Abstract
For each positive integer n, we construct a function \(f:[0, 1]\rightarrow 2^{[0, 1]}\) (which we will call a filled n-stairs function) such that the inverse limit of an inverse sequence of closed unit intervals with f as the only bonding function (indexed by the integers) is an n-cell. This answers the question by R. P. Vernon.
