Definitions about upper/lower bounds #
In this file we define:
upperBounds
,lowerBounds
: the set of upper bounds (resp., lower bounds) of a set;BddAbove s
,BddBelow s
: the sets
is bounded above (resp., below), i.e., the set of upper (resp., lower) bounds ofs
is nonempty;IsLeast s a
,IsGreatest s a
:a
is a least (resp., greatest) element ofs
; for a partial order, it is unique if exists;IsLUB s a
,IsGLB s a
:a
is a least upper bound (resp., a greatest lower bound) ofs
; for a partial order, it is unique if exists.IsCofinal s
: for everya
, there exists a member ofs
greater or equal to it.
The set of upper bounds of a set.
Equations
- upperBounds s = {x : α | ∀ ⦃a : α⦄, a ∈ s → a ≤ x}
Instances For
The set of lower bounds of a set.
Equations
- lowerBounds s = {x : α | ∀ ⦃a : α⦄, a ∈ s → x ≤ a}
Instances For
a
is a greatest element of a set s
; for a partial order, it is unique if exists.
Equations
- IsGreatest s a = (a ∈ s ∧ a ∈ upperBounds s)
Instances For
a
is a greatest lower bound of a set s
; for a partial order, it is unique if exists.
Equations
- IsGLB s = IsGreatest (lowerBounds s)
