Results about projections #
We show that the projection of a compact closed set s
in a product Π i, α i
onto one of the
spaces α j
is a closed set.
The idea of the proof is to use isClosedMap_snd_of_compactSpace
, which is the fact that if
X
is a compact topological space, then Prod.snd : X × Y → Y
is a closed map.
In our application, Y
is α j
and X
is the projection of s
to the product over all indexes
that are not j
. We define projCompl α j
for that projection map.
In order to be able to use the lemma isClosedMap_snd_of_compactSpace
, we have to make those
X
and Y
appear explicitly.
We remark that s
belongs to the set projCompl α j ⁻¹' (projCompl α j '' s)
, and we build
an homeomorphism projCompl α j ⁻¹' (projCompl α j '' s) ≃ₜ projCompl α j '' s × α j
.
projCompl α j
is a compact space since s
is compact, and the lemma applies.
Homeomorphism between the set of functions that concide with a given set of functions away
from a given i
, and dependent functions away from i
times any value on i
.
