Abstract:
Let X be a Peano continuum (i.e., a metric space that is compact, connected and locally connected). We show that every path-connected inverse limit of covering spaces over X is determined by its fundamental group and is homeomorphic to a quotient of the set of homotopy classes of based paths endowed with the shape topology.
