Retral spaces and continua with the fixed point property
Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae, Tome 47 (2006) no. 4, pp. 661-668
We show that every retral continuum with the fixed point property is locally connected. It follows that an indecomposable continuum with the fixed point property is not a retract of a topological group.
