Statement

Commutative diagram showing the situation
Let X and Y be sets, let f:XY be any function between them, and let ∼⊆X×X denote the equivalence relation induced by the function f, recall that means:
  • x,xX[xxf(x)=f(x)]

Then we claim we can factor[Note 1] f:XY through π:XX[Note 2] to yield an injective map:

  • ˜f:XY

Furthermore, if f:XY is surjective then ˜f:XY is not only injective but surjective to, that is: ˜f:XY is a bijection[Note 3].

Proof

Grade: A*
This page requires one or more proofs to be filled in, it is on a to-do list for being expanded with them.
Please note that this does not mean the content is unreliable. Unless there are any caveats mentioned below the statement comes from a reliable source. As always, Warnings and limitations will be clearly shown and possibly highlighted if very important (see template:Caution et al).

Notes

  1. Jump up AKA: passing to the quotient
  2. Jump up the canonical projection of the equivalence relation, given by π:x[x] where [x] denotes the equivalence class containing x
  3. Jump up See "If a surjective function is factored through the canonical projection of the equivalence relation induced by that function then the yielded function is a bijection" for details
