Review text

The authors introduce a new dynamical notion called \textit{first-time sensitivity} for homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces. This property is formulated in terms of the first increasing times at which open balls expand under iteration, and may be viewed as a refined sensitivity condition emphasizing the initial growth behavior of neighborhoods.\N\NIt is shown that several well-known classes of dynamical systems satisfy this property, including continuum-wise expansive homeomorphisms, the shift map on the Hilbert cube, and certain partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. Assuming first-time sensitivity, the authors prove the existence of local unstable continua exhibiting properties analogous to those arising in continuum-wise expansive dynamics.\N\NFurthermore, under first-time sensitivity together with additional technical assumptions, the authors establish the positivity of topological entropy. This result provides a new mechanism for entropy positivity that does not rely directly on expansiveness, thereby extending known relationships between instability phenomena and dynamical complexity.\N\NOverall, the work contributes to the study of generalized expansivity-type conditions and their dynamical consequences, particularly concerning the structure of unstable sets and entropy.
