Definition
Let $L_1 = \struct {S_1, \preceq_1}$ and $L_2 = \struct {S_2, \preceq_2}$ be complete lattices.
Let $\phi: S_1 \to S_2$ be a mapping between the underlying sets of $L_1$ and $L_2$.
Then:
- $\phi$ is a complete lattice homomorphism from $L_1$ to $L_2$, denoted $\phi: L_1 \to L_2$
- $\phi$ satisfies the complete lattice homomorphism axioms:
\((1)\) | $:$ | arbitrary join preserving | \(\ds \forall A \subseteq S_1:\) | \(\ds \map \phi {\sup A} \) | \(\ds = \) | \(\ds \sup \set{\map \phi x : x \in A} \) | |||
\((2)\) | $:$ | arbitrary meet preserving | \(\ds \forall A \subseteq S_1:\) | \(\ds \map \phi {\inf A} \) | \(\ds = \) | \(\ds \inf \set{\map \phi x : x \in A} \) |
