Abstract:
We show that for group actions on locally connected spaces the maximal equicontinuous factor map is always monotone, that is, the preimages of single points are connected. As an application, we obtain that if the maximal equicontinuous factor of a homeomorphism of the two-torus is minimal, then it is either (i) an irrational translation of the two-torus, (ii) an irrational rotation on the circle, or (iii) the identity on a singleton.References
