Topic: filter the powerset
Peter Nelson (Aug 18 2020 at 17:53):
For S: finset \alpha
, I have a proposition P
defined over the subsets of S by
P (X : finset \alpha) (hX : X \ss S)
I would like to filter the power set of S by P to construct the set {X \in powerset X | P X (sorry)}
. However, I don't know how to fill in the sorry
. My functional programming is shaky, but I can't see a way to get an hX
from the left to the right of the 'such that' in the set definition, although it seems that a proof should 'obviously' exist. Can someone help me with this?

Try {X : finset α | ∃ (hX : X ⊆ S), P X hX}
