... Figure 4: Examples of Hasse diagrams to illustrate posets. A Hasse diagram is used to represent a finite poset. Each element in the poset is a vertex in the Hasse diagram. The transitive relation in the poset is represented by lines going up from one vertex to another in the Hasse diagram. The lines ...

... Most of the distributive lattices we have been considering have an interesting property which we call a "cover characterization." A ^-distributive lattice L is said to have a cover characterization if there exists a function f(k,n) such that if an element x of L of rank k covers/? elements, t h e n ...

... Now, I have named the sets A1, A2, … which means that I have implicitly ordered them in some way. However is this always possible? Let us consider the set R = {A1, A2, … Ak, …} This is an infinite set. It may be countable, or it may be not countable. Only if the set is countable, we can order the se ...

Lesson 5.2 Properties of Functions Exercises (pages 270–273) A 4
... 5. a) Each ordered pair has a different first element, so for every first element there is exactly one second element. So, the relation is a function. The domain is: {1, 2, 3, 4} The range is: {3, 6, 9, 12} b) The ordered pairs (0, 1) and (0, –1) have the same first element, 0. So, the relation is n ...
