Topology Proceedings 36 (2010) pp. 353-373: Inverse Limits with Upper Semi-Continuous Bonding Functions: Problems and Some Partial Solutions

چکیده
By means of numerous examples we call attention to several problems in the theory of inverse limits with upper semi-continuous bonding functions. Along with the problems we present a few partial solutions. Most of the problems we discuss arise from the failure of certain theorems from the theory of inverse limits with mappings to carry over to the setting of inverse limits with set-valued functions.

Topology Proceedings 40 (2012) pp. 203-214: Concerning Nonconnected Inverse Limits with Upper Semi-Continuous Set-Valued Functions
In this paper we present a sequence f2, f3, f4, . . . of upper semi-continuous set-valued functions with the property that the graph of fn n is not connected but the graph of fk n is connected for 1 ≤ k < n. Thus, for each positive integer n, lim ←−n is not connected but the difficulty of detecting this fact increases with n.
متن کاملSome Structure Theorems for Inverse Limits with Set-valued Functions
We investigate inverse limits with set-valued bonding functions. We generalize theorems of W. T. Ingram and William S. Mahavier, and of Van Nall, on the connectedness of the inverse limit space. We establish a fixed point theorem and show that under certain conditions, inverse limits with set-valued bonding functions can be realized as ordinary inverse limits. We also obtain some results that a...
متن کاملConcerning Dimension and Tree-likeness of Inverse Limits with Set-valued Functions
From a theorem of Van Nall it is known that inverse limits with sequences of upper semi-continuous set-valued functions with 0-dimensional values have dimension bounded by the dimensions of the factor spaces. Information is also available about the dimension of inverse limits with sequences of upper semi-continuous continuum-valued bonding functions having graphs that are mappings on the factor...
متن کاملInverse Limits of Families of Set-valued Functions
In this paper we investigate inverse limits of two related parameterized families of upper semi-continuous set-valued functions. We include a theorem one consequence of which is that certain inverse limits with a single bonding function from one of these families are the closure of a topological ray (usually with indecomposable remainder). Also included is a theorem giving a new sufficient cond...
متن کاملOne-dimensional Inverse Limits with Set-valued Functions
In this paper we show that an inverse limit is 1-dimensional whenever the bonding functions are upper semi-continuous from [0, 1] into C([0, 1]) and dim(G(fi ◦ fi+1 ◦ · · · ◦ fj)) = 1 for all integers i and j, 1 ≤ i ≤ j. We apply this result to show that such an inverse limit is treelike and also to show that unions of certain finite collections of interval-valued upper semi-continuous function...
