I am reading Munkres book, "Topology" (Second Edition).

I need help with an aspect of Theorem 18.2 Part (f) concerning the inverse image of a set under the restriction of a function ...

Theorem 18.2 Part f reads as follows:View attachment 4194
View attachment 4195
View attachment 4196In the above text we read:

" ... ... Let $$V$$ be an open set in $$Y$$.

Then

$$f^{-1} (V) \cap U_{ \alpha } = {(f | U_{ \alpha }) }^{-1} (V)$$ ... ...

... ... "I would like to prove that:

$$f^{-1} (V) \cap U_{ \alpha } = { (f | U_{ \alpha }) }^{-1} (V)
$$... BUT ... cannot see how to do this ...Can someone please help ...

Hi Peter,

I will just write down what this sets are.

$f^{-1}(V)=\{x\in X \ : \ f(x)\in V \}$

$f^{-1}(V)\cap U_{\alpha}=\{x\in U_{\alpha} \ : \ f(x)\in V \}$

Did you see now why the equality holds?

Thanks for the help, Fallen Angel ...
 
Thread 'Derivation of equations of stress tensor transformation'
Hello ! I derived equations of stress tensor 2D transformation. Some details: I have plane ABCD in two cases (see top on the pic) and I know tensor components for case 1 only. Only plane ABCD rotate in two cases (top of the picture) but not coordinate system. Coordinate system rotates only on the bottom of picture. I want to obtain expression that connects tensor for case 1 and tensor for case 2. My attempt: Are these equations correct? Is there more easier expression for stress tensor...
