Exercise 1.43 (Smooth manifold chart lemma for manifolds with boundary)

Show that the smooth manifold chart lemma (Lemma 1.35) holds with “ n ” replaced with “ n or n ” and “smooth manifold” replaced by “smooth manifold with boundary”.

Lemma 1.35 (Smooth Manifold Chart Lemma). Let M be a set, and suppose we are given a collection { U α } of subsets of M together with maps φ α : U α n , such that the following properties are satisfied:

(i)
For each α , φ α is a bijection between U α and an open subset φ α ( U α ) n .
(ii)
For each α and β , the sets φ α ( U α U β ) and φ β ( U α U β ) are open in n .
(iii)
Whenever U α U β , the map φ β φ α 1 : φ α ( U α U β ) φ β ( U α U β ) is smooth.
(iv)
Countably many of the sets U α cover M .
(v)
Whenever p , q are distinct points in M , either there exists some U α containing both p and q or there exist disjoint sets U α , U β with p U α and q U β .

Then M has a unique smooth manifold structure such that each ( U α , φ α ) is a smooth chart.

Answers

The proof is identical to the proof of Lemma 1.35 with practically no changes applied but for replacing “ n ” with “ n or n ”.
