On hyperspaces of knots and planar simple closed curves

We consider the Vietoris hyperspaces $\mathcal S(\mathbb R^n)$ of simple closed curves in $\mathbb R^n$, $n=2,3$, and their subspaces $\mathcal S_P(\mathbb R^2)$ of planar simple closed polygons, $\mathcal K_P$ of polygonal knots, and $\mathcal K_T$ of tame knots. We prove that all the hyperspaces are strongly locally contractible, arcwise connected, infinite-dimensional Cantor manifolds, and $\mathcal S(\mathbb R^2)$ and $\mathcal K_T$ are strongly infinite-dimensional Cantor manifolds. Moreover, $\mathcal S_P(\mathbb R^2)$ and $\mathcal K_P$ are $σ$-compact, strongly countable-dimensional absolute neighborhood retracts.

Hyperspaces of countable compacta

Hyperspaces $\mathcal H(X)$ of all countable compact subsets of a metric space $X$ and $\mathcal A_n(X)$ of infinite compact subsets which have at most $n$ ($n\in\mathbb N$), or finitely many ($n=ω$) or countably many ($n=ω+1$) accumulation points are studied. By descriptive set-theoretical methods, we fully characterize them for 0-dimensional, dense-in-itself, Polish spaces and partially for $σ$-compact spaces $X$. Using the theory of absorbing sets, we get characterizations of $\mathcal H(X)$, $\mathcal A_ω(X)$ and $\mathcal A_{ω+1}(X)$ for nondegenerate connected, locally connected Polish spaces $X$ which are either locally compact or nowhere locally compact. For every $n\in\mathbb N$, we show that if $X$ is an interval or a simple closed curve, $\mathcal A_n(X)$ is homeomorphic to the linear space $c_{0}=\{(x_{i}) \in\mathbb R^ω: \lim x_{i}=0\}$ with the product topology; if $X$ is a Peano continuum and a point $p\in X$ is of order $\ge 2$, then the hyperspace $\mathcal A_1(X,\{p\})$ of all compacta with exactly one accumulation point $p$ also is homeomorphic to $c_{0}$.

Chain recurrent sets of generic mappings on compact spaces

Let 0-CR denote the class of all metric compacta X such that the set of maps $f:X\to X$ with 0-dimensional sets CR(f) of chain recurrent points is a dense $G_δ$-subset of the mapping space C(X,X) (with the uniform convergence). We prove, among others, that countable products of polyhedra or locally connected curves belong to 0-CR. Compacta that admit, for each $ε>0$, an $ε$-retraction onto a subspace from 0-CR belong to 0-CR themselves. Perfect ANR-compacta or n-dimensional $LC^{n-1}$-compacta have perfect CR(f) for a generic self-map f. In the cases of polyhedra, compact Hilbert cube manifolds, local dendrites and their finite products, a generic f has CR(f) being a Cantor set and the set of periodic points of f of arbitrarily large periods is dense in CR(f). The results extend some known facts about CR(f) of generic self-maps f on PL-manifolds.
