Given a point $p\\in\\beta S$, the Stone-\\v Cech compactification of the discrete space $S$, $T_p:X\\to X$ is defined by, for $x\\in X$, $\\displaystyle T_p(x)=p{-}\\!\\lim_{s\\in S}T_s(x)$. We let $\\beta S$ have the operation extending the operation of $S$ such that $\\beta S$ is a right topological semigroup and multiplication on the left by any point of $S$ is continuous. Given $p,q\\in\\beta S$, $T_p\\circ T_q=T_{pq}$, but $T_p$ is usually not continuous. Given a dynamical system $(X,\\langle T_s\\rangle_{s\\in S})$, and a point $x\\in X$, we let $U(x)=\\{p\\in\\beta S:T_p(x)$ is uniformly recurrent$\\}$. We show that each $U(x)$ is a left ideal of $\\beta S$ and for any semigroup we can get a dynamical system with respect to which $K(\\beta S)=\\bigcap_{x\\in X}U(x)$ and $c\\ell K(\\beta S)=\\bigcap\\{U(x):x\\in X$ and $U(x)$ is closed$\\}$. And we show that weak cancellation assumptions guarantee that each such $U(x)$ properly contains $K(\\beta S)$ and has $U(x) \\setminus c\\ell K(\\beta S)\\neq \\emptyset$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-08-19T08:47:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dynamical system", "weak cancellation assumptions guarantee", "recurrence", "compact hausdorff space", "right topological semigroup" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
