Existence Of An Orbit of the Tent Map whose Closure is the Cantor Set [closed]
How to prove that
$$
T(x) = \frac{3}{2} - 3|x-\frac{1}{2}|,
$$
has at least one point with dense orbit with respect to its invariant middle third Cantor set?
Are there any basic solutions?
Thank you ...

Existence of Topologically Transitive Maps on nice Metric Spaces
Let $(X,d)$ be a separable metric space with no isolated points. Recall that a continuous function $T:(X,d)\rightarrow (X,d)$ is called topologically transitive if

I understand that for a system to behave chaotically, it needs to be "topologically mixing". However, I am not sure what that term really means.
There are several explanations of this online. ...

Is the sequence $(a_n)$ defined by $a_n=\tan{a_{n-1}}$, $a_0=1$, dense in $\Bbb{R}$?
Let $a_0=1,a_n=\tan{a_{n-1}}$. Then is $\{a_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ dense in $\Bbb{R}$?
I've drawn a map of this dynamical system and it seems that the sequence is dense on $\Bbb{R}$.
