Compactness properties for complete lattices

For complete lattices, there are numerous equivalent ways to express the fact that the relation > is well-founded. In this file we define three especially-useful characterisations and provide proofs that they are indeed equivalent to well-foundedness.

Main definitions

• CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact
• CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact
• CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement
• IsCompactlyGenerated

Main results

The main result is that the following four conditions are equivalent for a complete lattice:

• well_founded (>)
• CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact
• CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact
• ∀ k, CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement k

This is demonstrated by means of the following four lemmas:

• CompleteLattice.WellFounded.isSupFiniteCompact
• CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact.isSupClosedCompact
• CompleteLattice.IsSupClosedCompact.wellFounded
• CompleteLattice.isSupFiniteCompact_iff_all_elements_compact

We also show well-founded lattices are compactly generated (CompleteLattice.isCompactlyGenerated_of_wellFounded).

def CompleteLattice.IsSupFiniteCompact (α : Type u_2) [CompleteLattice α] : Prop

A compactness property for a complete lattice is that any subset has a finite subset with the same sSup.

def CompleteLattice.IsCompactElement {α : Type u_3} [CompleteLattice α] (k : α) : Prop

An element k of a complete lattice is said to be compact if any set with sSup above k has a finite subset with sSup above k. Such an element is also called "finite" or "S-compact".
