چکیده

We give digital analogues of classical theorems of topology for continuous functions defined on spheres, for digital simple closed curves. In particular, we show the following: 1) A digital simple closed curve S of more than 4 points is not contractible, i.e., its identity map is not nullhomotopic in S ; 2) Let X and Y be digital simple closed curves, each symmetric with respect to the origin, such that 5 |> | Y (where | | Y is the number of points in Y ). Let Y X f  : be a digitally continuous antipodal map. Then f is not nullhomotopic in Y ; 3) Let S be a digital simple closed curve that is symmetric with respect to the origin. Let Z S f  : be a digitally continuous map. Then there is a pair of antipodes S x x   } , { such that 1 | ) ( ) ( |    x f x f .

On the pointfree counterpart of the local definition of classical continuous maps

The familiar classical result that a continuous map from a space $X$ to a space $Y$ can be defined by giving continuous maps $varphi_U: U to Y$ on each member $U$ of an open cover ${mathfrak C}$ of $X$ such that $varphi_Umid U cap V = varphi_V mid U cap V$ for all $U,V in {mathfrak C}$ was recently shown to have an exact analogue in pointfree topology, and the same was done for the familiar cla...

A Theorem on Interior Transformations*

In an earlier paperf it has been shown that if T(A) — B is a light interior transformation, that is, a continuous transformation mapping open sets into open sets and mapping no continuum into a single point, and if A is compact, then for every simple arc pq in B and any poeT~(p) there exists a simple arc poqo in A which maps topologically onto pq under T. In this paper the following extension t...

The Spans of Five Star-like Simple Closed Curves

Let X be a continuum, that is a compact, connected, nonempty metric space. The span of X is the least upper bound of the set of real numbers r which satisfy the following conditions: there exists a continuum, C, contained in X × X such that d(x, y) is larger than or equal to r for all (x, y) in C and p1(C) = p2(C), where p1, p2 are the usual projection maps. The following question has been aske...

Map Label Placement for Points and Curves

The label placement problem is one of the most important problems in geographic information systems, cartography, graph drawing and graphical interface design. In this paper, we consider the problem of labeling points and curves in maps drawn from digital data. In digital maps, a curve is represented as a set of points and consists of many small segments. The label for each curve must be placed...
