Product of quotient map ando the identity is quotient map












0












$begingroup$


The following is an exercise in Tommo Tom Dieck's book "Algebriac Topology"



If $X$ is a topological space, $A$ is a compact subspace of $X$ ans $p:Xto X/A$ is the canonical quotient map then for any topological space $Y$ the product map $ptimes id_Y$ is a quotient map.



I need to prove It in order to demonstrate that $Sigma(Y)$, the reduced suspension, is the same than the smash product of $S^1$ and $Y$.



What I have done is try to prove that if $U$ is a subset such that $(ptimes id_Y)^{-1}$ is open, i.e., is in the form $bigcup_{iinalpha}O_itimes B_i$ then $Asubset bigcup_{iinalpha}O_i$, ando knowing that $A$ is compact this can be reduced yo a finite union.



I don't know how to proceed for now on.
It would be very useful if you could give me a hint.

    Use the fact f is a quotient iff for all V, (V is open iff $f^{-1}$(V) is open).

    Thanks William, that is what I am trying yo prove but It not clear for me, because for continuity one of the implication is clear, but the other one not.

    I first thought of the Whitehead theorem : The product of a quotient map and the identity on a locally compact space is a quotient map, but that's too restrictive, as we have general spaces here. So if its true it must lie in the simple nature of the quotient map.

Let $U subset X/A times Y$ be such that $(p times id)^{-1} (U)$ is open. We want to show $U$ is also open. For any $(x,y) in (p times id)^{-1} (U)$, there is open $U_0 subset X$ and open $V_0 subset Y$ such that $(x,y) in U_0 times V_0 subset (p times id)^{-1} (U)$. If $U_0$ doesn't intersect $A$, then $p(U_0)$ is open in $X /A$. If $U_0$ has an nonempty intersection with $A$, then $A times leftlbrace yrightrbrace$ is contained in $ (p times id)^{-1} (U)$. By compactness of $A$, there exist open neighborhood $U_1$ containing $A$ and $x$, and open $V_1$ containing $y$ such that $U_1 times V_1 subset (p times id)^{-1}(U)$. $p$ maps $U_1$ to an open set in $X /A$. This shows that $p times id$ is a quotient map.
