Equivalence of Definitions of Lower Section

Theorem
Let $\struct {S, \preceq}$ be an ordered set.

Let $U \subseteq S$.

Proof
We are required to show that the following are equivalent:

By the Duality Principle, it suffices to prove that:


 * $(1^*)$, $(2^*)$ and $(3^*)$ are equivalent

where these are the dual statements of $(1)$, $(2)$ and $(3)$, respectively.

By Dual Pairs, it can be seen that these dual statements are as follows:

Their equivalence is proved on Equivalence of Definitions of Upper Section.
