Open Mapping is not necessarily Closed Mapping

Theorem
Let $T_1 = \struct {S_1, \tau_1}$ and $T_2 = \struct {S_2, \tau_2}$ be topological spaces.

Let $f: T_1 \to T_2$ be a mapping which is not a bijection.

Let $f$ be an open mapping.

Then it is not necessarily the case that $f$ is also a closed mapping.

Proof
Note that if $f$ is a bijection, the result Bijection is Open iff Closed applies.

It is to be shown that if $f$ is not a bijection, this is not necessarily the case.

This is achieved by Proof by Counterexample:

Let $\struct {\R^2, d}$ be the real number plane with the usual (Euclidean) topology.

Let $\rho: \R^2 \to \R$ be the first projection on $\R^2$ defined as:
 * $\forall \tuple{x, y} \in \R^2: \map \rho {x, y} = x$

From Projection on Real Euclidean Plane is Open Mapping, $\rho$ is an open mapping.

From closed mapping.

The result is apparent.
