May 14, 2015 · An injective function (a.k.a one-to-one function) is a function for which every element of the range of the function corresponds to exactly one element of the domain. What this means is that it never maps distinct elements of its domain to the same element of its codomain.

$\begingroup$ "That is to say, each element in the codomain is the image of exactly one element in the domain." ." This is false in general for injective funct

Oct 26, 2014 · An example of an injective function $\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ that is not surjective is $\operatorname{h}(x)=\operatorname{e}^x$. This "hits" all of the positive reals, but misses zero and all of the negative reals. But the key point is the the definitions of injective and surjective depend almost completely on the choice of range and domain.

Mar 30, 2020 · Right now I'm having trouble coming up with examples that would not contradict what I proved. If the function is going from A to A, then the cardinality of the domain and codomain are the same, and if it is either surjective or injective, then wouldn't it have to also be injective or surjective, respectively?

Sep 25, 2015 · A function is invertible if and only if it is bijective (i.e. both injective and surjective). Injectivity is a necessary condition for invertibility but not sufficient.
