Cofinality

This file contains the definition of cofinality of an ordinal number and regular cardinals

Main Definitions

• Ordinal.cof o is the cofinality of the ordinal o. If o is the order type of the relation < on α, then o.cof is the smallest cardinality of a subset s of α that is cofinal in α, i.e. ∀ x : α, ∃ y ∈ s, ¬ y < x.
• Cardinal.IsStrongLimit c means that c is a strong limit cardinal: c ≠ 0 ∧ ∀ x < c, 2 ^ x < c.
• Cardinal.IsRegular c means that c is a regular cardinal: ℵ₀ ≤ c ∧ c.ord.cof = c.
• Cardinal.IsInaccessible c means that c is strongly inaccessible: ℵ₀ < c ∧ IsRegular c ∧ IsStrongLimit c.

Main Statements

• Ordinal.infinite_pigeonhole_card: the infinite pigeonhole principle
• Cardinal.lt_power_cof: A consequence of König's theorem stating that c < c ^ c.ord.cof for c ≥ ℵ₀
• Cardinal.univ_inaccessible: The type of ordinals in Type u form an inaccessible cardinal (in Type v with v > u). This shows (externally) that in Type u there are at least u inaccessible cardinals.

Implementation Notes

• The cofinality is defined for ordinals. If c is a cardinal number, its cofinality is c.ord.cof.

Cofinality of orders

def Order.cof {α : Type u_1} (r : α → α → Prop) : Cardinal.{u_1}

Cofinality of a reflexive order ≼. This is the smallest cardinality of a subset S : Set α such that ∀ a, ∃ b ∈ S, a ≼ b.

Equations

• Order.cof r = sInf {c : Cardinal.{?u.6} | ∃ (S : Set α), (∀ (a : α), ∃ b ∈ S, r a b) ∧ Cardinal.mk ↑S = c}

The set in the definition of Order.cof is nonempty.

def StrictOrder.cof {α : Type u_1} (r : α → α → Prop) : Cardinal.{u_1}

Cofinality of a strict order ≺. This is the smallest cardinality of a set S : Set α such that ∀ a, ∃ b ∈ S, ¬ b ≺ a.

Equations

• StrictOrder.cof r = Order.cof (Function.swap rᶜ)

theorem StrictOrder.cof_nonempty {α : Type u_1} (r : α → α → Prop) [IsIrrefl α r] : {c : Cardinal.{u_1} | ∃ (S : Set α), Set.Unbounded r S ∧ Cardinal.mk ↑S = c}.Nonempty

The set in the definition of Order.StrictOrder.cof is nonempty.

Cofinality of ordinals

def Ordinal.cof (o : Ordinal.{u}) : Cardinal.{u}

Cofinality of an ordinal. This is the smallest cardinal of a subset S of the ordinal which is unbounded, in the sense ∀ a, ∃ b ∈ S, a ≤ b. It is defined for all ordinals, but cof 0 = 0 and cof (succ o) = 1, so it is only really interesting on limit ordinals (when it is an infinite cardinal).
