Proof. Proposition 12.1(b) shows that each covering automorphism restricts to a \( {\pi }_{1}\left( {X, x}\right) \) -automorphism of \( {q}^{-1}\left( x\right) \) . Since \( {\left. \left( {\varphi }_{1} \circ {\varphi }_{2}\right) \right| }_{{q}^{-1}\left( x\right) } = {\left. {\varphi }_{1}\right| }_{{q}^{-1}\left( ...

Proposition 12.1(a) shows that two covering automorphisms whose restrictions to \( {q}^{-1}\left( x\right) \) agree must be identical, so the restriction homomorphism is injective. To see that it is surjective, suppose \( \eta : {q}^{-1}\left( x\right) \rightarrow {q}^{-1}\left( x\right) \) is any \( {\pi }_{1}\left( {...
If \( {e}_{1} \) is any point in \( {q}^{-1}\left( x\right) \) and \( {e}_{2} = \eta \left( {e}_{1}\right) \), then the orbit criterion for \( G \) - automorphisms (Proposition 11.27) shows that the isotropy groups of \( {e}_{1} \) and \( {e}_{2} \) are the same. Since these isotropy groups are exactly \( {q}_{ * }{\pi...

Theorem 12.7 (Covering Automorphism Group Structure Theorem). Suppose \( q : E \rightarrow X \) is a covering map, \( e \in E \), and \( x = q\left( e\right) \) .

Then the quotient map \( q : E \rightarrow E/\Gamma \) is a covering map if and only if the action is a covering s...
Proof. Assume first that \( q \) is a covering map. Then the action of each \( g \in \Gamma \) is an automorphism of the covering, because it is a homeomorphism satisfying \( q\left( {g \cdot e}\right) = \) \( q\left( e\right) \), so we can identify \( \Gamma \) with a subgroup of \( {\operatorname{Aut}}_{q}\left( E\ri...

Proposition 12.15. Let \( \Gamma \) be a discrete subgroup of a connected and locally path-connected topological group \( G \) . Then the action of \( \Gamma \) on \( G \) by right translations is a covering space action, so the quotient map \( q : G \rightarrow G/\Gamma \) is a normal covering map.
Proof. Because \( \Gamma \) is discrete, there is a neighborhood \( V \) of 1 in \( G \) such that \( V \cap \) \( \Gamma = \{ 1\} \) . Consider the continuous map \( F : G \times G \rightarrow G \) given by \( F\left( {g, h}\right) = {g}^{-1}h \) . Since \( {F}^{-1}\left( V\right) \) is a neighborhood of \( \left( {1,...

Corollary 12.16. Suppose \( G \) and \( H \) are connected and locally path-connected topological groups, and \( \varphi : G \rightarrow H \) is a surjective continuous homomorphism with discrete kernel. If \( \varphi \) is an open or closed map, then it is a normal covering map.
Proof. Let \( \Gamma = \operatorname{Ker}\varphi \) . By the preceding proposition, the quotient map \( q : G \rightarrow \) \( G/\Gamma \) is a normal covering map. The assumption that \( \varphi \) is either open or closed implies that it is a quotient map, and by the first isomorphism theorem the identifications mad...

Proposition 12.23. Suppose we are given a continuous action of a topological group \( G \) on a Hausdorff space \( E \) . The action is proper if and only if for every compact subset \( K \subseteq E \), the set \( {G}_{K} = \{ g \in G : \left( {g \cdot K}\right) \cap K \neq \varnothing \} \) is compact.
Proof. Let \( \Theta : G \times E \rightarrow E \times E \) be the map defined by (12.5). Suppose first that \( \Theta \) is proper. Then for any compact set \( K \subseteq E \), we have\n\n\[{G}_{K} = \{ g \in G : \text{ there exists }e \in K\text{ such that }g \cdot e \in K\}\]\n\n\[= \{ g \in G : \text{ there exists...

Proposition 12.24. If a topological group \( G \) acts continuously and properly on a locally compact Hausdorff space \( E \), then the orbit space \( E/G \) is Hausdorff.
Proof. Let \( \mathcal{O} \subseteq E \times E \) be the orbit relation defined in Problem 3-22. By the result of that problem, the orbit space is Hausdorff if and only if \( \mathcal{O} \) is closed in \( E \times E \).

Proposition 12.25. Suppose we are given a covering space action of a group \( \Gamma \) on a topological space \( E \), and \( E/\Gamma \) is Hausdorff. Then with the discrete topology, \( \Gamma \) acts properly on \( E \) .
Proof. For convenience, write \( X = E/\Gamma \), and let \( q : E \rightarrow X \) be the quotient map, which is a normal covering map by the covering space quotient theorem. It follows from Proposition 3.57 and Problem 3-22 that the orbit relation \( \mathcal{O} \) defined by (3.6) is closed in \( E \times E \) . Als...

