LeanPool.ClassificationOfSurfaces.Moise.NoRetraction

The disk has no retraction onto its boundary #

This is Moise, Chapter 4, Problem 2 (proved as Theorem 10.10 later in the book). We use the covering map Circle.exp : ℝ → S¹: a map from the contractible closed disk to the circle lifts to ℝ, whereas its restriction to the boundary cannot be the identity because the standard boundary loop has lifts whose endpoints differ by 2π.

The complex closed unit disk, used only as the standard model for the no-retraction argument.

Equations
Instances For

    The closed disk does not retract continuously onto its boundary circle.

    The Euclidean plane and the complex plane are linearly isometric, using the orthonormal basis (1, I) of ℂ over ℝ.

    Equations
    Instances For

      The closed unit ball in the project's Euclidean plane does not retract onto its sphere.

      Retractions are invariant under an ambient homeomorphism carrying both the disk and its boundary to the target disk and boundary.

      A nondegenerate closed plane triangle has no continuous retraction onto its frontier.

      Radial projection from an interior point of a bounded convex plane set retracts the punctured plane onto the set's frontier. The Minkowski gauge supplies the distance to the frontier along each ray.
