surjections; and the next level up, the coexistential maps, is already a much more restricted class. Co-existential maps are...
متن کاملOn Local Connectedness of Absolute Retracts
One of the fundamental observations of theory of retracts says that any absolute retract for the class of all compacta is a locally connected continuum. However, when more restricted classes of spaces are considered, as for example hereditarily unicoherent continua, tree-like continua, dendroids, or hereditarily indecomposable continua, this is not necessarily the case (see e.g., [6, Corollarie...
متن کاملFixed Point Property for Monotone Mappings of Hereditarily Stratified
A continuum means comp6lct, connected metric space. A hereditarily unicoherent and arcwise connected continuum is called a dendroid. It follows that it is hereditarily decomposable ([2], (47), p. 239). A hereditarily unicoherent and hereditarily decomposable continuum is said to be a A.-dendroid. Thus, every dendroid is a }.-dendroid and an arcwise connected A.-dendroid is a dendroid. Note that...
