comment Shows that $M=\{(x,y,z):xy=0, x^2+y^2+z^2=1, z\ne +1 \ and -1\} $ is a 1- manifold.
yes but you also have the condition $xy = 0$ so the good function to consider is $\Phi(x,y,z) = (x^2 + y^2 + z^2 -1, xy) $, and so $M = \Phi^{-1}(\{0,0\}) $

comment If radial projection is bijective then is it a homeomorphism?
I don't think this approach would lead to a counter example. The problem here is that you consider surfaces (or curves) with boundary, which seems proscribed. In that case I can prove there is no such counter-example in the one-dimensional case

comment If radial projection is bijective then is it a homeomorphism?
The intersting question raised up by this remark is to find out if there exists a non-compact surface $S$ admiting a continuous bijection from $S$ to $S^2$.

comment If radial projection is bijective then is it a homeomorphism?
If $S$ is compact, it is true. Exercise : every continuous bijective map from a compact space to a Haussdorf space is a homeomorphism on its image

comment $f: \mathbb{Q} \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \ \ \lim _{q \rightarrow t, \ q\in \mathbb{Q}} f(q) =g$
"I know that if a function is continuous on rational points, then it's continuous on whole R, but that isn't relevant to the problem, is it?" What about $\tan$ restricted to $\mathbb{Q}$ ?

comment Hatcher - simplicial and quotient representations of spheres
The sterographic projection gives you an homeomorphism between $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $S^n - \{x\}$. But it is not really difficult to prove that $\mathbb{R}^n$ is homeomorphic to $D^n$.

comment Hatcher - simplicial and quotient representations of spheres
If you admit that $S^n - \{x\}$ is homeomorphic to $D^n$ with $\varphi : D^n \longrightarrow S^n - \{x\}$, put $\tilde{\varphi} : \overline{D^n} \longrightarrow S^n$ that equals $\varphi$ on $D^n$ and $x$ on $\partial D^n$. You now have to check that $\tilde{\varphi}$ factors to a continuous function from $D^n / \partial D^n$ with respect to the quotient topology

It depends on how explicit you want the homeomorphism to be.

comment Measure on a quotient
Such a $\Pi$ is an infinite covering map, this would imply that the measure of the image of any set of positive measure would be infinite, and that is not really good, isn't it ?
