Every Monotone Open 2-homogeneous Metric Continuum Is Locally Connected

Abstract

It is observed that all results of Whittington's note [17] can be extended in two directions. The assumption of homogeneity of the considered spaces can be weakened to monotone open homogeneity, and homeomorphisms used in the results can be replaced by monotone open and closed mappings. In particular, the statement in the title is obtained.
