Abstract

For continuous self-maps of compact metric spaces, we explore the relationship among the shadowable points, sensitive points, and entropy points. Specifically, we show that (1) if the set of shadowable points is dense in the phase space, then any interior point of the set of sensitive points is an entropy point; and (2) if the topological entropy is zero, then the denseness of the set of shadowable points is equivalent to almost chain continuity. In addition, we present a counter-example to a question raised by Ye and Zhang regarding entropy points.
