Mean dimension explosion of induced homeomorphisms
Abstract
Given $X$ a compact metric space and $T: X \to X$ a continuous map, the induced hyperspace map $T_\mathcal{K}$ acts on the hyperspace $\mathcal{K}(X)$ of closed and nonempty subsets of $X$, and on the continuum hyperspace $\mathcal{C}(X) \subset \mathcal{K}(X)$ of connected sets. This work studies the mean dimension explosion phenomenon: when the base system $T$ has zero topological entropy, but the mean dimension of the induced map $T_\mathcal{K}$ is infinite. In particular, this phenomenon occurs for Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms. Furthermore, for a circle homeomorphism $H$, the mean dimension explosion does not occur if and only if $H$ is conjugate to a rotation. For the metric mean dimension, a different result is obtained: we establish sufficient conditions for the induced hyperspace map to have zero or infinite metric mean dimension.
