The Galois Connection Induced by a Relation #
In this file, we show that an arbitrary relation R between a pair of types α and β defines
a pair toDual ∘ R.leftDual and R.rightDual ∘ ofDual of adjoint order-preserving maps between the
corresponding posets Set α and (Set β)ᵒᵈ.
We define R.leftFixedPoints (resp. R.rightFixedPoints) as the set of fixed points J
(resp. I) of Set α (resp. Set β) such that rightDual (leftDual J) = J
(resp. leftDual (rightDual I) = I).
Main Results #
⋆ Rel.gc_leftDual_rightDual: we prove that the maps toDual ∘ R.leftDual and
R.rightDual ∘ ofDual form a Galois connection.
⋆ Rel.equivFixedPoints: we prove that the maps R.leftDual and R.rightDual induce inverse
bijections between the sets of fixed points.
