Abstract

Let X be a compact metric space and T:X→X a continuous function. The induced hyperspace map TK acts on the hyperspace K(X) of closed and nonempty subsets of X, and on the continuum hyperspace C(X)⊂K(X) of connected sets. This work studies the mean dimension explosion phenomenon: when the base system T has zero topological entropy, but the mean dimension of the induced map TK is infinite. In particular, this phenomenon occurs for Morse–Smale diffeomorphisms. Furthermore, for a circle homeomorphism H, the mean dimension explosion does not occur if and only if H is conjugate to a rotation. For the metric mean dimension, a different result is obtained: we establish sufficient conditions for the induced hyperspace map to have zero or infinite metric mean dimension.
