## [Injectivity and distinct inputs](/en/mko/mko-injective/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

Injectivity requires distinct permitted inputs to have distinct outputs; it does not require coverage of the whole codomain.

[Related questions](/en/explore/?mko=mko-injective) [Concept guides](/en/derivations/?q=mko-injective)


- Stage 3 · optional



## [Surjectivity and codomain coverage](/en/mko/mko-surjective/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

Surjectivity requires a permitted preimage for every codomain element; an output may have several preimages.

[Related questions](/en/explore/?mko=mko-surjective) [Concept guides](/en/derivations/?q=mko-surjective)


- Stage 4 · optional



## [Bijectivity and unique preimages](/en/mko/mko-bijective/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

A bijection is both injective and surjective; equivalently, every codomain element has exactly one permitted preimage.

- Stage 5 · optional



## [Inverse functions of bijections](/en/mko/mko-inverse-function/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

For a bijection f:A→B, an inverse g:B→A restores values in both directions; exchanging a table is not an unconditional inverse construction.

## [Real random variables on finite sample spaces](/en/mko/mko-random-variable/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

A random variable in a finite model is a total function from elementary outcomes to real numbers, distinct from an outcome or its probability weight.

Finite expectation is the weighted sum of random-variable values under a valid probability law; linearity does not require independence.

- Stage 8 · optional



## [Variance in finite probability models](/en/mko/mko-variance/?from=%2Fen%2Fpaths%2Fpath-pulse-foundations-20261005%2F%3Ffrom%3D%252Fen%252Fpaths%252F)

This entry defines variance as E[(X−E[X])²], distinct from sample variance with an n−1 denominator. Zero-weight outliers do not affect it.
