Homeomorphism between region above parabola and $ mathbb R ^2$












0












$begingroup$



Define the set $ X = { (x,y) in mathbb R ^2 : x^2 < y }. $
Construct a homeomorphism between $ X $ and $ mathbb R ^2 $.




Graphically, $ X $ is the region above the parabola $y = x^2$, not including the boundary lines. Since it's contained entirely in the upper half plane, I thought of trying something involving logarithms and considered $Phi: X to mathbb R ^2, ; (x,y) to (x, ln sqrt y)$. As it stands, $f$ is injective and also continuous as the composition of continuous maps on the domain of definition but I wasn't able to show surjectivity. For any $ (x,y) in mathbb R ^2 $ we have $(x,y) = Phi (x, e^{2y} ) $, but the latter isn't necessarily contained in $X$ so I'm not sure how to proceed (or even if this kind of function is the right form to be considering).

          You can do it in two steps:




          1. Consider the map$$begin{array}{rccc}psicolon&X&longrightarrow&mathbb{R}^2\&(x,y)&mapsto&(x,y-x^2).end{array}$$Then $psi$ is a homeomorphism from $X$ onto $mathbb{R}times(0,infty)$.

          2. Now, define a homeomorphism from $mathbb{R}times(0,infty)$ onto $mathbb{R}^2$ and compose both homeomorphisms.
