Denition
Denition Let S, T be sets; a mapping (or a map or a function) from S to T is a rule that assigns to each element s S a unique element t T . This means that if s is a given element of S, then there is only one element t T that is associated to s by the mapping. Denote f is a mapping from S to T by f : S T and write t = f (s). S is called the domain and T is called the codomain. The symbols f (s) are read f of s".

We have constantly encountered mapping often in the form of formulas. But mappings need not be restricted to sets of numbers. They can occur in any area. Example
1
Let S = {all men who have ever lived} and T = {all women who have ever lived}. Dene f : S T by f (s) = mother of s. Therefore f (John F. Kennedy) = Rose Kenendy, and according to our denition, Rose Kennedy is the image under f of John F. Kennedy.

Let S be the set of all objects for sale in Vincom and let T = {all real numbers}. Dene f : S T by f (s) = price of s. This denes a mapping from S to T . Let S = {all legally employed citizens of Viet Nam} and T = {positive integers}. Dene, for s S, f (s) by f (s) = ID card number of s. Then f denes a mapping from S to T . Let S be the set of the colors of the rainbow. Let T = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. Dene f : S T by f (s) = the number of letters in a given color of the rainbow. Then f denes a mapping from S to T .

Denition The mapping iX : X X given by iX (x) = x for every x X is called the identity on X . Denition Let f be a mapping from S to T . For s S, f (s) is called the image of s under f , also the value of f at s. The set of all elements f (s), when s ranges over all elements of S, is called the image of S under f or the range of f , and is denoted by f (S): f (S) := {t | t = f (s), s S} or f (S) := {t | s S, t = f (s)}

Denition Given a mapping f : S T and a subset A T , we may want to look at B = {s S | f (s) A}, we use the notation f 1 (A) for this set B, and call f 1 (A) the inverse image of A under f . Consider the subset {t} in T , if the inverse image of {t} consists of only one element, say s S, we could try to dene f 1 (t) by dening f 1 (t) = s.

Denition
Denition A mapping f : S T is said to be one-to-one (written 1-1) or injective if for s1 = s2 in S, f (s1 ) = f (s2 ) in T . Equivalently, f is 1-1 iff (s1 ) = f (s2 ) implies that s1 = s2 . A mapping is 1-1 if it takes distinct objects into distinct images. In the examples we gave earlier, The rst mapping of is not 1-1(two brothers could have the same mother). The second mapping is 1-1 (distinct vietnamese citizens have distinct ID card number).

Denition
Denition The mapping f : S T is onto or surjective if every t T is the image under f of some s S; that is, if and only if, given t T , there exists an s S such that t = f (s). The mapping f : S T is onto by saying that f (S) = T . In the examples we gave earlier, the rst mapping is not onto, since not every woman that ever lived was the mother of a male child.

Example The function f : IR IR dened by f (x) = 2x + 1 is bijective. Given an arbitrary real number y, we can solve y = 2x + 1 to get exactly one real solution x = (y 1)/2.
The function g : IR IR dened by g(x) = x 2 is not bijective, for two essentially different reasons. g is not injective and g is not surjective either. Either one of these facts is enough to show that g is not bijective. The function h : [0, ) [0, ) with the same formula as g is bijective. Given an arbitrary nonnegative number y, we can solve y = x 2 to get exactly one nonnegative solution x = y .

Introduction
Now that we have the notion of a mapping and have singled out various type of mappings, we might very well ask : "Good and well. But what can we do with them?". Consider the situation g : S T and f : T U. Given an element s S, then g sends it into the element g(s) in T ; so g(s) is ripe for being acted on by f . Thus we get an element f (g(s)) in U. We claim that this procedure provides us with a mapping from S to U (Verify!).

Introduction
Given a mapping f : S T , the f 1 does not in general denes a mapping from T to S for several reasons. If f is not onto, so there is some t in T which is not the image of any element s in S, so f 1 (t) = .
If f is not 1-1, then for some t T there are at least two distinct s1 = s2 in S such that f (s1 ) = t = f (s2 ). So f 1 (t) is not a unique element of S (something we require in our denition of a mapping).
However, if f is both onto T and 1-1, i.e. f is bijective, then f 1 indeed denes a mapping of T onto S.

The reader may care to verify that commencing with 65 there are 19 iterations before 1 rst appears. Other integers may be tired at random as test cases, but the reader is advised to cultivate patience as the number of iterations before 1 rst appears may be quite large. The conjecture, that for any n IN and for sufciently many iterations the number 1 always appears, remain to be proved or disproved.
