    MappingsDefinition

    Definition

    Let S, T be sets; a mapping (or a map or a function) from S

    to T is a rule that assigns to each element s S a uniqueelement t T.This means that if s is a given element of S, then there is only

    one element t T that is associated to s by the mapping.Denote f is a mapping from S to T by f : S

    T and write

    t = f(s).S is called the domain and T is called the codomain.

    The symbols f(s) are read f of s".

    We have constantly encountered mapping often in the form of

    formulas. But mappings need not be restricted to sets of

    numbers. They can occur in any area.

    Example1 Let S = {all men who have ever lived} and

    T = {all women who have ever lived}.Define f : S T by f(s) = mother of s. Therefore

    f(John F. Kennedy) = Rose Kenendy,

    and according to our definition, Rose Kennedy is the image

    under f of John F. Kennedy.

    Example

    2 Let S be the set of all objects for sale in Vincom and let

    T = {all real numbers}. Define f : S T by f(s) = priceof s. This defines a mapping from S to T.

    3 Let S = {all legally employed citizens of Viet Nam} andT = {positive integers}. Define, for s S, f(s) byf(s) = ID card number of s. Then f defines a mappingfrom S to T.

    4 Let S be the set of the colors of the rainbow. Let

    T = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. Define f : S T by f(s) = thenumber of letters in a given color of the rainbow. Then f

    defines a mapping from S to T.

    Definition

    The mapping iX : X X given by iX(x) = x for every x X iscalled the identity on X.

    DefinitionLet f be a mapping from S to T. For s S, f(s) is called theimage of s under f, also the value of f at s. The set of all

    elements f(s), when s ranges over all elements of S, is calledthe image of S under f or the range of f, and is denoted by

    f(S):f(S) := {t | t = f(s), s S}

    Definition

    Given a mapping f : S T and a subset A T, we may wantto look at B = {s S | f(s) A}, we use the notation f1(A) forthis set B, and call f1(A) the inverse image of A under f.

    Consider the subset {t} in T, if the inverse image of {t}consists of only one element, say s S, we could try to definef1(t) by defining f1(t) = s.

    Injective mappingDefinition

    Definition

    A mapping f : S T is said to be one-to-one (written 1-1) orinjective if for s1

    = s2 in S, f(s1)

    = f(s2) in T. Equivalently, f is

    1-1 iff(s1) = f(s2) implies that s1 = s2.

    A mapping is 1-1 if it takes distinct objects into distinct images.

    In the examples we gave earlier,

    The first mapping of is not 1-1(two brothers could have the

    same mother).

    The second mapping is 1-1 (distinct vietnamese citizens

    have distinct ID card number).

    Definition

    The mapping f : S

    T is onto or surjective if every t

    T is

    the image under f of some s S; that is, if and only if, givent T, there exists an s S such that t = f(s).The mapping f : S T is onto by saying that f(S) = T.In the examples we gave earlier, the first mapping is not onto,

    since not every woman that ever lived was the mother of a malechild.

    g is not injective and g is not surjective either. Either one of

    these facts is enough to show that g is not bijective.

    The function h : [0, ) [0, ) with the same formula asg is bijective.

    Composition of mapsIntroduction

    Now that we have the notion of a mapping and have singled out

    various type of mappings, we might very well ask : "Good and

    well. But what can we do with them?".

    Consider the situation

    g : S T and f : T U.

    Given an element s S, then g sends it into the element g(s)in T; so g(s) is ripe for being acted on by f.Thus we get an element f(g(s)) in U. We claim that thisprocedure provides us with a mapping from S to U (Verify!).

    We prove i) and leave ii) to be proved in Exercise. i) and ii)

    imply iii).Let u U. Then since f is surjective we have t T such thatf(t) = u. Since g is surjective we have s S such that f(s) = t.Then

    (f

    g)(s) = f(g(s)) = f(t) = u

    and so f g is surjective.

    Proof.

    Let a

    S, then

    [f (g h)](a) = f((g h)(a)) = f(g(h(a)))

    and

    [(f

    g)

    h](a) = (f

    g)(h(a)) = f(g(h(a))).

    Thus

    [f (g h)](a) = [(f g) h](a)and since a is arbitrary

    f (g h) = (f g) h

    There is really no need for parentheses, so we write f (g h)as f

    g

    h.

    Inverse mapsIntroduction

    Given a mapping f : S T, the f1 does not in general definesa mapping from T to S for several reasons.

    If f is not onto, so there is some t in T which is not the

    image of any element s in S, so f

    1(t) = .If f is not 1-1, then for some t T there are at least twodistinct s1 = s2 in S such that f(s1) = t = f(s2). So f1(t)is not a unique element of S (something we require in our

    definition of a mapping).

    However, if f is both onto T and 1-1, i.e. f is bijective, then f1

    indeed defines a mapping of T onto S.

    Inverse maps

    Theorem

    Bijective mapping f : S T defines a mapping from T onto S.This mapping is called the inverse mapping of f and denoted by

    f1.

    Example

    a) f : IR

    IR, y = f(x) = 2x + 1 then x = f1(y) =

    y 1

    2b) f : IR (0, +), y = f(x) = ex then x = f1(y) = ln y

    Lemma

    If f : S T is a bijection, then(f1)1 = f and f f1 = iT,f1

    , where iS

    and iT

    are the identity mappings of S and

    Lemma (Inverse of composition)

    Let f : S

    T and g : T

    U be bijective mappings. Then

    (g f)1 = f1 g1

    Mappings may appear to be necessary but somewhat

    humdrum objects of study(!).

    However particular mapping give rise to curious problems.

    Consider the mapping f : IN IN given by

    f(n) =

    12

    n (n even)12 (3n+ 1) (n odd)

    Thus f(26) = 13, f(25) = 12

    (75 + 1) = 38.

    Suppose we iterate this mapping several times and, by way of

    illustration, we follow the effect of the iterations on the number

    10. Then

    f(10) = 5,

    After five iterations on 10 the number 1 appears.

    The reader may care to verify that commencing with 65

    there are 19 iterations before 1 first appears.

    Other integers may be tired at random as test cases, but

    the reader is advised to cultivate patience as the number ofiterations before 1 first appears may be quite large.

    The conjecture, that for any n IN and for sufficiently manyiterations the number 1 always appears, remain to be proved or

    disproved.
