A treelike continuum is a continuum whose every subcontinuum is unicoherent and whose nondegenerate subcontinua are arc-like. A map is strictly locally 1-to-1 if it is locally…
Dimension-one conjecture. Every co-existentially closed continuum has Lebesgue covering dimension one.
Let be a non-planar tree-like continuum, and let denote its deleted product with the involution exchanging the two factors. Tree-like continuum conjecture. There…
Non-density conjecture. The periodic homeomorphisms, and likewise the almost periodic or pointwise-periodic homeomorphisms, are not dense in .
Watson's conjecture. Such an example exists in , probably even a completely regular one, and its existence depends on hard finite combinatorics.
Let be the pseudoarc, the unique hereditarily indecomposable chainable continuum, and let be its homeomorphism group. Let denote the universal minimal compact…
Let be a non-degenerate compact metric space, and suppose that every midset of is homeomorphic to the -sphere . Higher-dimensional double midset conjecture.…
A continuum is a non-degenerate connected compact metric space. For a metric space, the double midset property (DMP) means that every pair of distinct points has a midset consistin…
Finitely generatedness conjecture. Any continuously homogeneous indecomposable planar continuum is finitely generated.
Conjecture on finitely generated continua. There is a large and quite natural class of continua that lack continuous homogeneity.
Charatonik's conjecture. The pseudo-circle might provide another counterexample to that equivalence.
Core decomposition equality. The core decomposition of satisfies
Euler characteristic conjecture. We conjecture that
Classification conjecture. If , then and are homeomorphic.
Let be the embedding from Proposition 3-tangled, let be the corresponding closed broken line, and set … Property 4 means that it is im…
Let denote the Griffiths double cone space and let denote the harmonic archipelago. For a pointed space , write for it…
The minimal decomposition conjecture. The point is non-coastal when treated as a point of each . This asserts the desired non-coastal behavior for every minimal decomposit…
Let be a continuum with no shore points, let , and let denote a decomposition into subcontinua. A point is non-coastal in a subcontinuum i…
The even-cut decomposition conjecture. Every Peano continuum satisfying the even-cut condition admits, for every , a finite cover of edge-disjoint…
The open Eulerianity conjecture. A Peano continuum is open Eulerian if and only if all but two vertices of have even degree.
The Eulerianity conjecture. A Peano continuum is Eulerian if and only if every edge cut of is even.
Crosscut extension conjecture. The following are equivalent:
Let be an IFS on and let be its attractor. Suppose that satisfies the open set condition and that every contraction in involves n…
Pseudo-solenoid projective-homogeneity conjecture. For every , there exists a homeomorphism of onto itself such that, for every ,
