Inverse limits of families of set-valued functions (Q2343197)

This paper is a further contribution to the continuum theory of inverse limits of set-valued functions, dealing with parameterized families of upper semi-continuous set-valued functions. The emphasis is on finding conditions under which the inverse limits is the closure of a topological ray, an indecomposable continuum, or a chainable continuum. This in particular adds to the list of examples of chainable continua arising as inverse limits of set-valued functions, and results are found on the question of when an inverse limit arising in this way can also be expressed as an inverse limit of maps.
