Topological Spaces

Let $T_\alpha = \struct {S_\alpha, \tau_\alpha}$ and $T_\beta = \struct {S_\beta, \tau_\beta}$ be topological spaces.

Let $f: T_\alpha \to T_\beta$ be a bijection.


$f$ is a homeomorphism if and only if both $f$ and $f^{-1}$ are continuous.


Metric Spaces

The same definition applies to metric spaces:


Let $M_1 = \struct {A_1, d_1}$ and $M_2 = \struct {A_2, d_2}$ be metric spaces.

Let $f: A_1 \to A_2$ be a bijection such that:

$f$ is continuous from $M_1$ to $M_2$
$f^{-1}$ is continuous from $M_2$ to $M_1$.


Then:

$f$ is a homeomorphism
$M_1$ and $M_2$ are homeomorphic.
