Two Non empty set Room A and B There is corresponding relationship f , and for the every last There is always a unique element in element a and B An element of b Corresponding to it , which is the mapping from A to B, recorded as f: A → B. Where, b is called the image [1] , recorded as b=f (a). A is called b with respect to the mapping f Original image [1] The set of images of all elements in set A is called the range of mapping f, which is recorded as f (A). [2]
In other words, let A and B be two non empty sets. If according to a certain correspondence f, there is a unique element b in set B corresponding to any element a in set A, then corresponding f is called A → B, which is a mapping from set A to set B.
mapping , or Projective projection It is also used to define functions in mathematics and related fields. Function is derived from Nonempty number set The mapping to non empty number set can only be one-to-one mapping or many to one mapping.
mapping There are many names in different fields, and their essence is the same. Such as function, operator wait. It should be noted here that a function is a mapping between two sets of numbers, and other mappings are not functions. One-to-one mapping ( Birefringence )It is a special kind of mapping, that is, the unique correspondence between two set elements. Generally speaking, it is one to one( one-on-one )。
Note: (1) Different elements in A may not have different images in B; (2) Each element in B has a primitive image (i.e., surjection), and different elements in set A have different images (i.e., monomorphism) in set B, then mapping f establishes a One-to-one correspondence Relation, also called f, is a one-to-one mapping from A to B.

Conditions of establishment

edit
The conditions for mapping are simply stated as follows:
1. Define Fields Ergodicity of: each element x in X is mapped in the range There are corresponding objects in
2. Correspondence uniqueness: one element in the definition field can only correspond to one element in the mapping value field
The definition field is also called the original image set, and the value field is also called the image set.

Number relation

The number of elements of set AB is m, n,
Then, the number of mappings from set A to set B is
Function and mapping, full mapping and single mapping.
A function is a number set to number set mapping, and this mapping is "full".
That is, the full mapping f: A → B is a function, where the original image set A is called the definition domain of the function, and the image set B is called the value domain of the function.
"Number set" is a set of numbers, which can be integers, rational numbers, real numbers, complex numbers, or part of them.
"Mapping" is a broader mathematical concept than function, which is a certain correspondence between one set and another. That is, if f is a mapping from set A to set B, then for any element a in A, there is a unique element b corresponding to a in set B. We call a the original image and b the image. Writing f: A → B, the element relationship is b=f (a)
A mapping f: A → B is called "full", that is, all elements in B exist in A Original image
In the definition of function, it is not required to be a surjection, that is, the range of values should be B subset (This definition comes from the way in ordinary middle schools. In fact, many math books do not necessarily define functions as surjections.)
Image collection The mapping where every element in B has an original image is called surjection: that is, if any element y in B is an image in A, then f is called A to B Surjection , emphasizing that f (A)=B (the original image of B can be multiple)
The mapping of different images of different elements in the original image set is called monomorphism: if any two different elements in A x1 ≠ x2, their image f (x1) ≠ f (x2), then f is called monomorphism from A to B, emphasizing that f (A) is B subset
Single shot and full shot can be jointly determined as one-to-one double shot.

classification

edit
The different classifications of mapping are based on the mapping results from the following three perspectives:
1. Classification according to the geometric properties of the results: Surjection (up) and Non epimorphism Internal
2. Classification according to the analysis nature of the results: Monomorphism (11) and Non monomorphism
3. Consider both geometric and analytical properties: Full monomorphism One-to-one correspondence )。

In many specific mathematical fields, this term is used to describe functions with specific properties associated with this field, for example, in topology In continuous function linear algebra In linear transformation wait. stay formal logic The term is sometimes used to indicate Functional predicate (Functional predict), where the function is set theory in predicate Model of.
If two functions in the function definition aggregate from Non empty set Expand to arbitrarily The set of elements (not limited to numbers), we can get the concept of mapping: mapping is a special kind of mathematical description between two set elements corresponding A term for relationships.
according to mapping The following corresponding definitions are mapping
(1) Let A={1,2,3,4}, B={3,5,7,9}, aggregate The element x in A is multiplied by 2 plus 1 according to the corresponding relationship element Correspondence, this correspondence is the mapping of set A to set B.
(2) Let A=N *, B={0,1}, the elements in set A correspond to the elements in set B according to the corresponding relationship "the remainder obtained by dividing x by 2", which is the mapping of set A to set B.
(3) Let A={x | x be a triangle}, B={y | y>0}, and the element x in set A corresponds to the element in set B according to the corresponding relationship "calculation area", which is the mapping from set A to set B.
(4) Set A= R , B={point on the line}, according to the method of establishing the number axis, the number x in A corresponds to the point P in B, which is the mapping of set A to set B.
(5) Let A={P | P be a point} in a rectangular coordinate system, B={(x, y) | x ∈ R, y ∈ R}, according to the method of establishing a plane rectangular coordinate system, it is the point P in A and the point P in B Ordered real number For (x, y) correspondence, this correspondence is the mapping of set A to set B.
For "mapping" or "projection", you need to define the function of the projection rule part in advance before performing the operation. Therefore, "mapping" calculation can realize cross dimension correspondence. The corresponding calculus belongs to pure digital calculation, which cannot achieve cross dimensional correspondence. The use of differential simulation can achieve complex simulation within this dimension. Mapping can make corresponding approximation to multiple sets that are not related operation While calculus can only be performed in a large set of continuous correlations accurate Operation.
