Let $x \in G$ be a topologically transitive point and $U, V \subset X$ be non-empty and open. Since $Gx$ is dense in $G$, $Gx \cap U \ne \emptyset$ and $Gx \cap V \ne \emptyset$. After translating $x$, assume without loss of generality that $x \in U$, then $GU \supset Gx \cap V \ne \emptyset$. Therefore there exists $g \in G$ such that $gU \cap V \ne \emptyset$.

\begin{definition}[Minimality]
|
|
||||||
\label{definition:tds-minimal}
|
|
||||||
Let $G \curvearrowright X$ be a $G$-flow, then the following are equivalent:
|
|
||||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
||||||
\item $G \curvearrowright X$ admits no proper subflows.
|
|
||||||
\item Every point in $X$ is topologically transitive.
|
|
||||||
\item For every $x \in X$ and $\emptyset \ne U \subset X$ open, $N(x, U)$ is syndetic in $G$. In particular, $x$ is uniformly recurrent.
|
|
||||||
\end{enumerate}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the above holds, then $G \curvearrowright X$ is \textbf{minimal}.
|
|
||||||
\end{definition}
|
|
||||||
\begin{proof}
|
|
||||||
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): Let $x \in X$, then $\ol{Gx}$ with the restricted action is a $G$-subflow of $X$. As $\emptyset \ne \ol{Gx}$ and $G \curvearrowright X$ admits no proper subflows, $\ol{Gx} = x$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (1): Let $G \curvearrowright Y$ be a $G$-subflow of $G \curvearrowright X$. For any $x \in Y$, $Y \supset \ol{Gx} = X$, so $Y = X$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (3): Let $\emptyset \ne U \subset X$ be open. Since $G \curvearrowright X$ is minimal, $Gx \cap U \ne \emptyset$ for all $x \in X$. Thus $X \subset G^{-1}U = GU$. By compactness of $X$, there exists $F \subset G$ finite such that $FU = X$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Let $x \in X$ be arbitrary, then for each $g \in G$, $gx \in X = FU$. Thus there exists $h \in F$ with $gx \in hU$ and $h^{-1}gx \in U$. Hence $h^{-1}g \in N(x, U)$, and $g \in hN(x, U) \subset FN(x, U)$.
|

\begin{lemma}

\label{lemma:tds-minimal-recurrent}

Let $G$ be an infinite group and $G \curvearrowright X$ be minimal $G$-flow, then every point in $X$ is recurrent.
|
|
||||||
\end{lemma}
|
|
||||||
\begin{proof}
|
|
||||||
Let $x \in X$ and $U \in \cn_X(x)$, then $N(x, U)$ is syndetic. As $G$ is infinite, so is $N(x, U)$.

\begin{definition}[Minimal Point]
|
|
||||||
\label{definition:tds-minimal-point}
|
|
||||||
Let $G \curvearrowright X$ be a $G$-flow and $x \in X$, then the following are equivalent:
|
|
||||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
||||||
\item $G \curvearrowright \ol{Gx}$ is a minimal $G$-subflow.
|
|
||||||
\item $x$ is uniformly recurrent.
|
|
||||||
\end{enumerate}
|
|
||||||
\end{definition}
|
|
||||||
\begin{proof}
|
|
||||||
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): See \autoref{definition:tds-minimal}.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (1): Let $Y = \ol{Gx}$ and $y \in Y$. For any $U \in \cn_X(x)$, since $X$ is a compact Hausdorff space, there exists $V \in \cn_X(x)$ with $\ol{V} \subset U$. As $N(x, V)$ is syndetic in $G$, there exists $F \subset G$ finite such that $G = F^{-1}N(x, V)$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Since $\ol{Gx} = Y$, there exists an ultrafilter $\fF \subset 2^G$ such that $\fF x \to y$. As $G = \bigcup_{f \in F}N(x, V)$, there exists $f \in F$ such that $f^{-1}N(x, V) \in \fF$. Thus $y = \lim \fF x \subset \ol{f^{-1}N(x, V)} \subset \ol{f^{-1}V}$. Equivalently, $fy \in \ol{V}$, and $Gy \cap U \supset Gy \cap f^{-1}\ol{V} \ne \emptyset$. As this holds for all $U \in \cn_X(x)$, $x \in \ol{Gy}$, and $\ol{Gy} = \ol{Gx} = Y$. Therefore every point in $Y$ is transitive, and $G \curvearrowright Y$ is a minimal subflow.

