Closure operators between preorders #

We define (bundled) closure operators on a preorder as monotone (increasing), extensive (inflationary) and idempotent functions. We define closed elements for the operator as elements which are fixed by it.

Lower adjoints to a function between preorders u : β → α allow to generalise closure operators to situations where the closure operator we are dealing with naturally decomposes as u ∘ l where l is a worthy function to have on its own. Typical examples include l : set G → subgroup G := subgroup.closure, u : subgroup G → set G := coe, where G is a group. This shows there is a close connection between closure operators, lower adjoints and Galois connections/insertions: every Galois connection induces a lower adjoint which itself induces a closure operator by composition (see galois_connection.lower_adjoint and lower_adjoint.closure_operator), and every closure operator on a partial order induces a Galois insertion from the set of closed elements to the underlying type (see closure_operator.gi).

Main definitions #

closure_operator: A closure operator is a monotone function f : α → α such that ∀ x, x ≤ f x and ∀ x, f (f x) = f x.
lower_adjoint: A lower adjoint to u : β → α is a function l : α → β such that l and u form a Galois connection.

Implementation details #

Although lower_adjoint is technically a generalisation of closure_operator (by defining to_fun := id), it is desirable to have both as otherwise ids would be carried all over the place when using concrete closure operators such as convex_hull.

lower_adjoint really is a semibundled structure version of galois_connection.

Closure operator #

Type u_1

to_preorder_hom : α →ₘ α
le_closure' : ∀ (x : α), x ≤ c.to_preorder_hom.to_fun x
idempotent' : ∀ (x : α), c.to_preorder_hom.to_fun (c.to_preorder_hom.to_fun x) = c.to_preorder_hom.to_fun x

A closure operator on the preorder α is a monotone function which is extensive (every x is less than its closure) and idempotent.
