Infimum is Unique

Theorem
Let $\left({S, \preceq}\right)$ be an ordered set.

Let $T$ be a non-empty subset of $S$.

Then $T$ has at most one infimum in $S$.

Proof
Let $c$ and $c'$ both be infima of $T$ in $S$.

From the definition of infimum, $c$ and $c'$ are lower bounds of $T$ in $S$.

By that definition:


 * $c$ is a lower bound of $T$ in $S$ and $c'$ is an infimum of $T$ in $S$ implies that $c \preceq c'$
 * $c'$ is a lower bound of $T$ in $S$ and $c$ is an infimum of $T$ in $S$ implies that $c' \preceq c$.

So:
 * $c' \preceq c \land c \preceq c'$

and thus by the antisymmetry of the ordering $\preceq$:
 * $c = c'$
