2: Proof


Whole Strategy: do it in the 2 parts: the 1st part: \(M_2\) has the empty boundary; the 2nd part: \(M_2\) has a nonempty boundary; Step 1: suppose that \(M_2\) has the empty boundary; Step 2: around each \(m \in M_1\), take a chart, \((U_m \subseteq M_1, \phi_m)\), and a chart, \((U_{f (m)} \subseteq M_2, \phi_{f (m)})\), such that \(\widehat{f} := \phi_{f (m)} \circ f \circ {\phi_m}^{-1}\) is \(: (x^1, ..., x^{d_1}) \mapsto (x^1, ..., x^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0)\); Step 3: let \(\pi_1: T M_1 \to M_1\) and \(\pi_2: T M_2 \to M_2\) be the projections; take the induced charts, \(({\pi_1}^{-1} (U_m) \subseteq T M_1, \widetilde{\phi_m})\) and \(({\pi_2}^{-1} (U_{f (m)}) \subseteq T M_2, \widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}})\), and see that \(\widehat{d f} := \widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}} \circ d f \circ {\widetilde{\phi_m}}^{-1}\) is \(: (v^1, ..., v^k, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}) \mapsto (v^1, ..., v^k, 0, ..., 0, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0)\); Step 4: see that \(d f\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion; Step 5: suppose that \(M_2\) has a nonempty boundary; Step 6: take the double of \(M_2\), \(D (M_2)\), let \(\widetilde{M_2} \subseteq D (M_2)\) be a regular domain diffeomorphic to \(M_2\), with a diffeomorphism, \(g: M_2 \to \widetilde{M_2}\), let \(\widetilde{\iota}: \widetilde{M_2} \to D (M_2)\) be the inclusion, take \(h := \widetilde{\iota} \circ g \circ f\), apply the 1st part conclusion to see that \(d h\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion, and see that \(d f\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion.

Step 1:

Le us suppose that \(M_2\) has the empty boundary.

Step 2:

Around each \(m \in M_1\), let us take a chart, \((U_m \subseteq M_1, \phi_m)\), and a chart, \((U_{f (m)} \subseteq M_2, \phi_{f (m)})\), such that \(f (U_m) \subseteq U_{f (m)}\) and \(\widehat{f} := \phi_{f (m)} \circ f \circ {\phi_m}^{-1}: \phi_m (U_m) \to \phi_{f (m)} (U_{f (m)})\), the coordinates function of \(f\), is \(: (x^1, ..., x^{d_1}) \mapsto (x^1, ..., x^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0)\), which is possible by the rank theorem for \(C^\infty\) immersion (which requires \(M_2\) to be without boundary, which is the reason why we have made the supposition of Step 1).

Step 3:

Let \(\pi_1: T M_1 \to M_1\) and \(\pi_2: T M_2 \to M_2\) be the projections.

Let us take the induced charts, \(({\pi_1}^{-1} (U_m) \subseteq T M_1, \widetilde{\phi_m})\) and \(({\pi_2}^{-1} (U_{f (m)}) \subseteq T M_2, \widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}})\).

It is a well-known fact that \(\widehat{d f} := \widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}} \circ d f \circ {\widetilde{\phi_m}}^{-1}: \widetilde{\phi_m} ({\pi_1}^{-1} (U_m)) \to \widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}} ({\pi_2}^{-1} (U_{f (m)}))\) is \(: (v^1, ..., v^{d_1}, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}) \mapsto (v^1, ..., v^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0)\): the components, \((v^1, ..., v^{d_1})\), are mapped to \((\partial_j \widehat{f}^1 v^j, ..., \partial_j \widehat{f}^{d_2} v^j)\), but \(\widehat{f}^j = x^j\) for each \(1 \le j \le d_1\) and \(\widehat{f}^j = 0\) for each \(d_1 + 1 \le j \le d_2\).

So, \(d f\) is \(C^\infty\).

