Weight and metrizability of inverses under hereditarily irreducible mappings
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main purpose of this paper is to study the weight under hereditarily irreducible mappings between continua. The main result states that if f : X → Y is an hereditarily irreducible and surjective mapping of a D-continuum X, then w(X) = w(Y ).

Fixed 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...
متن کاملHereditarily Weakly Confluent Mappings onto S
Results are obtained about the existence and behavior of hereditarily weakly confluent maps of continua onto the unit circle S1. A simple and useful necessary and sufficient condition is given for a map of a continuum, X, onto S1 to be hereditarily weakly confluent (HWC). It is shown that when X is arcwise connected, an HWC map of X onto S1 is monotone with arcwise connected fibers. A number of...
متن کاملReduction of Open Mappings
In 1936 G. T. Whyburn [8] defined an irreducible mapping to be a mapping/, of a compact metric continuum A onto B, such that no proper sub-continuum of A maps onto B under/. Similarly, assuming A to be only compact and metric, he defined / to be strongly irreducible provided that no closed proper subset of A maps onto B. J. Rozanska [7] independently defined this second type of mapping in 1937....
متن کاملMappings of Terminal Continua
Various kinds of nonseparating subcontinua were studied by a number of authors, see, for example, the expository paper [2], where a large amount of information on this subject is given. In the topological literature, or in continuum theory (to be more precise), the term “terminal,” when applied either to subcontinua of a given continuum or to points, and the same name “terminal” was assigned to...
متن کاملOn Inverses of -convex Mappings
In the first part of this paper, we prove that in a sense the class of bi-Lipschitz δ-convex mappings, whose inverses are locally δ-convex, is stable under finite-dimensional δ-convex perturbations. In the second part, we construct two δ-convex mappings from l1 onto l1, which are both bi-Lipschitz and their inverses are nowhere locally δ-convex. The second mapping, whose construction is more co...
