If $f: U to mathbb{R}^{n}$ is a $C^{1}$ function, $U subset mathbb{R}^{n}$ open, show that $f$ is an open...

Let $f: U to mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a $C^{1}$ function with $U subset mathbb{R}^{n}$ open. Show that $f$ is an open map.




If $det Df neq 0$ (maybe it's not so direct), I think I can use the Inverse Function Theorem for show that $f$ is a local diffeomorphism and so, write $f(O)$ as union of open sets for each $O subset U$ open. But without this hypothesis, how can I ensure the same conclusion? I really dont see the way.

    Was there supposed to be an assumption of injectivity or something?

    @Randall no, I know that $f$ need not to be continuously differentiable, but the way it's written, it seemed very strange to me. Fortunately the counterexample is trivial. I think the author forgot to write some more hypothesis.

You can't prove it, since it is false. Take any constant function, for instance.
