2: Natural Language Description


For any \(d_1\)-dimensional real vectors space, \(V_1\), with the canonical topology, any \(d_2\)-dimensional real vectors space, \(V_2\), with the canonical topology, the affine or convex set spanned by any possibly non-affine-independent set of base points on \(V_1\), \(S_1\), with the subspace topology, and any affine map, \(f: S_1 \to V_2\), \(f\) is continuous.


3: Proof


There is the affine-independent subset of the base points, \(\{p'_0, ..., p'_k\} \subseteq \{p_0, ..., p_n\}\), with which the affine map is defined (refer to a definition of affine map from affine set spanned by possibly-non-affine-independent set of base points on real vectors space or to a definition of affine map from convex set spanned by possibly-non-affine-independent set of base points on real vectors space), and \(f: \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j p'_j \mapsto \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j f (p'_j)\).

We are going to apply the proposition that any topological spaces map is continuous at any point if the spaces are the subspaces of some \(C^\infty\) manifolds and there are some charts of the manifolds around the point and the point image and a map between the chart open subsets which (the map) is restricted to the original map whose (the chart open subsets map's) coordinates function's restriction is continuous.

There are a basis of \(V_1\), \(\{p'_1 - p'_0, ..., p'_k - p'_0, v_{k + 1}, ..., v_{d_1}\}\), and the canonical chart, \((V_1 \subseteq V_1, \phi)\). Now, \(V_1\) is the \(C^\infty\) manifold, of which \(S_1\) is the topological subspace.

For each \(p \in S_1\), \(p = \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j p'_j = \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j (p'_j - p'_0) + \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j p'_0 = \sum_{j \in \{1, ..., k\}} t'^j (p'_j - p'_0) + p'_0\). \(\phi (p) = (t'^1 + {p'_0}^1, ..., t'^k + {p'_0}^k, {p'_0}^{k + 1}, ..., {p'_0}^{d_1})\), where \(\phi (p'_0) = ({p'_0}^1, ..., {p'_0}^{d_1})\).

There are a basis of \(V_2\), \(\{w_1, ..., w_{d_2}\}\), and the canonical chart, \((V_2 \subseteq V_2, \psi)\). Now, \(V_2\) is the \(C^\infty\) manifold.

\(\psi (\sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j f (p'_j)) = (\sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j q_j^1, ..., \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j q_j^{d_2})\), where \(\psi (f (p'_j)) = (q_j^1, ..., q_j^{d_2})\).

Let us think of the extension of \(f\), \(f': V_1 \to V_2, \sum_{j \in \{1, ..., k\}} t'^j (p'_j - p'_0) + p'_0 + \sum_{j \in \{k + 1, ..., d_1\}} t'^j v_j \mapsto \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j f (p'_j)\), where \(t'^j\) is extended to \((- \infty, \infty)\). \(f\) is indeed the restriction of \(f'\) on the domain, \(S_1\).

The coordinates function of \(f'\) with respect to the charts is, \(\psi \circ f \circ {\phi}^{-1}: \mathbb{R}^{d_1} \to \mathbb{R}^{d_2}, (t'^1 + {p'_0}^1, ..., t'^k + {p'_0}^k, t'^{k + 1} + {p'_0}^{k + 1}, ..., t'^{d_1} + {p'_0}^{d_1}) \mapsto (\sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j q_j^1, ..., \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} t'^j {q_j}^{d_2})\); taking \(t''^j := t'^j + {p'_0}^j\), it is \((t''^1, ..., t''^k, t''^{k + 1}, ..., t''^{d_1}) \mapsto (\sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} (t''^j - {p'_0}^j) {q_j}^1, ..., \sum_{j \in \{0, ..., k\}} (t''^j - {p'_0}^j) {q_j}^{d_2})\), which is continuous as it is linear. Then, also the restriction of the coordinates function, \(\psi \circ f \circ {\phi}^{-1} \vert_{\phi (V_1 \cap S_1)}\), is continuous, by the proposition that any restriction of any continuous map on the domain and the codomain is continuous.

So, by the proposition that any topological spaces map is continuous at any point if the spaces are the subspaces of some \(C^\infty\) manifolds and there are some charts of the manifolds around the point and the point image and a map between the chart open subsets which (the map) is restricted to the original map whose (the chart open subsets map's) coordinates function's restriction is continuous, \(f\) is continuous.
