چکیده
This paper constructs a continuous decomposition of the Sierpiński curve into acyclic continua one of which is an arc. This decomposition is then used to construct another continuous decomposition of the Sierpiński curve. The resulting decomposition space is homeomorphic to the continuum obtained from taking the Sierpiński curve and identifying two points on the boundary of one of its complementary domains. This outcome is shown to imply that there are continuum many topologically different one dimensional locally connected plane continua that are homogeneous with respect to monotone open maps.

On generalized homogeneity of locally connected plane continua
The well-known result of S. Mazurkiewicz that the simple closed curve is the only nondegenerate locally connected plane homogeneous continuum is extended to generalized homogeneity with respect to some other classes of mappings. Several open problems in the area are posed.
متن کاملOn Monotone Retractability into Simple Arcs
Radó has noted that (II) implies (r) and that the sphere and 2-cell each have (II). In this paper it will be shown that (1) for locally connected continua in general, property (II) is equivalent to unicoherence, (2) for plane locally connected continua, property (ir) is equivalent to unicoherence, and (3) every closed 2-dimensional connected manifold has property (x). To clarify our meaning, we...
متن کاملEvery Monotone Open 2-homogeneous Metric Continuum Is Locally Connected
In [16, Theorem 3.12, p. 397], Ungar answered a question of Burgess [2] by showing that every 2-homogeneous metric continuum is locally connected. A short, elementary and elegant proof of this result has been given by Whittington [17] who has omitted a powerful result of Effros (viz. Theorem 2.1 of [4, p. 39]) used by Ungar. It is observed in this note that Whittington's proof can be applied to...
متن کاملOn a Certain Type of Homogeneous Plane Continuum
In 1920 very little was known about the class of homogeneous, bounded continua in the plane. At that time Knaster and Kuratowski [l] raised the question:1 Is every such (nondegenerate) continuum a simple closed curve? Mazurkiewicz [2] showed such a continuum is a simple closed curve if it is locally connected, and I showed this is the case if the continuum is aposyndetic [3]. H. J. Cohen [4] pr...
متن کاملSimply Connected Homogeneous Continua Are Not Separated by Arcs
We show that locally connected, simply connected homogeneous continua are not separated by arcs. We ask several questions about homogeneous continua which are inspired by analogous questions in geometric group theory.
