Stable and non-stable non-chaotic maps of the interval. (English) Zbl 0762.58014
The paper deals with piecewise monotonic functions of the interval on itself. Other than the construction of a non-chaotic non-stable map, the author shows that every piecewise monotonic non-chaotic function is stable and that for any given piecewise monotonic function with zero topological entropy, every infinite $$\omega$$-limit set is perfect.
