Definition:Bijection/Definition 4

Definition
A mapping $f \subseteq S \times T$ is a bijection iff:
 * for each $x \in S$ there exists one and only one $y \in T$ such that $\left({x, y}\right) \in f$.

Also known as
Hence the terminology:
 * If a bijection exists between two sets $S$ and $T$, then $S$ and $T$ are in one-to-one correspondence.

This must not be confused with one-to-one mapping, a less technical term for an injection.

Because of this confusion, it is recommended that the terms bijection and injection be used universally.
