I think this proof needs to explicitly mention that f is an injection in order to use the cantor bernstein lemma. I can make the appropriate changes (minor modifications) some time later.

I may be missing something but does it not already? Second line: "Let $f: S \to T$ and $g: T \to S$ be injections." --prime mover (talk) 13:52, 22 December 2016 (EST)
the injetion, f, is in the premises. but nowhere in the proof is f even mentioned let alone that it is an injection. I dont see how a legitimate proof can use only the injection g and not f. But I can see how to make a proof that uses f. Wanfactory (talk) 13:57, 22 December 2016 (EST)
I don't know, it wasn't my proof, it was posted up by someone who knew everything. --prime mover (talk) 14:21, 22 December 2016 (EST)
I think there is a problem and I think I know how to fix it with minor changes. Should I go ahead with that? Wanfactory (talk) 14:25, 22 December 2016 (EST)
Sure, see what you can do. --prime mover (talk) 14:50, 22 December 2016 (EST)
