Abstract

Let f:X->X be the restriction to a hyperbolic basic set of a smooth diffeomorphism. If G is the special Euclidean group SE(2) we show that in the set of C2 G-extensions of f there exists an open and dense subset of stably transitive transformations. If G=KxRn, where K is a compact connected Lie group, we show that an open and dense set of C2 G-extensions satisfying a certain separation condition are transitive. The separation condition is necessary.
