The hyperspace ω(f) when f is a transitive dendrite mapping

Let $X$ be a compact metric space. By $2^X$ we denote the hyperspace of all closed and non-empty subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric. Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous function. In this paper we study some topological properties of the hyperspace $ω(f)$, the collection of all omega limits sets $ω(x,f)$ with $x\in X$. We prove the following: $i)$ If $X$ has no isolated points, then, for every continuous function $f:X\to X$, $int_{2^X}(ω(f))=\emptyset$. $ii)$ If $X$ is a dendrite for which every arc contains a free arc and $f:X\to X$ is transitive, then the hyperspace $ω(f)$ is totally disconnected. $iii)$ Let $D_\infty$ be the Wazewski's universal dendrite. Then there exists a transitive continuous function $f:D_\infty\to D_\infty$ for which the hyperspace $ω(f)$ contains an arc; hence, $ω(f)$ is not totally disconnected.

The hyperspace of non-cut subcontinua of graphs and dendrites

Given a continuum $X$, let $C(X)$ denote the hyperspace of all subcontinua of $X$. In this paper we study the Vietoris hyperspace $NC^{*}(X)=\{ A \in C(X):X\setminus A\text{ is connected}\}$ when $X$ is a finite graph or a dendrite; in particular, we give conditions under which $NC^{*}(X)$ is compact, connected, locally connected or totally disconnected. Also, we prove that if $X$ is a dendrite and the set of endpoints of $X$ is dense, then $NC^{*}(X)$ is homeomorphic to the Baire space of irrational numbers.

Diagonals separating the square of a continuum

A metric continuum $X$ is indecomposable if it cannot be put as the union of two of its proper subcontinua. A subset $R$ of $X$ is said to be continuumwise connected provided that for each pair of points $p,q\in R$, there exists a subcontinuum $M$ of $X$ such that $\{p,q\}\subset M\subset R$. Let $X^{2}$ denote the Cartesian square of $X$ and $Δ$ the diagonal of $X^{2}$. In \cite{ka} it was asked if for a continuum $X$, distinct from the arc, $X^{2}\setminus Δ$ is continuumwise connected if and only if $X$ is decomposable. In this paper we show that no implication in this question holds. For the proof of the non-necessity, we use the dynamic properties of a suitable homeomorphism of the Cantor set onto itself to construct an appropriate indecomposable continuum $X$.
