Abstract

This manuscript studies sensitivity and chaos for semigroup actions on completely regular spaces. The main results explain how the notions of attraction and control play a fundamental role in the investigation of Auslander–Yorke and Li–Yorke chaos. A general type of non-chaotic semigroup action is exhibited and a criterium for chaos in control systems is presented.
