Abstract: We study the problem of Nadler and Quinn from 1972, which asks whether, given an arc-like continuum $X$ and a point $xinX$, there exists an embedding of $X$ in $mathbb{R}^2$ for which $x$ is an accessible point. We develop the notion of a radial departure of a map $fcolon[-1,1]o[-1,1]$, and establish a simple criterion in terms of the bonding maps in an inverse system on intervals to show that there is an embedding of the inverse limit for which a given point is accessible. Using this criterion, we give a partial affirmative answer to the problem of Nadler and Quinn, under some technical assumptions on the bonding maps of the inverse system.
