Re: Topology with locally connected and f(X).

f : X -> Y is continuous.

X is a locally connected space.

Then f(X) is locally connected space.

I think...wrong problem.

Counter example.

f:Z+ -> { 0, 1/n | n in N }
f(n) = 1/n; f(0) = 0

Maybe, I need a condition that f is open map.

Counter example. f:R -> Q + {a}, f(R) = {a}
where + is the disjoint sum of Q and {a}.

My thinking is right ?

If y = f(x) in open V subset Y, then
x in f^-1(y) subset open f^-1(V)
some open connected U with x in U subset f^-1(V)

and so forth...
