Theorem
Let $S$ and $T$ be sets.
Let $f: S \to T$ be a mapping.
Let $S_1$ and $S_2$ be subsets of $S$.
Then:
- $f \sqbrk {S_1 \cap S_2} \subseteq f \sqbrk {S_1} \cap f \sqbrk {S_2}$
This can be expressed in the language and notation of direct image mappings as:
- $\forall S_1, S_2 \in \powerset S: \map {f^\to} {S_1 \cap S_2} \subseteq \map {f^\to} {S_1} \cap \map {f^\to} {S_2}$
Proof
\(\ds S_1 \cap S_2\) | \(\subseteq\) | \(\ds S_1\) | Intersection is Subset | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_1 \cap S_2}\) | \(\subseteq\) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_1}\) | Image of Subset under Mapping is Subset of Image |
\(\ds S_1 \cap S_2\) | \(\subseteq\) | \(\ds S_2\) | Intersection is Subset | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_1 \cap S_2}\) | \(\subseteq\) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_2}\) | Image of Subset under Mapping is Subset of Image |
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_1 \cap S_2}\) | \(\subseteq\) | \(\ds f \sqbrk {S_1} \cap f \sqbrk {S_2}\) | Intersection is Largest Subset |
