The monomorphism semigroup of S(X)

From MaRDI portal





X is any local dendrite with finite branch number which is not an arc, S(X) is the semigroup of all continuous selfmaps of X, R(X) is the subsemigroup of S(X) consisting of all those functions in S(X) which map some retract of X homeomorphically onto X and Mon(S(X)) is the semigroup of all monomorphisms from S(X) into S(X). The main result is that Mon(S(X)) is isomorphic to the dual of R(X). In addition, those spaces X are characterized, within the class of local dendrites with finite branch numbers, for which Mon(S(X)) is a group.