\begin{definition}[Minimality]
|

|
\label{definition:tds-minimal}
|
||||||
|
Let $G \curvearrowright X$ be a $G$-flow, then the following are equivalent:
|
||||||
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
||||||
|
\item $G \curvearrowright X$ admits no proper subflows.
|
||||||
|
\item Every point in $X$ is topologically transitive.
|
||||||
|
\item For every $x \in X$ and $\emptyset \ne U \subset X$ open, $N(x, U)$ is syndetic in $G$. In particular, $x$ is uniformly recurrent.
|
||||||
|
\end{enumerate}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the above holds, then $G \curvearrowright X$ is \textbf{minimal}.
|
||||||
|
\end{definition}
|
||||||
|
\begin{proof}
|
||||||
|
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): Let $x \in X$, then $\ol{Gx}$ with the restricted action is a $G$-subflow of $X$. As $\emptyset \ne \ol{Gx}$ and $G \curvearrowright X$ admits no proper subflows, $\ol{Gx} = x$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (1): Let $G \curvearrowright Y$ be a $G$-subflow of $G \curvearrowright X$. For any $x \in Y$, $Y \supset \ol{Gx} = X$, so $Y = X$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (3): Let $\emptyset \ne U \subset X$ be open. Since $G \curvearrowright X$ is minimal, $Gx \cap U \ne \emptyset$ for all $x \in X$. Thus $X \subset G^{-1}U = GU$. By compactness of $X$, there exists $F \subset G$ finite such that $FU = X$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Let $x \in X$ be arbitrary, then for each $g \in G$, $gx \in X = FU$. Thus there exists $h \in F$ with $gx \in hU$ and $h^{-1}gx \in U$. Hence $h^{-1}g \in N(x, U)$, and $g \in hN(x, U) \subset FN(x, U)$.

Let $G$ be an infinite group and $G \curvearrowright X$ be minimal $G$-flow, then every point in $X$ is recurrent.
|
||||||
|
\end{lemma}
|
||||||
|
\begin{proof}
|
||||||
|
Let $x \in X$ and $U \in \cn_X(x)$, then $N(x, U)$ is syndetic. As $G$ is infinite, so is $N(x, U)$.

\begin{definition}[Minimal Point]
|

\label{definition:tds-minimal-point}

Let $G \curvearrowright X$ be a $G$-flow and $x \in X$, then the following are equivalent:
|
||||||

\begin{enumerate}
|
||||||

\item $G \curvearrowright \ol{Gx}$ is a minimal $G$-subflow.
|
||||||
|
\item $x$ is uniformly recurrent.
|
||||||
|
\end{enumerate}
|
||||||
|
\end{definition}
|
||||||
|
\begin{proof}
|
||||||
|
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): See \autoref{definition:tds-minimal}.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (1): Let $Y = \ol{Gx}$ and $y \in Y$. For any $U \in \cn_X(x)$, since $X$ is a compact Hausdorff space, there exists $V \in \cn_X(x)$ with $\ol{V} \subset U$. As $N(x, V)$ is syndetic in $G$, there exists $F \subset G$ finite such that $G = F^{-1}N(x, V)$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since $\ol{Gx} = Y$, there exists an ultrafilter $\fF \subset 2^G$ such that $\fF x \to y$. As $G = \bigcup_{f \in F}N(x, V)$, there exists $f \in F$ such that $f^{-1}N(x, V) \in \fF$. Thus $y = \lim \fF x \subset \ol{f^{-1}N(x, V)} \subset \ol{f^{-1}V}$. Equivalently, $fy \in \ol{V}$, and $Gy \cap U \supset Gy \cap f^{-1}\ol{V} \ne \emptyset$. As this holds for all $U \in \cn_X(x)$, $x \in \ol{Gy}$, and $\ol{Gy} = \ol{Gx} = Y$. Therefore every point in $Y$ is transitive, and $G \curvearrowright Y$ is a minimal subflow.
