Concerning Dimension and Tree-likeness of Inverse Limits with Set-valued Functions

چکیده
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 spaces that have continua appended at each point of a closed set, however the conclusion of this theorem allows the possibility of an infinite dimensional inverse limit. In this paper we show that inverse limits with sequences of certain surjective upper semi-continuous continuum-valued bonding functions have dimension bounded by the dimensions of the factor spaces. One consequence of our investigation is that certain inverse limits on [0, 1] with upper semi-continuous continuum-valued functions are tree-like including those that are inverse limits on [0, 1] with a single interval-valued bonding function that has no flat spots.

Tree-likeness of Certain Inverse Limits with Set-valued Functions
Inverse limits with set-valued functions having graphs that are the union of mappings have attracted some attention over the past few years. In this paper we show that if the graph of a surjective set-valued function f : [0, 1] → 2[0,1] is the union of two mappings having only one point (x, x) in common such that x is not the image of any other point of the interval under f , then its inverse l...
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 کاملFuzzy number-valued fuzzy relation
It is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. Contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. Some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. Depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...

Suppose that X1, X2, X3, . . . is a sequence of continua and fi : Xi+1 → 2Xi is an upper semi-continuous set-valued function for each positive integer i; let Gn = {x ∈ ∏n+1 i=1 Xi | xi ∈ fi(xi+1) for 1 ≤ i ≤ n}. We show that if Gn is a chainable continuum for each n ∈ N, then the inverse limit lim ←− is chainable. We use this to show that two well-studied examples of inverse limits on [0, 1] wi...
متن کاملInverse Limits of Upper Semi-continuous Set Valued Functions
In this article we define the inverse limit of an inverse sequence (X1, f1), (X2, f2), (X3, f3), . . . where each Xi is a compact Hausdorff space and each fi is an upper semi-continuous function from Xi+1 into 2i . Conditions are given under which the inverse limit is a Hausdorff continuum and examples are given to illustrate the nature of these inverse limits.
