Basic results on fundamental groupoids and fundamental groups #
This file records a basic connectedness result for fundamental groupoids and when a map induced on fundamental groups is trivial: a characterization of trivial range loop by loop, and the basic consequences of triviality of the source fundamental group.
TauCeti.FundamentalGroup.map_range_eq_bot_iff was extracted from the proof of
semilocallySimplyConnectedAt_iff_range_eq_bot in
TauCeti/AlgebraicTopology/SemilocallySimplyConnected/On.lean, which is adapted from the Mathlib
drafts #31449,
#31576, and
#38292 by Kim Morrison, for
Stage 0.1 of the TauCetiRoadmap/UniversalCovers roadmap.

In the fundamental groupoid of a path-connected space every object receives a morphism from every other one, so the groupoid is connected.
Mapping a loop class represented by a path is represented by mapping that path.
The induced map is trivial exactly loop by loop. The map on fundamental groups induced by
f has trivial range if and only if every loop at the basepoint becomes nullhomotopic after
applying f.
If the source fundamental group is subsingleton, the range of any induced map from it is trivial.
A simply connected domain has trivial induced fundamental-group range.
If the source fundamental group is subsingleton, its induced-map range lies in any target subgroup.
If the source fundamental group is subsingleton, the range of the induced map transported to a prescribed target basepoint is trivial.
A simply connected domain has induced fundamental-group range contained in any target subgroup.
