Extract

1. Suppose that f is a homeomorphism of the Euclidean plane E2 onto itself. The set ME2 is said to be invariant if f(M) = M and minimal if it is non-void, closed, invariant and irreducible with respect to these properties. In general, invariant and minimal sets in E2 can have a finite or infinite number of components.
