Note that for any subset A of X, F(X) = { F(x)
Y : x
A } and that,
for any subset B of Y, F-1(B) = { a
X : F(a)
B } is the inverse image of B under F.
(a)
x
A
F(x)
F(A)
x
F-1(F(A))
This shows that A
F-1(F(A)).
Note that the above relation always holds for any function F, let
alone an injection.
(b)
This part uses the injectivity of F.
Suppose x
F-1(F(A)). Then, y = F(x)
F(A). By definition of F(A), there exists a z
A such that F(z) = y = F(x).
By the one-to-oneness of F, it follows that x = z. Thus, x
A.
Since x
A is arbitrary, hence F-1(F(A))
A.
Thus, by the Axiom of Extension (Two sets
are equal if and only if they have the same
elements),
F-1(F(A)) = A.

Let h : X −→ Y be defined by h(x) := f(x) if x ∈ F g −1 (x) if x ∈ X − F Now we must prove that h is injective and bijective. Starting with injectivity, let x1, x2 ∈ X such that h(x1) = h(x2). Assume x1 ∈ F and x2 ∈ X −F. Then h(x1) = f(x1) ∈ f(F) and h(x2) = g −1 (x2) ∈ g −1 (X − F) = Y...
