Statement

Let [ilmath](X,\mathcal{ J })[/ilmath] and [ilmath](Y,\mathcal{ K })[/ilmath] be topological spaces and suppose that [ilmath]f:X\rightarrow Y[/ilmath] is a homeomorphism between them, so [ilmath]X\cong_f Y[/ilmath], then:

  • [ilmath]\forall A\in\mathcal{P}(X)[A\cong_{f\vert_{A}^{\text{Im} } } f(A)][/ilmath]
    • In words: For all subspaces of [ilmath]X[/ilmath], suppose in particular [ilmath]A[/ilmath] is a subspace, then [ilmath]f\vert_{A}^\text{Im}:A\rightarrow f(A)[/ilmath] - the restriction onto its image of [ilmath]f[/ilmath] to [ilmath]A[/ilmath] - is a homeomorphism between [ilmath]A[/ilmath] and [ilmath]f(A)\subseteq Y[/ilmath]
      • So [ilmath]A\cong_{f\vert_A^\text{Im} }f(A)[/ilmath] explicitly
