Federer–Morse theorem
 | This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject. (March 2017) |
In mathematics, the Federer–Morse theorem, introduced by Federer and Morse (1943), states that if f is a surjective continuous map from a compact metric space X to a compact metric space Y, then there is a Borel subset Z of X such that f restricted to Z is a bijection from Z to Y. Moreover, the inverse of that restriction is a Borel section of f - it is a Borel isomorphism.[1]
