Implications of pseudo-orbit tracing property for continuous maps on compacta

AbstractWe look at the dynamics of continuous self-maps of compact metric spaces possessing the pseudo-orbit tracing property (i.e., the shadowing property). Among other things we prove the following: (i) the set of minimal points is dense in the non-wandering set Ω(f), (ii) if f has either a non-minimal recurrent point or a sensitive minimal subsystem, then f has positive topological entropy, (iii) if X is infinite and f is transitive, then f is either an odometer or a syndetically sensitive non-minimal map with positive topological entropy, (iv) if f has zero topological entropy, then Ω(f) is totally disconnected and f restricted to Ω(f) is an equicontinuous homeomorphism