Proof. We need only show that the action is a covering space action, for then Proposition 12.24 shows that \( E/\Gamma \) is Hausdorff, and the covering space quotient theorem shows that \( q \) is a normal covering map.\n\nSuppose \( {e}_{0} \in E \) is arbitrary.

Example 12.28 (Lens Spaces).

Proof. Because \( {\mathbb{S}}^{2} \) is simply connected, it is its own universal covering space. It was shown in Example 11.42 that the universal covering space of \( {\mathbb{T}}^{2} \) is \( {\mathbb{R}}^{2} \), and that of \( {\mathbb{P}}^{2} \) is \( {\mathbb{S}}^{2} \) .

Since the image of any singular simplex must lie entirely in one path component, the chain maps \( {\left( {\iota }_{\alpha }\right) }_{\# } : {C}_{p}\left( {X}_{\alpha }\right) \rightarrow {C}_{p}\left( X\right) \) already induce isomorphisms\n\n\[ \n{\bigoplus }_{\alpha \in A}{C}_{p}\left( {X}_{\alpha }\right)...

Proposition 13.6 (Zero-Dimensional Homology). For any topological space \( X \) , \( {H}_{0}\left( X\right) \) is a free abelian group with basis consisting of an arbitrary point in each path component.
Proof. It suffices to show that \( {H}_{0}\left( X\right) \) is the infinite cyclic group generated by the class of any point when \( X \) is path-connected, for then in the general case Proposition 13.5 guarantees that \( {H}_{0}\left( X\right) \) is the direct sum of infinite cyclic groups, one for each path componen...

Proposition 13.7 (Homology of a Discrete Space). If \( X \) is a discrete space, then \( {H}_{0}\left( X\right) \) is a free abelian group with one generator for each point of \( X \), and \( {H}_{p}\left( X\right) = 0 \) for \( p > 0 \) .
Proof. The case \( p = 0 \) follows from the preceding proposition, so we concentrate on \( p > 0 \) . By Proposition 13.5, it suffices to show that \( {H}_{p}\left( *\right) = 0 \) when \( * \) is a one-point space. In that case, there is exactly one singular simplex in each dimension, namely the constant map \( {\sig...

Proof. We must show there is a singular 2-chain whose boundary is the 1-chain \( {f}_{0} - {f}_{1} \) . Let \( H : {f}_{0} \sim {f}_{1} \), and let \( b : I \times I \rightarrow {\Delta }_{2} \) be the map\n\n\[ b\left( {x, y}\right) = \left( {x - {xy},{xy}}\right) ,\]\n\n(13.7)\n\nwhich maps the square onto the triang...

Lemma 2. If \( \left( {\alpha }^{\prime }\right) \prec \left( \alpha \right) \), but \( \left( {\alpha }^{\prime }\right) \) is not identical with \( \left( \alpha \right) \), then \( \left( {\alpha }^{\prime }\right) \) can be derived from \( \left( \alpha \right) \) by the successive application of a finite number of...
Proof of Lemma 2. We suppose that the condition (2.18.2) is satisfied, and call the number of the differences \( {\alpha }_{\nu } - {\alpha }_{\nu }{}^{\prime } \) which are not zero the discrepancy of \( \left( \alpha \right) \) and \( \left( {\alpha }^{\prime }\right) \) ; if the discrepancy is zero the sets are iden...

Theorem 1 (General solution theorem) Consider the linear ODE (2.27) with \( p\left( t\right) \) and \( q\left( t\right) \) continuous on some interval containing \( {t}_{0} \) . Let\n\n\[ P\left( t\right) = {\int }_{{t}_{0}}^{t}p\left( r\right) {dr},\;R\left( t\right) = {\int }_{{t}_{0}}^{t}{e}^{P\left( s\right) }q\lef...
Note that one important consequence of this theorem is that every solution of the ODE exists at least in the interval in which \( p\left( t\right) \) and \( q\left( t\right) \) are continuous. Another important consequence is that no two solutions corresponding to different values of \( K \) can ever intersect.\n\nWhy?...

Proof Suppose \( \left\{ {{\mathbf{v}}_{1},\ldots ,{\mathbf{v}}_{k}}\right\} \) is not linearly independent (i.e., linearly dependent), then there exists some \( p \) such that \( {\mathbf{v}}_{p} \) is a linear combination of the eigenvectors \( \left\{ {{\mathbf{v}}_{1},\ldots ,{\mathbf{v}}_{p - 1}}\right\} \), with ...

Proof The two integral equalities are obtained by integration by parts; see [53, Chap. 6].
