Orbits of Darboux-like real functions (Q930112)

There are shown the following results: (i) there is an extendable function from \(\mathbb{R}\) to \(\mathbb{R}\) which is ``universal for orbits'' in the sense that it possesses every orbit of every function from \(\mathbb{R}\) to \(\mathbb{R}\) up to an arbitrary small translation, and which has orbits asymptotic to any real sequence, (ii) there is a function \(f: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}\) such that for every \(n\in\mathbb{N}\), \(f^n\) is almost continuous and the graph of \(f^n\) is dense in \(\mathbb{R}^2\), in spite of the fact that all \(f\)-orbits are finite.
