# Math4202 Topology II (Lecture 17)

### Fundamental group of the circle
Recall from previous lecture, we have unique lift for covering map.
#### Lemma for unique lifting homotopy for covering map
Let $p: E\to B$ be a covering map, and $e_0\in E$ and $p(e_0)=b_0$. Let $F:I\times I\to B$ be continuous with $F(0,0)=b_0$. There is a unique lifting of $F$ to a continuous map $\tilde{F}:T\times I\to E$, such that $\tilde{F}(0,0)=e_0$.
Further more, if $F$ is a path homotopy, then $\tilde{F}$ is a path homotopy.
#### Theorem for induced homotopy for fundamental groups
Suppose $f,g$ are two paths in $B$, and suppose $f$ and $g$ are path homotopy ($f(0)=g(0)=b_0$, and $f(1)=g(1)=b_1$, $b_0,b_1\in B$), then $\hat{f}:\pi_1(B,b_0)\to \pi_1(B,b_1)$ and $\hat{g}:\pi_1(B,b_0)\to \pi_1(B,b_1)$ are path homotopic.
<details>
<summary>Proof</summary>
Since $f,g$ are path homotopic, then there exists $F:I\times I\to B$ such that
$\hat{F}$ is a homotopy between $\hat{f}$ and $\hat{g}$, where $\hat{F}(s,0)=\hat{f}(s)$ and $\hat{F}(s,1)=\hat{g}(s)$.
</details>
#### Definition of lifting correspondence
Let $p: E\to B$ be a covering map, and $p^{-1}(b_0)\subseteq E$ be the fiber of $b_0$.
Let $[f]\in \pi_1(B,b_0)$, then define $\phi:\pi_1(E,b_0)\to p^{-1}(b_0)$ as follows:
$\phi([f])=\tilde{f}(1)$, and $\tilde{f}(0)=e_0$. Note that $p(\tilde{f}(1))=p(f(1))=b_0$.
<details>
<summary>Example</summary>
Let $E=\mathbb{R}$ and $B=S^1$. Then $p^{-1}(b_0)=\mathbb{Z}$.
</details>
#### Theorem for surjective lifting correspondence
Let $\phi:\pi_1(E,b_0)\to p^{-1}(b_0)$ be a lifting correspondence. If $E$ is path connected, then $\phi$ is surjective.
<details>
<summary>Proof</summary>
Consider $p^{-1}(b_0)=\{e_0,e_0',e_0'',\cdots\}$, take $\bar{e_0}\in p^{-1}(b_0)$, $E$ is path connected.
Since $E$ is path connected, then $\exists \tilde{f}:I\to E$ such that $\tilde{f}(0)=e_0$ and $\tilde{f}(1)=\bar{e_0}$.
Therefore $[f]\in \pi_1(B,b_0)$.
</details>
#### Theorem for bijective lifting correspondence
Let $\phi:\pi_1(E,b_0)\to p^{-1}(b_0)$ be a lifting correspondence.
If $E$ is simply connected, then $\phi$ is a bijection.
<details>
<summary>Proof</summary>
By previous theorem, it is sufficient to show that $\phi$ is one-to-one (i.e., $\phi$ is injective).
Suppose $\phi([f])=\phi([g])$, then $f,g\in \pi_1(E,b_0)$. So $\tilde{f},\tilde{g}:I\to E$ are path homotopic.
So $\exists \tilde{F}:I\times I\to E$ such that
- $\tilde{F}(s,0)=e_0$
- $\tilde{F}(s,1)=\bar{e_0}$
- $\tilde{F}(0,t)=\tilde{f}(t)$
- $\tilde{F}(1,t)=\tilde{g}(t)$
Define $F=p\circ \tilde{F}:I\times I\to B$, then
- $F(s,0)=p(e_0)=b_0$
- $F(s,1)=p(\bar{e_0})=b_0$
- $F(0,t)=f(t)$
- $F(1,t)=g(t)$
Therefore $[f]=[g]$, which shows that $\phi$ is a bijection.

#### Theorem for fundamental group for circle
Let $E=\mathbb{R}$ and $B=S^1$. Then $\phi:\pi_1(E,b_0)\to \pi_1(B,b_0)\simeq \mathbb{Z}$. is a isomorphism.
(fundamental group for circle is $\mathbb{Z}$)
<details>
<summary>Proof</summary>
Since $\mathbb{R}$ is simply connected, then $\phi$ is a bijection.
It is suffice to show that $\phi$ satisfies the definition of homomorphism. $\phi([f]*[g])=\phi([f])+\phi([g])$.
Suppose $f,g\in \pi_1(S^1,b_0)$, then $\exists \tilde{f},\tilde{g}:S^1\to \mathbb{R}$ such that $\phi([f])=n$, $\phi([g])=m$, then $\tilde{f}:S^1\to \mathbb{R}$ and $\tilde{g}:S^1\to \mathbb{R}$ such that
- $\tilde{f}(0)=0$
- $\tilde{f}(1)=n$
- $\tilde{g}(0)=0$
- $\tilde{g}(1)=m$
Take $\tilde{\tilde{g}}(x)=\tilde{g}(x)+n$, then $\phi([f]*[g])=\phi(\tilde{\tilde{g}})=m+n$.
