Prove that .
Answers
Proof. Suppose that for a set . Then we construct an injective so that
So for any define where is defined by
for . To show that is injective consider any where . Then there is an such that . Now let and so that
Since it follows by definition that . Similarly since it follows that . Hence we have
so that clearly . Thus is injective. □
