Abstract

A space X is said to be almost totally disconnected if the set of its degenerate components is dense in X. We prove that an almost totally disconnected compact metric space admits a minimal map if and only if either it is a finite set or it has no isolated point. As a consequence we obtain a characterization of minimal sets on dendrites and local dendrites.
