I was reading the notion of quotient map, topology and space but ran into the following example.enter image description here



In this example I have understood almost everything except one moment: How to prove rigorously that $p(x)$ is closed map.



Would be thankful if anyone will show the rigorous proof.

  • It's obvious that both subfunctions of $p(x)$ are closed maps. Proving that the whole function is closed is simply a generalization of that.

Any closed sunset of $[0,1] cup [2,3]$ is compact. Since $p$ is continuous its image is compact, hence closed.

    If you want to do it from scratch, note that $f:xmapsto x$ and $g:xmapsto x-1$ are closed maps on $mathbb R$ (this is easy to prove).



    Let $C$ be closed in $X$, so there is a closed set $C'subseteq mathbb R$ such that



    $Xcap C'=[0,1]cap C'sqcup [2,3]cap C'=C.$ Then,



    $p(C)=f([0,1]cap C'))sqcup g([2,3]cap C'))=$



    $[0,1]cap C'sqcup [1,2]cap g(C')=[0,2]cap (C'cup g(C'))$.



    Since $C'$ is closed in $mathbb R$ by assumption and $g(C')$ is closed in $mathbb R$ also, by the first remark, we conclude that $p(C)=[0,2]cap (C'cup g(C'))$ is closed in $Y$.

              $p(C)=f([0,1]cap C'))sqcup g([2,3]cap C'))=$



              $[0,1]cap C'sqcup [1,2]cap g(C')=[0,2]cap (C'cup g(C'))$.



              Since $C'$ is closed in $mathbb R$ by assumption and $g(C')$ is closed in $mathbb R$ also, by the first remark, we conclude that $p(C)=[0,2]cap (C'cup g(C'))$ is closed in $Y$.
