Definition



Let $\struct {S, \preceq}$ be a directed set.

Let $L = \struct {T, \precsim}$ be a complete lattice.

Let $N: S \to T$ be a net in $T$.


Then limit inferior of $N$ is defined as follows:

$\liminf N := \sup_L \set { {\map {\inf_L} {N \sqbrk {\map \preceq j} } : j \in S} }$

where

$\map \preceq j$ denotes the image of $j$ by $\preceq$
$N \sqbrk {\map \preceq j}$ denotes the image of $\map \preceq j$ under $N$.
