Update: In the category of sets, an epimorphism is a surjective map and a monomorphism is an injective map. As is mentioned in the morphisms question, the usual notation is …

I have the same feeling as yours: often, proving that a linear map is injective is easier than proving it is surjective. Of course we are talking about infinite-dimensional vector spaces, otherwise …

For one, you can talk about a function being surjective if the domain and codomain are simply sets, but you cannot talk about a function being continuous unless the domain and codomain …

Jan 4, 2021 · Can you explain if the inverse of a bijective function is always a bijection, and the same for the inverses of a surjection and injection (i.e. is the inverse of a surjective function …

Nov 22, 2017 · To show a function is surjective, for any element in the codomain we have to show their is an element in the domain that maps to it. Is there an natural number that when we …

Mar 30, 2020 · If the function is going from A to A, then the cardinality of the domain and codomain are the same, and if it is either surjective or injective, then wouldn't it have to also be …
