Relations as sets of pairs

This file provides API to regard relations between α and β as sets of pairs Set (α × β).

This is in particular useful in the study of uniform spaces, which are topological spaces equipped with a uniformity, namely a filter of pairs α × α whose elements can be viewed as "proximity" relations.

Main declarations

• SetRel α β: Type of relations between α and β.
• SetRel.inv: Turn R : SetRel α β into R.inv : SetRel β α by swapping the arguments.
• SetRel.dom: Domain of a relation. a ∈ R.dom iff there exists b such that a ~[R] b.
• SetRel.cod: Codomain of a relation. b ∈ R.cod iff there exists a such that a ~[R] b.
• SetRel.id: The identity relation SetRel α α.
• SetRel.comp: SetRelation composition. Note that the arguments order follows the category theory convention, namely (R ○ S) a c ↔ ∃ b, a ~[R] b ∧ b ~[S] z.
• SetRel.image: Image of a set under a relation. b ∈ image R s iff there exists a ∈ s such that a ~[R] b. If R is the graph of f (a ~[R] b ↔ f a = b), then R.image = Set.image f.
• SetRel.preimage: Preimage of a set under a relation. a ∈ preimage R t iff there exists b ∈ t such that a ~[R] b. If R is the graph of f (a ~[R] b ↔ f a = b), then R.preimage = Set.preimage f.
• SetRel.core: Core of a set. For t : Set β, a ∈ R.core t iff all b related to a are in t.
• SetRel.restrictDomain: Domain-restriction of a relation to a subtype.
• Function.graph: Graph of a function as a relation.

Implementation notes

There is tension throughout the library between considering relations between α and β simply as α → β → Prop, or as a bundled object SetRel α β with dedicated operations and API.

The former approach is used almost everywhere as it is very lightweight and has arguably native support from core Lean features, but it cracks at the seams whenever one starts talking about operations on relations. For example:

• composition of relations R : α → β → Prop, S : β → γ → Prop is SetRelation.Comp R S := fun a c ↦ ∃ b, R a b ∧ S b c
• map of a relation R : α → β → Prop under f : α → γ, g : β → δ is SetRelation.map R f g := fun c d ↦ ∃ a b, r a b ∧ f a = c ∧ g b = d.

The latter approach is embodied by SetRel α β, with dedicated notation like ○ for composition.

Previously, SetRel suffered from the leakage of its definition as

def SetRel (α β : Type*) := α → β → Prop

The fact that SetRel wasn't an abbrev confuses automation. But simply making it an abbrev would have killed the point of having a separate less see-through type to perform relation operations on, so we instead redefined

def SetRel (α β : Type*) := Set (α × β) → Prop

This extra level of indirection guides automation correctly and prevents (some kinds of) leakage.

Simultaneously, uniform spaces need a theory of relations on a type α as elements of Set (α × α), and the new definition of SetRel fulfills this role quite well.

@[reducible, inline]

abbrev SetRel (α : Type u_5) (β : Type u_6) : Type (max u_6 u_5)

A relation on α and β, aka a set-valued function, aka a partial multifunction.

We represent them as sets due to how relations are used in the context of uniform spaces.

Equations

• SetRel α β = Set (α × β)

def SetRel.«term_~[_]_» : Lean.TrailingParserDescr

Notation for apply a relation R : SetRel α β to a : α, b : β, scoped to the SetRel namespace.

Since SetRel α β := Set (α × β), a ~[R] b is simply notation for (a, b) ∈ R, but this should be considered an implementation detail.

abbrev Rel (α : Type u_5) (β : Type u_6) : Type (max u_5 u_6)

A shorthand for α → β → Prop.

Consider using SetRel instead if you want extra API for relations.
