First he shows that shape morphisms of movable compacta are completely determined by their restrictions to movable components. Then he gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a shape morphism α between movable compacta X and Y to be an isomorphism. Such a condition is given in terms of the morphisms induced by α between the components of X and Y . This result improves a result of Dydak and Segal in the case of movable compacta. Finally, he shows that the shape category of a movable compactum is completely determined by the shape category of its movable components. The shape category is a numerical shape invariant introduced by Borsuk which in the case of polyhedra agrees with the Lyusternik-Shnirelʹman categoryengjournal articlehttp://journals.cambridge.org/abstract_S0305004100065087http://www.cambridge.org/restricted access514515.1Shape theoryQuotient spacesdecompositionsLjusternik-Schnirelman (Lyusternik-Shnirelʹman) category of a spaceGeometríaTopología1204 Geometría1210 Topología
