Relation closures #
THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
This file defines the reflexive, transitive, and reflexive transitive closures of relations.
It also proves some basic results on definitions in core, such as eqv_gen.
Note that this is about unbundled relations, that is terms of types of the form α → β → Prop. For
the bundled version, see rel.

Sorefl_trans_gen r a b ↔ (∃ x₀ ... xₙ, r a x₀ ∧ r x₀ x₁ ∧ ... ∧ r xₙ b) ∨ a = b. It is the same as the reflexive closure of the transitive closure, or the transitive closure of the reflexive closure. In terms of rewriting systems, this means thatacan be rewritten tobin a number of rewrites.relation.comp: Relation composition. We provide notation∘r.

Forr : α → α → Prop,join r a b ↔ ∃ c, r a c ∧ r b c. In terms of rewriting systems, this means thataandbcan be rewritten to the same term.
The composition of two relations, yielding a new relation. The result
relates a term of α and a term of γ if there is an intermediate
term of β related to both.
Equations
- relation.comp r p a c = ∃ (b : β), r a b ∧ p b c
A function f : α → β is a fibration between the relation rα and rβ if for all
a : α and b : β, whenever b : β and f a are related by rβ, b is the image
of some a' : α under f, and a' and a are related by rα.
If f : α → β is a fibration between relations rα and rβ, and a : α is
accessible under rα, then f a is accessible under rβ.
The map of a relation r through a pair of functions pushes the
relation to the codomains of the functions. The resulting relation is
defined by having pairs of terms related if they have preimages
related by r.

Instances for relation.trans_gen
The join of a relation on a single type is a new relation for which
pairs of terms are related if there is a third term they are both
related to. For example, if r is a relation representing rewrites
in a term rewriting system, then confluence is the property that if
a rewrites to both b and c, then join r relates b and c
(see relation.church_rosser).
Equations
- relation.join r = λ (a b : α), ∃ (c : α), r a c ∧ r b c
A sufficient condition for the Church-Rosser property.
