(i) What does it mean to say that a function is injective? What does it mean to say that is surjective? Let be a function. Show that if is injective, then so is , and that if is surjective, then so is .
(ii) Let be two sets. Their product is the set of ordered pairs with . Let (for be the function
When is surjective? When is injective?
(iii) Now let be any set, and let be functions. Show that there exists a unique such that and .
