Abstract |
|
The span of a metric space is the least upper bound of numbers α such that, roughly speaking, two points can move over the same portion of the space keeping a distance at least α from each other. The surjective span is obtained if it is required that, in addition, the whole space be covered by each of the moving points. These geometric ideas turn out to be important in continua theory. In the present paper, a simple triod is constructed such that the span of it is strictly greater than the surjective span. |
