Cardinality of W-types #
This file proves some theorems about the cardinality of W-types. The main result is
cardinalMk_le_max_aleph0_of_finite
which says that if for any a : α
,
β a
is finite, then the cardinality of WType β
is at most the maximum of the
cardinality of α
and ℵ₀
.
This can be used to prove theorems about the cardinality of algebraic constructions such as
polynomials. There is a surjection from a WType
to MvPolynomial
for example, and
this surjection can be used to put an upper bound on the cardinality of MvPolynomial
.
