Abstract

Let X be a continuum. The n-fold hyperspace Cn(X), n < ∞, is the space of all nonempty closed subsets of X with at most n components. A topological property P is said to be a (an almost) sequential decreasing strong size property provided that if μ is a strong size map for Cn(X, {tj}j=1 is a sequence in the interval (t,1) such that lim tj = t ∈ [0,1) (t ∈ (0,1)) and each fiber μ−1(tj) has property P, then so does μ−1(t). In this paper we show that the following properties are sequential decreasing strong size properties: being a Kelley continuum, local connectedness, continuum chainability and, unicoherence. Also we prove that indecomposability is an almost sequential decreasing strong size property.
