Let g : N $$\to$$ N be defined as
g(3n + 1) = 3n + 2,
g(3n + 2) = 3n + 3,
g(3n + 3) = 3n + 1, for all n $$\ge$$ 0.
Then which of the following statements is true?

g(3n + 2) = 3n + 3,
g(3n + 3) = 3n + 1, for all n $$\ge$$ 0.
Then which of the following statements is true?
There exists an onto function f : N $$\to$$ N such that fog = f
There exists a one-one function f : N $$\to$$ N such that fog = f
gogog = g
There exists a function : f : N $$\to$$ N such that gof = f
Explanation
g : N $$\to$$ N
g(3n + 1) = 3n + 2,
g(3n + 2) = 3n + 3,
g(3n + 3) = 3n + 1
$$g(x) = \left[ {\matrix{ {x + 1} & {x = 3k + 1} \cr {x + 1} & {x = 3k + 2} \cr {x - 2} & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
$$g\left( {g(x)} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{ {x + 2} & {x = 3k + 1} \cr {x - 1} & {x = 3k + 2} \cr {x - 1} & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
$$g\left( {g\left( {g\left( x \right)} \right)} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{ x & {x = 3k + 1} \cr x & {x = 3k + 2} \cr x & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
If f : N $$\to$$ N, if is a one-one function such that f(g(x)) = f(x) $$\Rightarrow$$ g(x) = x, which is not the case
If f : N $$\to$$ N f is an onto function
such that f(g(x)) = f(x),
one possibility is
$$f(x) = \left[ {\matrix{ x & {x = 3n + 1} \cr x & {x = 3n + 2} \cr x & {x = 3n + 3} \cr } } \right.$$ n$$\in$$N0
Here f(x) is onto, also f(g(x)) = f(x) $$\forall$$ x$$\in$$N
g(3n + 1) = 3n + 2,
g(3n + 2) = 3n + 3,
g(3n + 3) = 3n + 1
$$g(x) = \left[ {\matrix{ {x + 1} & {x = 3k + 1} \cr {x + 1} & {x = 3k + 2} \cr {x - 2} & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
$$g\left( {g(x)} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{ {x + 2} & {x = 3k + 1} \cr {x - 1} & {x = 3k + 2} \cr {x - 1} & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
$$g\left( {g\left( {g\left( x \right)} \right)} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{ x & {x = 3k + 1} \cr x & {x = 3k + 2} \cr x & {x = 3k + 3} \cr } } \right.$$
If f : N $$\to$$ N, if is a one-one function such that f(g(x)) = f(x) $$\Rightarrow$$ g(x) = x, which is not the case
If f : N $$\to$$ N f is an onto function
such that f(g(x)) = f(x),
one possibility is
$$f(x) = \left[ {\matrix{ x & {x = 3n + 1} \cr x & {x = 3n + 2} \cr x & {x = 3n + 3} \cr } } \right.$$ n$$\in$$N0
Here f(x) is onto, also f(g(x)) = f(x) $$\forall$$ x$$\in$$N
