Why can a diffeomorphism $F: M to N$ between two smooth manifolds with boundary not take an interior point of $M$ to a boundary point of $N$?



Let $(U, varphi)$ be a smooth chart for $M$, $(V, psi)$ a smooth chart for $N$.
I believe it is because it would cause $(psi circ F circ varphi^-1): varphi(U) to psi(V)$ to be a diffeomorphism between an open set in $mathbbR^n$ and an open set in $mathbbH^n$ such that its intersection with $partial mathbbH^n$ is nonempty, and this cannot be. However, I don't know how to prove this. Any help would be appreciated

          A diffeomorphism is in particular a homeomorphism, so a neighbourhood of a point must be mapped to a homeomorphic neighbourhood of the image of the point. In particular, it cannot take interior points to boundary points since they have non-homeomorphic neighbourhoods.

          • Ah, I think I see my confusion. Lee's Smooth Manifolds never explicitly says the nbds of the different kinds of points are not homeomorphic but he says that a point can never be both kinds of points, which is effectively saying the above. Thanks.

            @EmilioMinichiello: Javi's answer is correct (and I've upvoted) - but do you know how to prove they have non-homeomorphic neighborhoods? (And I wouldn't say they are non-homeomorphic by definition. They are certainly presented differently, but that doesn't rule out some kind of weird homeomorphism. The usual trick is local homology.)

He only says that a point cannot be a boundary point and an interior point simultaneously, and that every smooth chart will map a boundary point to the boundary of $mathbbH^n$. I'm trying to understand how this implies that $F(textIntM) = textIntN$.

          The usual proof that neighborhoods that intersect $partialmathbbH$ are distinct from neighborhoods uses the local homology groups $H^ast(M,Msetminusp)$ for different choices of $p$. It has the advantage of showing that a homeomorphism must map boundary to boundary and interior to interior.



          But since you're asking about diffeomorphisms, we should be able to work less hard. So how about this?



          Suppose $f:Mrightarrow N$ is a diffeomorphism and that $pin operatornameint M$ and $f(p)in partial N$. Then $d_p f:T_p Mrightarrow T_f(p) N$ must be an isomorphism.



          But I claim that is not. To see this, pick a $win T_f(p)$ which points outside of $N$. I claim there is no $vin T_p M$ with $d_p f(v) = w$.



          To see this, suppose there is such a $v$, choose a smooth path $gamma_v:(-epsilon,epsilon)rightarrow M$ with $gamma_v(0) = p$ and $gamma_v'(0) = v$. Then $fcircgamma$ is a smooth curve in $N$. By picking a chart near $f(p)$, we can view all this as happening in $mathbbR^n$.



          So, without loss of generality, we have a curve $gamma$ for which $gamma(0) = vec0in mathbbR^n$, $gammasubseteq H =(x_1,...,x_n)in mathbbR^n: x_nleq 0$, but $gamma'(0) notin H$. That is, the $n$th coordinate of $gamma'(0)$ is positive.



          Since $gamma$ is smooth, $gamma'$ is continuous, so the $n$-th coordinate of $gamma'(t)$ is positive in a neighborhood of $0$. But now the mean value theorem applied to the $n$th coordinate of $gamma$ implies that $gamma(t)notin H$ for small $t$ with $t>0$.

            The usual proof that neighborhoods that intersect $partialmathbbH$ are distinct from neighborhoods uses the local homology groups $H^ast(M,Msetminusp)$ for different choices of $p$. It has the advantage of showing that a homeomorphism must map boundary to boundary and interior to interior.



            But since you're asking about diffeomorphisms, we should be able to work less hard. So how about this?



            Suppose $f:Mrightarrow N$ is a diffeomorphism and that $pin operatornameint M$ and $f(p)in partial N$. Then $d_p f:T_p Mrightarrow T_f(p) N$ must be an isomorphism.



            But I claim that is not. To see this, pick a $win T_f(p)$ which points outside of $N$. I claim there is no $vin T_p M$ with $d_p f(v) = w$.



            To see this, suppose there is such a $v$, choose a smooth path $gamma_v:(-epsilon,epsilon)rightarrow M$ with $gamma_v(0) = p$ and $gamma_v'(0) = v$. Then $fcircgamma$ is a smooth curve in $N$. By picking a chart near $f(p)$, we can view all this as happening in $mathbbR^n$.



            So, without loss of generality, we have a curve $gamma$ for which $gamma(0) = vec0in mathbbR^n$, $gammasubseteq H =(x_1,...,x_n)in mathbbR^n: x_nleq 0$, but $gamma'(0) notin H$. That is, the $n$th coordinate of $gamma'(0)$ is positive.



            Since $gamma$ is smooth, $gamma'$ is continuous, so the $n$-th coordinate of $gamma'(t)$ is positive in a neighborhood of $0$. But now the mean value theorem applied to the $n$th coordinate of $gamma$ implies that $gamma(t)notin H$ for small $t$ with $t>0$.

                But I claim that is not. To see this, pick a $win T_f(p)$ which points outside of $N$. I claim there is no $vin T_p M$ with $d_p f(v) = w$.



                To see this, suppose there is such a $v$, choose a smooth path $gamma_v:(-epsilon,epsilon)rightarrow M$ with $gamma_v(0) = p$ and $gamma_v'(0) = v$. Then $fcircgamma$ is a smooth curve in $N$. By picking a chart near $f(p)$, we can view all this as happening in $mathbbR^n$.



                So, without loss of generality, we have a curve $gamma$ for which $gamma(0) = vec0in mathbbR^n$, $gammasubseteq H =(x_1,...,x_n)in mathbbR^n: x_nleq 0$, but $gamma'(0) notin H$. That is, the $n$th coordinate of $gamma'(0)$ is positive.



                Since $gamma$ is smooth, $gamma'$ is continuous, so the $n$-th coordinate of $gamma'(t)$ is positive in a neighborhood of $0$. But now the mean value theorem applied to the $n$th coordinate of $gamma$ implies that $gamma(t)notin H$ for small $t$ with $t>0$.

                The usual proof that neighborhoods that intersect $partialmathbbH$ are distinct from neighborhoods uses the local homology groups $H^ast(M,Msetminusp)$ for different choices of $p$. It has the advantage of showing that a homeomorphism must map boundary to boundary and interior to interior.



                But since you're asking about diffeomorphisms, we should be able to work less hard. So how about this?



                Suppose $f:Mrightarrow N$ is a diffeomorphism and that $pin operatornameint M$ and $f(p)in partial N$. Then $d_p f:T_p Mrightarrow T_f(p) N$ must be an isomorphism.
