Horseshoes, Entropy, Homoclinic Trajectories, and Lyapunov Stability

    https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218127414500163Cited by:2 (Source: Crossref)

    We consider six properties of continuous maps, such as the existence of an arc horseshoe, the positivity of topological entropy, the existence of a homoclinic trajectory, or Lyapunov instability on the set of periodic points. The relations between the considered properties are provided in the case of graph maps, dendrite maps and maps on compact metric spaces. For example, by [Llibre & Misiurewicz, 1993] in the case of graph maps, the existence of an arc horseshoe implies the positivity of topological entropy, but we construct a continuous map on a Peano continuum with an arc horseshoe and zero topological entropy. We also formulate one open problem.
