First, the easiest case, where the input set is $\{1\}$. + Then, $f(x) = 1 \forall x$, so $f$ is injective. + + For the case where $x \in \N\backslash\{1\}$, $f(x) := p_1^{2r_1}***p_N^{2r_N}$. + We know from the \textbf{Theorem} that any fraction can be uniquely written as a product of prime + factors with exponents, so when we assume $f(x_1) = f(x_2)$, we can also assume that $x_1$ and $x_2$ + have a unique prime factorization associated with them. So let's assume that $f(x_1) = f(x_2)$. + This means that $p_1^{2r_1}***p_N^{2r_N} = q_1^{2s_1}***q_M^{2s_M}$, where $p_i^{r_i}$ and $q_j^{s_j}$ + denote the prime factors for both sides.