Step 4:

Let \(\pi'_1: T T M_1 \to T M_1\) and \(\pi'_2: T T M_2 \to T M_2\) be the projections.

There are the induced charts, \(({\pi'_1}^{-1} ({\pi_1}^{-1} (U_m)) \subseteq T T M_1, \widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_m}})\) and \(({\pi'_2}^{-1} ({\pi_2}^{-1} (U_{f (m)})) \subseteq T T M_2, \widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}}})\).

It is a well-known fact that \(\widehat{d d f} := \widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}}} \circ d d f \circ {\widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_m}}}^{-1}: \widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_m}} ({\pi'_1}^{-1} ({\pi_1}^{-1} (U_m))) \to \widetilde{\widetilde{\phi_{f (m)}}} ({\pi'_2}^{-1} ({\pi_2}^{-1} (U_{f (m)})))\) is \(: (w^1, ..., w^{2 d_1}, v^1, ..., v^{d_1}, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}) \mapsto (w^1, ..., w^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0, w^{d_1 + 1}, ..., w^{2 d_1}, 0, ..., 0, v^1, ..., v^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0, x^1, ..., x^{d_1}, 0, ..., 0)\): the components, \((w^1, ..., w^{2 d_1})\), are mapped to \((\partial_j \widehat{d f}^1 w^j, ..., \partial_j \widehat{d f}^{2 d_2} w^j)\) where \(\partial_j\) s for \(1 \le j \le d_1\) are by \(v^j\) s and \(\partial_j\) s for \(d_1 + 1 \le j \le 2 d_1\) are by \(x^{j - d_1}\) s, but \(\widehat{d f}^j = v^j\) for each \(1 \le j \le d_1\), \(\widehat{d f}^j = 0\) for each \(d_1 + 1 \le j \le d_2\), \(\widehat{d f}^j = x^{j - d_2}\) for each \(d_2 + 1 \le j \le d_2 + d_1\), and \(\widehat{d f}^j = 0\) for each \(d_2 + d_1 + 1 \le j \le 2 d_2\).

That is obviously injective.

So, \(d f\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion.

Step 5:

Let us suppose that \(M_2\) has a nonempty boundary.

Step 6:

Let us take the double of \(M_2\), \(D (M_2)\).

\(D (M_2)\) is a \(C^\infty\) manifold without boundary that has a regular domain, \(\widetilde{M_2}\), that is diffeomorphic to \(M_2\).

Let a diffeomorphism be \(g: M_2 \to \widetilde{M_2}\).

Let \(\widetilde{\iota}: \widetilde{M_2} \to D (M_2)\) be the inclusion, which is a \(C^\infty\) immersion (in fact, a \(C^\infty\) embedding), because \(\widetilde{M_2}\) is an embedded submanifold (in fact, a regular domain) of \(D (M_2)\).

Let us think of \(h: M_1 \to D (M_2) = \widetilde{\iota} \circ g \circ f: M_1 \to M_2 \to \widetilde{M_2} \to D (M_2)\).

\(h\) is \(C^\infty\), by the proposition that for any maps between any arbitrary subsets of any \(C^\infty\) manifolds with boundary \(C^k\) at corresponding points, where \(k\) includes \(\infty\), the composition is \(C^k\) at the point.

\(h\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion, because \(d h = d \widetilde{\iota} \circ d g \circ d f\) and \(d f\), \(d g\), and \(d \widetilde{\iota}\) are injective.

By the 1st part conclusion, \(d h = d \widetilde{\iota} \circ d g \circ d f\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion, which means that \(d d h = d d \widetilde{\iota} \circ d d g \circ d d f\) is injective on each fiber.

Then, \(d d f\) is injective on each fiber, because otherwise, the 2 vectors that were mapped to the same vector under \(d d f\) would not be mapped to any different vectors under \(d d h\).

So, \(d f\) is a \(C^\infty\) immersion.
