What do we call the function in this diagram?

In summary, the function f' in the first diagram is the extension of function f, where i is an inclusion map. In the second diagram, f' is the restriction of function f, also with i as an inclusion map. In the third diagram, f' is the lifting of function f, and in the fourth diagram, f' is the inverse of lifting. The inverse of lifting is similar to how restriction is the inverse of extension.

We call the function f' in this diagrams:

[tex]\begin{displaymath}
\begin{xy}
*!C\xybox{
\xymatrix{
{E}\ar[r]^{i} \ar[d]_{f} & {X} \ar[dl]^{f'}\\
{Y} &}}
\end{xy}
\end{displaymath}
[/tex]
the entension of function f;
(i is an inclusion map)

[tex]\begin{displaymath}
\begin{xy}
*!C\xybox{
\xymatrix{
{E}\ar[r]^{i} \ar[dr]_{f'} & {X} \ar[d]^{f}\\
&{Y} }}
\end{xy}
\end{displaymath}
[/tex]
the restriction of function f;
(i is an inclusion map)

[tex]\begin{displaymath}
\begin{xy}
*!C\xybox{
\xymatrix{
&{E}\ar[d]^{p}\\
{X}\ar[ur]^{f'}\ar[r]_{f} & {Y} } }
\end{xy}
\end{displaymath}
[/tex]
the lifting of function f;

then how do we call the function f' in this this diagram:
[tex]\begin{displaymath}
\begin{xy}
*!C\xybox{
\xymatrix{
{X}\ar[r]^{f}\ar[rd]_{f'} & {Y} \ar[d]^{p}\\
&{E} } }
\end{xy}
\end{displaymath}
[/tex]

Oh,the latex codes do not display properly here.
So my question is what is the inverse of lifting? like restriction is the inverse of extension.
 

What do we call the function in this diagram?

The function in this diagram is typically referred to as a mathematical function because it represents a relationship between two or more variables, where each input has a unique output.

What is the purpose of a function in a diagram?

The purpose of a function in a diagram is to visually represent the relationship between the input and output variables. It helps to understand and analyze the behavior of the function and make predictions about its values.

How can we identify the function in a diagram?

To identify a function in a diagram, we can look for a clear pattern between the input and output variables. A function will have only one output for each input, and the input values should not repeat. Additionally, the function may be represented by a line, curve, or series of points in the diagram.

Can a function have multiple names?

Yes, a function can have multiple names. In mathematics, the same function can be represented by different notations or symbols, but it still represents the same relationship between the input and output variables.

Are all diagrams representations of functions?

No, not all diagrams are representations of functions. A diagram may represent a relationship between variables, but if each input does not have a unique output, it is not a function. For example, a circle is not a function because it has multiple outputs for each input.
