Question

Check the injectivity and surjectivity of the following function:

f: N → N given by f(x) = x2

Sum

Solution

f: Z → Z given by f(x) = x2

Z = {O, ±1, ±2, ±3,...}

(a) f : Z → Z

Let -1, 1 ∈ Z, f (-1) = f(1)

⇒ 1 = 1

But -1 ≠ 1       ∴f is not one-on-one, i.e., f is not injective.

(b) There are many such elements that belong to co-domain but have no pre-image in its domain z.

e.g., 2 ∈ Z (co-domain). But `2^(1//2) != Z` (domain)

∴  Element 2 has no pre-image in its domain Z.

f is not onto i.e., f is not surjective.
