释义

a surjection between finite sets of the same cardinality is bijective


Theorem.

Let A and B be finite setsMathworldPlanetmath of the same cardinality. If f:AB is a surjection then f is a bijection.

Proof.

Let A and B be finite sets with |A|=|B|=n. Let C={f-1({b})bB}. Then CA, so |C|n. Since f is a surjection,|f-1({b})|1 for each bB. The sets inC are pairwise disjoint because f is a function; therefore, n|C| and

|C|=bB|f-1({b})|.

In the last equation, n has been expressed asthe sum of n positive integers; thus |f-1({b})|=1 for each bB, so f is injectivePlanetmathPlanetmath.∎
