Original question and givens

Use the complete total map Fin(1)={0,…,0}→Fin(1) with images=[0] in source-index order. Validate every image in the declared codomain first. Equal finite cardinalities do not make the given map bijective. Give (images, bijectivity, inverse table or not-an-inverse-function, g∘f values or not-evaluated, f∘g values or not-evaluated). Do not confuse inverse functions with reciprocal function values.

  • G001 — Use the complete total map Fin(1)={0,…,0}→Fin(1) with images=[0] in source-index order. Validate every image in the declared codomain first.

Do not confuse inverse functions with reciprocal function values.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

n=1;m=1;images=[0]

After

complete typed total map;inverse is not reciprocal

Conditions: none

Validate the whole original total table first.Equal finite cardinalities do not ensure this particular table is bijective,and a zero function value does not prohibit an inverse.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_typed_map_scope · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

target=0;original images=[0]

After

fiber=[0];unique=Yes

Conditions: none

Scan every original input and list all preimages of this declared target.An empty or multiple-preimage fiber cannot supply a cell of a total inverse.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_complete_target_fiber · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · implies

Before

n=1;m=1;fibers=[[0]]

After

bijective=Yes

Conditions: none

For the already total map,exactly one preimage per codomain target is equivalent to bijectivity.The empty-to-empty map qualifies;checking n=m alone is insufficient.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_bijection_gate · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · implies

Before

unique fibers=[[0]]

After

inverse table=[0]

Conditions: none

Construct the inverse table in codomain order from each target's unique preimage.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: construct_inverse_only_after_bijection · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · implies

Before

gof:input=0;f(input)=0;g=[0]

After

g(f(input))=0;identity target=0;matches=Yes

Conditions: none

Follow f to a codomain label,then read the typed g table.This direction has a different domain from the other composition.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_composition_lookup · Uses: G001, S004

S006 · implies

Before

fog:input=0;g(input)=0;f=[0]

After

f(g(input))=0;identity target=0;matches=Yes

Conditions: none

Start the reverse composition independently at every original codomain target;g∘f values cannot replace f∘g values.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_composition_lookup · Uses: G001, S005

S007 · implies

Before

gof=[0];fog=[0]

After

left identity=Yes;right identity=Yes

Conditions: none

Check each identity over its own complete index set.A one-sided identity does not imply the other;conditions over an empty index set are true.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: inverse_two_identities_separate · Uses: G001, S006

Reverse checks

  • S007 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S006 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

([0], Yes, [0], [0], [0])

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
