Let X, Y and Z be sets. Let f : X → Y and g : Y → Z functions. (a) (3 Pts.) Show that if g ◦ f is an injective function, then f is an injective function. (b) (2 Pts.) Find examples of sets X, Y and Z and functions f : X → Y and g : Y → Z such that g ◦ f is injective but g is not injective. (c) (3 Pts.) Show that if g ◦ f is a surjective function, then g is a surjective function. (d) (2 Pts.) Find examples of sets X, Y and Z and functions f : X → Y and g : Y → Z such that g ◦ f is surjective but f is not injective.

Let f:A→B and g:B→C be maps. Prove that if g◦f is a bijection, then f is injective and g is surjective.*You may not use, without proof, the result that if g◦f is surjective then g is surjective, and if g◦f is injective then f is injective. In fact, doing so would result in circular logic.

For an abelian group G, let tG = {x E G: x has finite order} denote its torsion subgroup. Show that t defines a functor Ab -> Ab if one defines t(f) = f|tG (f restricted on tG) for every homomorphism f. If f is injective, then t(f) is injective. Give an example of a surjective homomorphism f for which t(f) is not surjective.
