Connected neighborhoods in Cartesian products of solenoids

Streszczenie
Given a collection of pairwise co-prime integers $m_{1},\ldots ,m_{r} \gt 1$, we consider the product $\Sigma =\Sigma _{m_{1}}\times \cdots \times \Sigma _{m_{r}}$, where each $\Sigma _{m_{i}}$ is the $m_{i}$-adic solenoid. Answering a question of D. P. Bellamy and J. M. Łysko, we prove that if $M$ is a subcontinuum of $\Sigma $ such that the projections of $M$ on each $\Sigma _{m_{i}}$ are onto, then for each open subset $U$ in $\Sigma $ with $M\subset U$, there exists an open connected subset $V$ of $\Sigma $ such that $M\subset V\subset U$, i.e. any such $M$ is ample in the sense of Prajs and Whittington (2007). This contrasts with the property of Cartesian squares of fixed solenoids $\Sigma _{m_{i}}\times \Sigma _{m_{i}}$, whose diagonals are never ample (Bellamy and Łysko, 2014).
