Download or read book Continuous Images of Arcs and Inverse Limit Methods written by Jacek Nikiel and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1993 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuous images of ordered continua are investigated. The paper gives various properties of their monotone images and inverse limits of their inverse systems (or sequences) with monotone bonding surjections. Some factorization theorems are provided. Special attention is given to one-dimensional spaces which are continuous images of arcs and, among them, various classes of rim-finite continua. The methods of proofs include cyclic element theory, T-set approximations and null-family decompositions. The paper brings also new properties of cyclic elements and T-sets in locally connected continua, in general.
