    Find Array Mapping Homework Solution

    Homework Statement I don't know if this has ties to linear algebra, so sorry in advance if I'm posting in a wrong section. We have an n*n matrix A, n is an odd number, and "the matrix's sides are 0" meaning: we'll call non-zero elements as 1's for now.1st line 1111...1111 2nd line 0111...1110...

    Is Every Continuous Open Mapping Monotonic?

    Homework Statement So I'm going through baby Rudin. Problem 15 in chapter 4 has us trying to prove that every continuous open mapping is monotonic. I'm trying to see how this is the case. So, I'm considering f(x) = sin(x). Let V = (Pi/3, 7*Pi/12) be an open set. Then, f(V) = (\sqrt{3}/2, (1...

    Mapping intervals to sets which contain them

    I have recently been extremely bothered by the fact that we can construct a bijection from [0,1] onto the entire two-dimensional plane which itself contains [0,1]. Similarly, I have been bothered by the fact that we can construct a bijection from (0,1) to all real numbers. Indeed we do so...

    An open mapping is not necessarily a closed mapping in functional analysis

    We know that a linear operator T:X\rightarrowY between two Banach Spaces X and Y is an open mapping if T is surjective. Here open mapping means that T sends open subsets of X to open subsets of Y. Prove that if T is an open mapping between two Banach Spaces then it is not necessarily a closed...

    Big Bang - galaxies not mapping onto a point

    Is F(x)=\sqrt{1+x^2} a Contraction Mapping on R?

    If I take F(x)=\sqrt{1+x^2}, then the derivative is always less than one so this is a contraction mapping from R to R, right? But there is no fixed point where F(x)=x, where the contraction mapping theorem says there should be. So where have I gone wrong? Cheers
