Meagre images in charts #
Whether the image of a set under a map between manifolds is meagre can be read in extended charts. This holds over any nontrivially normed field, for a target manifold without boundary, whose extended charts are then open partial homeomorphisms, so their inverses carry meagre sets to meagre sets.

TauCeti.isMeagre_image_of_isMeagre_image_extChartAt: if the coordinate expression offin a pair of extended charts sends the chart image of a setuin the chart sources to a meagre set, thenf '' uis meagre.TauCeti.isMeagre_image_of_forall_isMeagre_image_extChartAt: for a map continuous at the points of a LindelΓΆf sets, if this holds in the charts at eachx β sand atf xfor the points ofsin a neighbourhood ofx, thenf '' sis meagre.
Let u be a set in the source of the chart at xβ that f maps into the source of the chart
at yβ. If the coordinate expression extChartAt J yβ β f β (extChartAt I xβ).symm sends the
chart image of u to a meagre subset of the model of N, then f '' u is meagre. The target is
without boundary, so that its extended charts are open partial homeomorphisms.
Meagre images can be detected in charts. Let f be continuous at the points of a
LindelΓΆf set s. Suppose that each x β s has a neighbourhood V such that the coordinate
expression extChartAt J (f x) β f β (extChartAt I x).symm sends the chart image of the points of
s β© V lying in the two chart sources to a meagre subset of the model of N. Then f '' s is
meagre. The target is without boundary, so that its extended charts are open partial
homeomorphisms.
