Expansive homeomorphisms on quasi-metric spaces

Abstract

The investigation of expansive homeomorphisms in metric spaces began with Utz in 1950. Thereafter, several authors have extensively studied this concept for different motivations. In this current article, we study expansive homeomorphism in the context of quasi-pseudometric spaces. This is motivated by the fact that any expansive homeomorphism on quasi-pseudometric space is again expansive homeomorphism on its induced pseudometric space but the converse is not true in general. Moreover, the study of orbit structures has been taken to consideration in this article. For instance, we investigate the denseness of orbits in the context of quasi-metric spaces.
