View on Github →chore: rename LocalHomeomorph to PartialHomeomorph (#8982)
LocalHomeomorph
evokes a "local homeomorphism": this is not what this means.
Instead, this is a homeomorphism on an open set of the domain (extended to the whole space, by the junk value pattern). Hence, partial homeomorphism is more appropriate, and avoids confusion with IsLocallyHomeomorph
.
A future PR will rename LocalEquiv
to PartialEquiv
.
