Proving $f$ is continuous iff all the functions parameterized are continuous












2












$begingroup$



Let $(Y,tau)$ and $(X_i,tau_i),i=1,2,...n$ be the topological spaces. Further for each i , let $f_i$ be a mapping of $(Y,tau)$ into $(X_i,tau_i)$. Porve that the mapping $f:(Y,tau)toprod_limits{i=1}^{n}(X_i,tau_i)$, given by $f(y)=(f_1(y),f_2(y),...,f_n(y))$ is continuous if and only if every $f_i$ is continuous.




My proof:



$rightarrow$ Let $U$ be an open set of $(prod_limits{i=1}^{n}X_i,tau_i)$
Suppose $f$ is continuous then $f^{-1}(U)intau$



$f_i(U)=p_icirc f(U)$ where $p_i$ is the projection $p_i:(prod_limits{i=1}^{n}X_i,tau_i)to (X_itau_i)$.



As $f_i(U)$ is a composition of two continuous functions hence it is continuous.



$leftarrow$ Let $U=U_1times U_2times...times U_itimes...times U_n$ be an open set in the subspace topology $f(Y),tau_{nY}$



Supposing $f_i$ is continuous forall the $i=1,2...n$ then



$f^{-1}_icirc p_i(U)=f^{-1}(U_i)intau_i$



But $f^{-1}(U)=f^{-1}_icirc p_i(U)$ then $f$ is continuous.



Question:



Is my proof right? If not. Why not?



Thanks in advance!

          $leftarrow$ Let $U=U_1times U_2times...times U_itimes...times U_n subset prod_limits{i=1}^{n}(X_i,tau_i)$ with each $U_i$ open $X_i$, so that $U$ is open in the product space. These open sets form a basis, so we only have to show that $f^{-1}(U)$ must be open in $Y$ to prove the continuity of $f$.
