Finitely generatedness of continuously homogeneous indecomposable planar continua
Finitely generatedness of continuously homogeneous indecomposable planar continua
A continuum is a compact connected metrizable space. A continuum is indecomposable if it cannot be written as the union of two proper subcontinua. A continuum is planar if it embeds in the plane. It is finitely generated if either it does not embed essentially into , or it embeds essentially into and there exists a continuum in such that .
Finitely generatedness conjecture. Any continuously homogeneous indecomposable planar continuum is finitely generated.
This is the specific conjecture associated with the finitely generated class. The supplied text gives no resolution; it also notes examples of continua that are not finitely generated, including certain inverse limits and self-entwined circle-like continua.
