Abstract: In this paper, expansive mappings are seen as generalizations of expansive homeomorphisms, and known theorems are generalized. The nonexistence of expansive functions on the open unit interval is proven, and a new example of an expansive homeomorphism on the open unit disk is given. Finally, a method for constructing expansive homeomorphisms from expansive mappings is given.
