Math Problem Statement

In the proof of 2nd one how g is bijective i understood how the have written but did not understood the concept of writing the last sentence

Solution

Let's analyze the proof you're asking about to understand the concept behind the last sentence.

Overview of the Problem

The second theorem in the notes seems to involve concepts from set theory, particularly related to bijections and infinite sets. The theorem can be roughly stated as:

  • Theorem: If AA is a set with nn elements (finite), and BB is an infinite set, then the set ABA \cup B (union of AA and BB) is also infinite.

Proof Outline

  1. Given:

    • AA is a finite set with nn elements.
    • BB is an infinite set.
  2. Claim: ABA \cup B is infinite.

  3. Construction of a Function:

    • Define a function g:BABg: B \rightarrow A \cup B which maps each element of BB to itself in ABA \cup B.
    • If the function gg is bijective, ABA \cup B is infinite.
  4. Last Sentence:

    • The proof concludes that gg is bijective, implying ABA \cup B is infinite.

Understanding the Last Sentence

The concept behind the last sentence revolves around the idea that since BB is infinite, and gg is defined such that it essentially maps elements of (
