Assume is a homeomorphism. Since is proper we can extend it to a continuous map which in fact will be a homeomorphism. Taking inverse if necessary we may assume . Let Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle F : Sn × [0, 1] --> Sm} be a homotopy of to a smooth map i.e. is continuous, and is smooth. Since is smooth and all of its image points are singular values and by Sard's theorem constitute a set of measure zero. Then there is a point in not in the image of , but the complement of that point is contractible. This means that we can extend to Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle \overline{F} : Sn × [0, 2] --> S^m} to be a homotopy of to a constant map. But then Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle f^{-1}\circ\overline{F}} is a contraction of which is a contradiction with the fact that no such contraction exists.
