Talk:Perfect map

Latest comment: 10 years ago by 89.77.121.156

I do not believe that 10 or 11 are true as they read. Counterexamples:

10. If F is a closed subspace of X, then the inclusion if F in X is perfect, but it is not a quotient map.

11. Let G=Z act on X=R by translations. Then the projection from R to R/Z is not perfect. (For example, the kernel is not compact...)


Actually, I believe 10 and 11 are correct.

Ad 10. The definition requires map to be surjective Ad 11. Z is not a compact group. --89.77.121.156 (talk) 21:53, 22 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
