u-mappings on trees

Marcus Marlene Marsh

Vol. 127 (1987), No. 2, 373–387
Abstract

David Bellamy has shown that there exist tree-like continua which do not have the fixed point property. We give sufficient conditions for a tree-like continuum to have the fixed point property. In order to establish this result, we define u-mappings on trees and show that each u-mapping is universal. Our results generalize similar theorems of C. A. Eberhart and J. B. Fugate in [3].
