Weak Horseshoe with Bounded-Gap-Hitting Times

In this paper,we consider weak horseshoe with bounded-gap-hitting times.For a flow(M,Ф),it is shown that if the time one map(M,Ф_(1))has weak horseshoe with boundedgap-hitting times,so is(M,Ф_(τ))for all τ≠0.In addition,we prove that for an affine homeomorphism of a compact metric abelian group,positive topological entropy is equivalent to weak horseshoe with bounded-gap-hitting times.
