Consider the field Q(\sqrt{2}), viewed as a vector space of dimension 2
over Q. Let r + s\sqrt{2} \in Q(\sqrt{2}), and define the multiplication map
M_{r+s\sqrt{2}}: Q(\sqrt{2}) → Q(\sqrt{2}) by
M_{r+s\sqrt{2}}(\alpha)= (r+s\sqrt{2})*\alpha

My textbook says that "a chart or coordinate system consists of a subset U of a set M, along with a one-to-one map \phi :U\rightarrow\mathbf{R}^n, such that the image \phi(U) is open in \mathbf{R}^n."
What's the motivation for demanding that the image of U under \phi be open?
