What does the inverse function theorem guarantee for a smooth map with invertible Jacobian?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • A. That the map is locally a diffeomorphism

Explanation

The inverse function theorem ensures that a smooth map with invertible differential is locally a diffeomorphism.

Review the concept: Smooth diffeomorphic deformation

A smooth diffeomorphic deformation \(\varphi\) is a bijective, smooth transformation whose inverse is also smooth.

\[\varphi^{-1}\text{ is smooth}\]
