The converse to Borsuk's result on fans fails
Abstract
A fan is an arc-wise connected hereditarily unicoherent continuum with exactly one branching point. By a result of Borsuk, every fan is a 1-dimensional continuum that can be expressed as the union of a family of arcs, each pair of which intersects in the branching point. In this paper, we prove that the converse does not hold by providing a more general result.
