The orbit quotient of a regular open map is homeomorphic to the base #
For a regular deck action, Deck.IsRegular.orbitQuotientEquivBase already identifies the
deck-orbit quotient E / deck p with the base B as a bare equivalence. This file upgrades
that equivalence to a homeomorphism when p is continuous and open.
This is the abstract form of the universal-covers identity UniversalCover x₀ / π₁(X, x₀) ≃ X,
stated for an arbitrary regular open map rather than the specific based-path cover. The
covering-map application supplies the continuity and openness hypotheses from
IsCoveringMap.continuous and IsCoveringMap.isOpenMap; the total space is not assumed
preconnected.
Main declarations #
TauCeti.Deck.continuous_orbitQuotientToBase: a continuous map induces a continuous mapE / deck p → B.TauCeti.Deck.isOpenMap_orbitQuotientToBase: that map is open.TauCeti.Deck.IsRegular.orbitQuotientHomeomorphBase: for a regular continuous open map,E / deck pis homeomorphic to the base.

UniversalCover x₀ / π₁(X, x₀) ≃ X follows from the deck-group identification via Mathlib's
IsQuotientCoveringMap; the present statement is its base-independent regular-cover form.
A continuous map induces a continuous map from the deck-orbit quotient to the base.
An open map induces an open map from the deck-orbit quotient to the base.
For a regular continuous open map, the deck-orbit quotient E / deck p is homeomorphic to
the base.

Instances For
On the underlying equivalence, the orbit-quotient homeomorphism is
orbitQuotientEquivBase.
The orbit-quotient homeomorphism evaluates on representatives by the projection map.
The inverse orbit-quotient homeomorphism sends a projected point to the class of any lift.
