Question
Show that the continuous image of a disconnected set may be connected. Show that this can happen even if f is a bijection.Explanation / Answer
Consider the set f : R-{0}->R So R-{0} is disconnected define f(x) = |x| So range of f is [0, infinity) which is connected. f : R-[-1, 0) -> R a disconnected set Now f is a bijection f(x) = log (1 + x) when x >= 0 .. This covers from [0, infinity) f(x) = -x+1 where x lies in (-infinity, -1) This covers from (-infinity, 0) So this is a bijection and from a disconnected set to a connected set.
