Pretransitive group actions #

This file defines a typeclass for pretransitive group actions.

This file should avoid depending on other parts of GroupTheory, to avoid import cycles. More sophisticated lemmas belong in GroupTheory.GroupAction.

(Pre)transitive action #

M acts pretransitively on α if for any x y there is g such that g • x = y (or g +ᵥ x = y for an additive action). A transitive action should furthermore have α nonempty.

In this section we define typeclasses MulAction.IsPretransitive and AddAction.IsPretransitive and provide MulAction.exists_smul_eq/AddAction.exists_vadd_eq, MulAction.surjective_smul/AddAction.surjective_vadd as public interface to access this property. We do not provide typeclasses *Action.IsTransitive; users should assume [MulAction.IsPretransitive M α] [Nonempty α] instead.

class AddAction.IsPretransitive (M : Type u_5) (α : Type u_6) [VAdd M α] :

M acts pretransitively on α if for any x y there is g such that g +ᵥ x = y. A transitive action should furthermore have α nonempty.

  • exists_vadd_eq : ∀ (x y : α), ∃ (g : M), g +ᵥ x = y

    There is g such that g +ᵥ x = y.

      The regular action of a group on itself is transitive.

      The regular action of a group on itself is transitive.

      If an action is transitive, then composing this action with a surjective homomorphism gives again a transitive action.
