Abstract:We consider dynamical systems of the form $(X,f)$ where $X$ is a compact metric space and $f\colon X\to X$ is either a continuous map or a homeomorphism and provide a new proof that there is no universal metric dynamical system of this kind. The same is true for metric minimal dynamical systems and for metric abstract $\omega$-limit sets, answering a question by Will Brian.
Keywords: universal metric dynamical system; minimal dynamical system
