Uniqueness of the complement

 

The complement of a set is the only set that satisfies the first two complement properties above. That is complementation is characterized by those two laws, as we can formally establish:

\( A\cup B=U \land A\cap B=\varnothing \iff B=A^{C} \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> complement (a `intersection` b) .== complement a `union` complement b
Q.E.D.

Inclusion is a partial order

 

Subset inclusion is a partial order, i.e., it is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive:

\( A \subseteq A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> a `isSubsetOf` a
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq B \land B\subseteq A \iff A = B \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` b .&& b `isSubsetOf` a .<=> a .== b
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq B \land B\subseteq C \Rightarrow A \subseteq C \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> a `isSubsetOf` b .&& b `isSubsetOf` c .=> a `isSubsetOf` c
Q.E.D.

Joins and meets

 

\( A\subseteq A\cup B \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` (a `union` b)
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq C \land B\subseteq C \Rightarrow (A \cup B) \subseteq C \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> a `isSubsetOf` c .&& b `isSubsetOf` c .=> (a `union` b) `isSubsetOf` c
Q.E.D.

\( A\cap B\subseteq A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> (a `intersection` b) `isSubsetOf` a
Q.E.D.

\( A\cap B\subseteq B \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> (a `intersection` b) `isSubsetOf` b
Q.E.D.

\( C\subseteq A \land C\subseteq B \Rightarrow C \subseteq (A \cap B) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> c `isSubsetOf` a .&& c `isSubsetOf` b .=> c `isSubsetOf` (a `intersection` b)
Q.E.D.

Subset characterization

 

There are multiple equivalent ways of characterizing the subset relationship:

\( A\subseteq B \iff A \cap B = A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` b .<=> a `intersection` b .== a
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq B \iff A \cup B = B \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` b .<=> a `union` b .== b
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq B \iff A \setminus B = \varnothing \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` b .<=> a `difference` b .== empty
Q.E.D.

\( A\subseteq B \iff B^{C} \subseteq A^{C} \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> a `isSubsetOf` b .<=> complement b `isSubsetOf` complement a
Q.E.D.

Relative complements

 

\( C\setminus (A\cap B)=(C\setminus A)\cup (C\setminus B) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> c \\ (a `intersection` b) .== (c \\ a) `union` (c \\ b)
Q.E.D.

\( C\setminus (A\cup B)=(C\setminus A)\cap (C\setminus B) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> c \\ (a `union` b) .== (c \\ a) `intersection` (c \\ b)
Q.E.D.

\( \displaystyle C\setminus (B\setminus A)=(A\cap C)\cup (C\setminus B) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> c \\ (b \\ a) .== (a `intersection` c) `union` (c \\ b)
Q.E.D.

\( (B\setminus A)\cap C = (B\cap C)\setminus A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> (b \\ a) `intersection` c .== (b `intersection` c) \\ a
Q.E.D.

\( (B\setminus A)\cap C= B\cap (C\setminus A) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> (b \\ a) `intersection` c .== b `intersection` (c \\ a)
Q.E.D.

\( (B\setminus A)\cup C=(B\cup C)\setminus (A\setminus C) \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> (b \\ a) `union` c .== (b `union` c) \\ (a \\ c)
Q.E.D.

\( A \setminus A = \varnothing \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> a \\ a .== empty
Q.E.D.

\( \varnothing \setminus A = \varnothing \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> empty \\ a .== empty
Q.E.D.

\( A \setminus \varnothing = A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> a \\ empty .== a
Q.E.D.

\( B \setminus A = A^{C} \cap B \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> b \\ a .== complement a `intersection` b
Q.E.D.

\( {(B \setminus A)}^{C} = A \cup B^{C} \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b -> complement (b \\ a) .== a `union` complement b
Q.E.D.

\( U \setminus A = A^{C} \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> full \\ a .== complement a
Q.E.D.

\( A \setminus U = \varnothing \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) -> a \\ full .== empty
Q.E.D.

Distributing subset relation

 

A common mistake newcomers to set theory make is to distribute the subset relationship over intersection and unions, which is only true as described above. Here, we use SBV to show two incorrect cases:

Subset relation does not distribute over union on the left:

\(A \subseteq (B \cup C) \nRightarrow A \subseteq B \land A \subseteq C \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> a `isSubsetOf` (b `union` c) .=> a `isSubsetOf` b .&& a `isSubsetOf` c
Falsifiable. Counter-example:
  s0 =     {2} :: {Integer}
  s1 =       U :: {Integer}
  s2 = U - {2} :: {Integer}

Similarly, subset relation does not distribute over intersection on the right:

\( (B \cap C) \subseteq A \nRightarrow B \subseteq A \land C \subseteq A \)

>>> prove $ \(a :: SI) b c -> (b `intersection` c) `isSubsetOf` a .=> b `isSubsetOf` a .&& c `isSubsetOf` a
Falsifiable. Counter-example:
  s0 = U - {2} :: {Integer}
  s1 =      {} :: {Integer}
  s2 =     {2} :: {Integer}
