Shadowable points

We define shadowable points for homeomorphism on metric spaces. In the compact case we will prove the following results: The set of shadowable points is invariant, possibly nonempty or noncompact. A homeomorphism has the pseudo-orbit tracing property if and only if every point is shadowable. The chain recurrent and nonwandering sets coincides when every chain recurrent point is shadowable. Minimal or distal homeomorphisms of compact connected metric spaces have no shadowable points. The space is totally disconnected at every shadowable point for distal homeomorphisms (and conversely for equicontinuous homeomorphisms). A distal homeomorphism has the pseudo-orbit tracing property if and only if the space is totally disconnected (this improves Theorem 4 in \cite{mo}).
