Transcribed Image Text:**Definition.** Let \( X \) and \( Y \) be topological spaces. A function or map \( f: X \rightarrow Y \) is a continuous function or continuous map if and only if for every open set \( U \) in \( Y \), \( f^{-1}(U) \) is open in \( X \).
**Theorem 7.1.** Let \( X \) and \( Y \) be topological spaces, and let \( f: X \rightarrow Y \) be a function. Then the following are equivalent:
1. The function \( f \) is continuous.
2. For every closed set \( K \) in \( Y \), the inverse image \( f^{-1}(K) \) is closed in \( X \).
3. For every limit point \( p \) of a set \( A \) in \( X \), the image \( f(p) \) belongs to the closure of \( f(A) \).
4. For every \( x \in X \) and open set \( V \) containing \( f(x) \), there is an open set \( U \) containing \( x \) such that \( f(U) \subseteq V \).
**Theorem 7.2.** Let \( X, Y \) be topological spaces and \( y_0 \in Y \). The constant map \( f: X \rightarrow Y \) defined by \( f(x) = y_0 \) is continuous.
