Monomorphism Image is Isomorphic to Domain

Theorem
The image of a monomorphism is isomorphic to its domain.

That is, if $\phi: S_1 \to S_2$ is a monomorphism, then:
 * $\phi: S_1 \to \Img \phi$

is an isomorphism.

Proof
Let $\struct {S_1, \circ_1}$ and $\struct {S_2, \circ_2}$ be closed algebraic structures.

Let $\phi$ be a monomorphism from $\struct {S_1, \circ_1}$ to $\struct {S_2, \circ_2}$.

Let $T = \Img \phi$ be the image of $\phi$.

By Morphism Property Preserves Closure, $\struct {T, \circ_2}$ is closed.

As $\phi$ is a monomorphism, it is by definition an injective homomorphism.

From Restriction of Injection is Injection, $\phi: S_1 \to \Img \phi$ is an injection.

From Surjection iff Image equals Codomain, $\phi: S_1 \to \Img \phi$ is a surjection.

Thus $\phi \to \Img \phi$ is by definition a bijection.

Thus $\phi: S_1 \to \Img \phi$ is a bijective homomorphism.

Hence, by definition, $\phi: S_1 \to \Img \phi$ is an isomorphism.
