Prove or disprove if a quotient map from X to Y with Y Hausdorff, then X is Hausdorff. [closed]

$begingroup$


For two open disjoint subsets U and V, I want to show their pre-images are disjoint open subsets of X or not. But I have no idea how to do it.



Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

This is not true. Map $mathbb R$ with the indiscrete topology to any one point set. The one point set is Hausdorff while $mathbb R$ under the indiscrete topology is not.

    It might be useful for some readers to point out that there's nothing special about $mathbb R$ here. Any set with at least two elements would work as well.
