Abstract
Let {I, f, Z +} be a dynamical system induced by a continuous mapping f of a closed bounded interval I into itself. To describe the dynamics of neighborhoods of points unstable under the mapping f, we propose the concept of the εω-set ωf, ε(x) of a point x as the ω-limit set of the ε-neighborhood of the point x. We investigate the relationship between the εω-set and the domain of influence of a point. It is also shown that the domain of influence of an unstable point is always a cycle of intervals. The results obtained can be directly used in the theory of difference equations with continuous time and similar equations.
