Palindromes #

THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.

This module defines palindromes, lists which are equal to their reverse.

The main result is the palindrome inductive type, and its associated palindrome.rec_on induction principle. Also provided are conversions to and from other equivalent definitions.

inductive list.palindrome {α : Type u_1} :
list α Prop

palindrome l asserts that l is a palindrome. This is defined inductively:

  • The empty list is a palindrome;
  • A list with one element is a palindrome;
  • Adding the same element to both ends of a palindrome results in a bigger palindrome.
