Construct bijections $f_1 : ((0,1)times(2,3)) rightarrow (0,2)times(5,6)$ and $f_2 :...












0












$begingroup$


I need to construct two bijections:
$$f_1 : ((0,1)times(2,3)) rightarrow (0,2)times(5,6)$$
$$f_2 : (mathbb{Z}times[0,1))rightarrowmathbb{R}$$
I know what bijection means and all conditions that functions have to fulfill in order to be bijective, but I have no idea how should I 'construct' them. I thought of drawing graphs of each set from function $f_1$, but it does not help me to do further steps.

It would be nice if you could show me step-by-step how it should be done.

    Don't get too hung up on the word "construct". If you were just asked to find the bijections, would you know what to do?

    Have you tried just "guessing"? This is not a follow-a- method exercise, it's just a check question to make sure you have understood what a bijection is.

For $f_2$,The usual euclidean product of sets may be a little confusing here.



Try thinking of "$mathbb{Z}times[0,1)$" as the set "To each integer, assign an interval from 0 to 1." Then $f_2(x,t) = x+t$ is a bijection to $mathbb{R}$, where $xinmathbb{Z}$ is the integer part of some real number, and $tin[0,1)$ is the decimal part of that number.
