Given two topological spaces with X={d,e,f} and Y = {d, 2,3,8}. Explain why they are not homeomorphic.
A function f from topological space X to other topological space Y is called homeomorphisms if f is continuous, one one, onto with continuous inverse.
Here X={d,e,f} and Y={d,2,3,8}.
X has 3 elements and Y has 4 elements.
Therefore, there does not exist any map between X and Y which is both one one and onto.
Because for a function to be one one and onto, both the spaces should have same cardinality.
Therefore, topological spaces with X and Y are not homeomorphic.
