Pointwise-recurrent graph maps

From MaRDI portal





The main result of the paper is Theorem 4.4: Assume that \(G\) be a connected graph and \(f:G\to G\) be a continuous map. Then, \(f\) is pointwise-recurrent if and only if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) \(G\) is a circle and \(f\) is a homeomorphism topologically conjugate to an irrational rotation of the unit circle, (2) \(f\) is a periodic homeomorphism. The proof is based on some lemmas; let us quote two of them. Lemma 4.1: Let \(G\) be a connected graph, \(f:G\to G\) be an pointwise-recurrent continuous map and \(W\) be a minimal set of \(f\). If \(W\neq G\), then \(W\) is a periodic orbit of \(f\). Lemma 4.3: If \(G\) is a connected graph, \(f:G\to G\) is a pointwise-recurrent continuous map and \(G\) is not a circle or \(G\) is a circle but \(f\) is not a minimal map (\(f\) is a minimal map if \(G\) is the unique minimal set of \(f)\), then every point \(x\in G\) is periodic.
