Definition:Auxiliary Relation
Pages that reference this one will have to be amended for consistency.
Until this has been finished, please leave {{refactor}} in the code.
New contributors: Refactoring is a task which is expected to be undertaken by experienced editors only. Because of the underlying complexity of the work needed, it is recommended that you do not embark on a refactoring task until you have become familiar with the structural nature of pages of $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.
Definition
Let $L = \left({S, \vee, \preceq}\right)$ be a bounded below join semilattice.
Let $\mathcal R \subseteq S \times S$ be a relation on $S$.
Then $\mathcal R$ is an auxiliary relation if and only if
| \((1)\) | $:$ | \(\displaystyle \forall x, y \in S:\) | \(\displaystyle \left({x, y}\right) \in \mathcal R \implies x \preceq y \) | |||||
| \((2)\) | $:$ | \(\displaystyle \forall x, y, z, u \in S:\) | \(\displaystyle x \preceq y \land \left({y, z}\right) \in \mathcal R \land z \preceq u \implies \left({x, u}\right) \in \mathcal R \) | |||||
| \((3)\) | $:$ | \(\displaystyle \forall x, y, z \in S:\) | \(\displaystyle \left({x, z}\right) \in \mathcal R \land \left({y, z}\right) \in \mathcal R \implies \left({x \vee y, z}\right) \in \mathcal R \) | |||||
| \((4)\) | $:$ | \(\displaystyle \forall x \in S:\) | \(\displaystyle \left({\bot, x}\right) \in \mathcal R \) |
where $\bot$ denotes the bottom and $\land$ denotes conjunction.
