Hello everyone, welcome to this video.
00:03
Here we are given with f from r to r be a function and we have to prove that if f is continuous then f inverse of g is open in r whenever g is open in r.
00:14
So first let us prove by taking that f is continuous on r.
00:23
So if f is continuous on r then there will be an element a which belongs to f inverse of g.
00:31
So by definition we can write f of a belongs to g.
00:37
Since g is open then there exists a epsilon greater than zero such that the ball of f of a comma epsilon will be contained in g.
00:59
So since f is continuous at a then there exists delta greater than zero such that x minus a modulus less than delta which implies that f of x minus f of a will be less than epsilon.
01:28
So that is x belongs to b of a comma delta which implies f of x belongs to b of f of a comma epsilon.
01:44
So in particular we can say f of x belongs to capital g.
01:53
So therefore we can say b of a comma delta is contained in f inverse of g.
02:01
So which means that f inverse of g is open.
02:08
Now we shall prove the part.
02:13
So suppose here let us take f inverse of g is open then we have to say that f is continuous.
02:23
So to prove here that is f is continuous.
02:29
Now here let us take a belongs to r where epsilon greater than zero and we know that a ball that is b of f of a comma epsilon is open in r then we can say f inverse of b of f of a comma epsilon as a belongs to as you can write it here a belongs to f inverse of b of f of a comma epsilon.
03:19
So which implies delta greater than zero such that b of a comma delta is contained in f inverse of b of f of a comma epsilon.
03:36
Now from this we can write that x minus a modulus is less than delta which implies that f of x minus f of a will be less than epsilon.
03:53
So from this we can say that by our definition we can say that f is continuous continuous at a.
04:07
So hence we proved the theorem...
