1 1. Review of Preorders Linguistics 680: Formal Foundations Autumn 2010

2 (Pre-)Orders and Induced Equivalence A preorder on a set A is a binary relation ( less than or equivalent to ) on A which is reflexive and transitive.

3 (Pre-)Orders and Induced Equivalence A preorder on a set A is a binary relation ( less than or equivalent to ) on A which is reflexive and transitive. An antisymmetric preorder is called an order.

4 (Pre-)Orders and Induced Equivalence A preorder on a set A is a binary relation ( less than or equivalent to ) on A which is reflexive and transitive. An antisymmetric preorder is called an order. The equivalence relation induced by the preorder is defined by a b iff a b and b a.

5 (Pre-)Orders and Induced Equivalence A preorder on a set A is a binary relation ( less than or equivalent to ) on A which is reflexive and transitive. An antisymmetric preorder is called an order. The equivalence relation induced by the preorder is defined by a b iff a b and b a. If is an order, then is just the identity relation on A, and correspondingly is read as less than or equal to.

6 Background Assumptions (until further notice) is a preorder on A

7 Background Assumptions (until further notice) is a preorder on A is the induced equivalence relation

8 Background Assumptions (until further notice) is a preorder on A is the induced equivalence relation S A

9 Background Assumptions (until further notice) is a preorder on A is the induced equivalence relation S A a A (not necessarily S)

10 More Definitions We call a an upper (lower) bound of S iff, for every b S, b a (a b).

11 More Definitions We call a an upper (lower) bound of S iff, for every b S, b a (a b). Suppose moreover that a S. Then a is said to be: greatest (least) in S iff it is an upper (lower) bound of S

12 More Definitions We call a an upper (lower) bound of S iff, for every b S, b a (a b). Suppose moreover that a S. Then a is said to be: greatest (least) in S iff it is an upper (lower) bound of S a top (bottom) iff it is greatest (least) in A

13 More Definitions We call a an upper (lower) bound of S iff, for every b S, b a (a b). Suppose moreover that a S. Then a is said to be: greatest (least) in S iff it is an upper (lower) bound of S a top (bottom) iff it is greatest (least) in A maximal (minimal) in S iff, for every b S, if a b (b a), then a b.

14 More Definitions We call a an upper (lower) bound of S iff, for every b S, b a (a b). Suppose moreover that a S. Then a is said to be: greatest (least) in S iff it is an upper (lower) bound of S a top (bottom) iff it is greatest (least) in A maximal (minimal) in S iff, for every b S, if a b (b a), then a b. Note: the definition of greatest/least above is equivalent to the one in Chapter 3.

15 Observations If a is greatest (least) in S, it is maximal (minimal) in S.

16 Observations If a is greatest (least) in S, it is maximal (minimal) in S. All greatest (least) members of S are equivalent.

17 Observations If a is greatest (least) in S, it is maximal (minimal) in S. All greatest (least) members of S are equivalent. And so all tops (bottoms) of A are equivalent.

18 Observations If a is greatest (least) in S, it is maximal (minimal) in S. All greatest (least) members of S are equivalent. And so all tops (bottoms) of A are equivalent. And so if is an order, S has at most one greatest (least) member, and A has at most one top (bottom).

19 LUBs and GLBs Let UB(S) (LB(S)) be the set of upper (lower) bounds of S. A least member of UB(S) is called a least upper bound (lub) of S.

20 LUBs and GLBs Let UB(S) (LB(S)) be the set of upper (lower) bounds of S. A least member of UB(S) is called a least upper bound (lub) of S. A greatest member of LB(S) is called a greatest lower bound (glb) of S.

21 More about LUBs and GLBs Any greatest (least) member of S is a lub (glb) of S.

22 More about LUBs and GLBs Any greatest (least) member of S is a lub (glb) of S. All lubs (glbs) of S are equivalent.

23 More about LUBs and GLBs Any greatest (least) member of S is a lub (glb) of S. All lubs (glbs) of S are equivalent. If is an order, then S has at most one lub (glb).

24 More about LUBs and GLBs Any greatest (least) member of S is a lub (glb) of S. All lubs (glbs) of S are equivalent. If is an order, then S has at most one lub (glb). A lub (glb) of A is the same thing as a top (bottom).

25 More about LUBs and GLBs Any greatest (least) member of S is a lub (glb) of S. All lubs (glbs) of S are equivalent. If is an order, then S has at most one lub (glb). A lub (glb) of A is the same thing as a top (bottom). A lub (glb) of is the same thing as a bottom (top).

26 Some Notation If S = {a}, then UB(S) (LB(S)) is usually written a ( a), read up of a ( down of a ).

27 Some Notation If S = {a}, then UB(S) (LB(S)) is usually written a ( a), read up of a ( down of a ). If S has a unique glb (lub), it is written S ( S).

28 Some Notation If S = {a}, then UB(S) (LB(S)) is usually written a ( a), read up of a ( down of a ). If S has a unique glb (lub), it is written S ( S). If S = {a, b} and S has a unique glb (lub), it is written a b (a b).

29 Some Notation If S = {a}, then UB(S) (LB(S)) is usually written a ( a), read up of a ( down of a ). If S has a unique glb (lub), it is written S ( S). If S = {a, b} and S has a unique glb (lub), it is written a b (a b). If A has a unique top (bottom), it is written ( ).

41 Preorder (Anti-)Isomorphism A monotonic (antitonic) bijection is called a preorder isomorphism (preorder anti-isomorphism) provided its inverse is also monotonic (antitonic). Two preordered sets are said to be preorder-isomorphic provided there is a preorder isomorphism from one to the other.
