Invariant set

𝛼- and 𝜔-limit sets

The 𝜔-limit set 𝐿𝜔(𝑥0) (𝛼-limit set 𝐿𝛼(𝑥0)) of 𝑥0 𝑀 is the set of all 𝑥 𝑀 for which there exists a strictly increasing (decreasing), unbounded sequence of times (𝑡𝑛)𝑛=1 such that lim𝑛Φ𝑡𝑛𝑥0 =𝑥.1 #m/def/dynamics

Properties

  1. If Φ𝑡 is bounded then 𝐿𝜔(𝑥0) is inhabited and connected
  2. If 𝐿𝜔(𝑥) is closed then it contains its limit points
  3. 𝐿𝜔(𝑥) is Invariant set
  4. 𝑧 𝐿𝜔(𝑦) and 𝑦 𝐿𝜔(𝑥) implies 𝑧 𝐿𝜔(𝑥)
