Compactness properties for complete lattices #
For complete lattices, there are numerous equivalent ways to express the fact that the relation >
is well-founded. In this file we define three especially-useful characterisations and provide
proofs that they are indeed equivalent to well-foundedness.
Main definitions #
CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact
CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact
CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement
IsCompactlyGenerated
Main results #
The main result is that the following four conditions are equivalent for a complete lattice:
well_founded (>)
CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact
CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact
∀ k, CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement k
This is demonstrated by means of the following four lemmas:
CompleteLattice.WellFounded.isSupFiniteCompact
CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact.isSupClosedCompact
CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact.wellFounded
CompleteLattice.isSupFiniteCompact_iff_all_elements_compact
We also show well-founded lattices are compactly generated
(CompleteLattice.isCompactlyGenerated_of_wellFounded
).

A compactness property for a complete lattice is that any sup
-closed non-empty subset
contains its sSup
.
Equations
- CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact α = ∀ (s : Set α), Set.Nonempty s → SupClosed s → sSup s ∈ s
Instances For
A compactness property for a complete lattice is that any subset has a finite subset with the
same sSup
.
Equations
- CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact α = ∀ (s : Set α), ∃ t, ↑t ⊆ s ∧ sSup s = Finset.sup t id
Instances For
An element k
of a complete lattice is said to be compact if any set with sSup
above k
has a finite subset with sSup
above k
. Such an element is also called
"finite" or "S-compact".
Equations
- CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement k = ∀ (s : Set α), k ≤ sSup s → ∃ t, ↑t ⊆ s ∧ k ≤ Finset.sup t id
Instances For
An element k
is compact if and only if any directed set with sSup
above
k
already got above k
at some point in the set.
A compact element k
has the property that any directed set lying strictly below k
has
its sSup
strictly below k
.

In a compactly generated complete lattice, every element is the
sSup
of some set of compact elements.
A complete lattice is said to be compactly generated if any
element is the sSup
of compact elements.
Instances
This property is sometimes referred to as α
being upper continuous.
This property is sometimes referred to as α
being upper continuous.
This property is equivalent to α
being upper continuous.
A compact element k
has the property that any b < k
lies below a "maximal element below
k
", which is to say [⊥, k]
is coatomic.
See [Lemma 5.1][calugareanu].
Now we will prove that a compactly generated modular atomistic lattice is a complemented lattice. Most explicitly, every element is the complement of a supremum of indepedendent atoms.
In an atomic lattice, every element b
has a complement of the form sSup s
, where each
element of s
is an atom. See also complementedLattice_of_sSup_atoms_eq_top
.
