Characterization for Topological Evaluation Mapping to be Embedding/Necessary Condition

Theorem
Let $X$ be a topological space.

Let $\family {Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$ be an indexed family of topological spaces for some indexing set $I$.

Let $\family {f_i : X \to Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$ be an indexed family of continuous mappings.

Let $\ds Y = \prod_{i \mathop \in I} Y_i$ be the product space of $\family {Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$.

Let $f : X \to Y$ be the evaluation mapping defined by:
 * $\forall x \in X : \map f x = \family{\map {f_i} x}_{i \mathop \in I}$

Let $f$ be an embedding

Then:
 * $(1)\quad$ the topology on $X$ is the initial topology with respect to $\family {f_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$
 * $(2)\quad$ the family $\family {f_i}$ separates points

$(1)$ The Topology on $X$ is the Initial Topology
Let $f \sqbrk X$ denote the image of $f$.

Let $\tau_{f \sqbrk X}$ be the subspace topology on $f \sqbrk X$.

By definition of embedding:
 * $f$ is a homeomorphism between $X$ and $f \sqbrk X$

From User:Leigh.Samphier/Topology/Subspace of Product Space has Initial Topology with respect to Restricted Projections:
 * $\tau_{f \sqbrk X}$ is the initial topology on $f \sqbrk X$ with respect to the mappings $\family {\pr_i \restriction_{f \sqbrk X} : f \sqbrk X \to Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$

Let $\tau$ be the topology on $X$.

From User:Leigh.Samphier/Topology/Homeomorphic Topology of Initial Topology is Initial Topology:
 * $\tau$ is the initial topology on $X$ with respect to $\family {\pr_i \restriction_{f \sqbrk X} \circ f : X \to Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$

We have:

From Equality of Mappings:
 * $\forall i \in I: \pr_i \restriction_{f \sqbrk X} \circ f = f_i$

Hence:
 * $\tau$ is the initial topology on $X$ with respect to $\family {f_i : X \to Y_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$

$(2)$ The Family $\family {f_i}$ Separates Points
By definition of embedding:
 * $f$ is a homeomorphism between $X$ and $f \sqbrk X$

By definition of homeomorphism:
 * $f$ is an injection

From User:Leigh.Samphier/Topology/Evaluation Map is Injective iff Mappings Separate Points:
 * the family $\family {f_i}$ separates points.
