Basic definitions about sets

In this file we define various operations on sets. We also provide basic lemmas needed to unfold the definitions. More advanced theorems about these definitions are located in other files in Mathlib/Data/Set.

Main definitions

• complement of a set and set difference;
• Set.Elem: coercion of a set to a type; it is reducibly equal to {x // x ∈ s};
• Set.preimage f s, a.k.a. f ⁻¹' s: preimage of a set;
• Set.range f: the range of a function; it is more general than f '' univ because it allows functions from Sort*;
• s ×ˢ t: product of s : Set α and t : Set β as a set in α × β;
• Set.diagonal: the diagonal in α × α;
• Set.offDiag s: the part of s ×ˢ s that is off the diagonal;
• Set.pi: indexed product of a family of sets ∀ i, Set (α i), as a set in ∀ i, α i;
• Set.EqOn f g s: the predicate saying that two functions are equal on a set;
• Set.MapsTo f s t: the predicate syaing that f sends all points of s to `t;
• Set.MapsTo.restrict: restrict f : α → β to f' : s → t provided that Set.MapsTo f s t;
• Set.restrictPreimage: restrict f : α → β to f' : (f ⁻¹' t) → t;
• Set.InjOn: the predicate saying that f is injective on a set;
• Set.SurjOn f s t: the prediate saying that t ⊆ f '' s;
• Set.BijOn f s t: the predicate saying that f is injective on s and f '' s = t;
• Set.graphOn: the graph of a function on a set;
• Set.LeftInvOn, Set.RightInvOn, Set.InvOn: the predicates saying that f' is a left, right or two-sided inverse of f on s, t, or both;
• Set.image2: the image of a pair of sets under a binary operation, mostly useful to define pointwise algebraic operations on sets;
• Set.seq: monadic seq operation on sets; we don't use monadic notation to ensure support for maps between different universes;

Notations

• f '' s: image of a set;
• f ⁻¹' s: preimage of a set;
• s ×ˢ t: the product of sets;
• s ∪ t: the union of two sets;
• s ∩ t: the intersection of two sets;
• sᶜ: the complement of a set;
• s \ t: the difference of two sets.
