Finite sets #
THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
Terms of type finset α
are one way of talking about finite subsets of α
in mathlib.
Below, finset α
is defined as a structure with 2 fields:
val
is amultiset α
of elements;nodup
is a proof thatval
has no duplicates.
Finsets in Lean are constructive in that they have an underlying list
that enumerates their
elements. In particular, any function that uses the data of the underlying list cannot depend on its
ordering. This is handled on the multiset
level by multiset API, so in most cases one needn't
worry about it explicitly.
Finsets give a basic foundation for defining finite sums and products over types:
Lean refers to these operations as big_operator
s.
More information can be found in algebra.big_operators.basic
.
Finsets are directly used to define fintypes in Lean.
A fintype α
instance for a type α
consists of
a universal finset α
containing every term of α
, called univ
. See data.fintype.basic
.
There is also univ'
, the noncomputable partner to univ
,
which is defined to be α
as a finset if α
is finite,
and the empty finset otherwise. See data.fintype.basic
.
finset.card
, the size of a finset is defined in data.finset.card
. This is then used to define
fintype.card
, the size of a type.

The lattice structure on subsets of finsets #
There is a natural lattice structure on the subsets of a set.
In Lean, we use lattice notation to talk about things involving unions and intersections. See
order.lattice
. For the lattice structure on finsets, ⊥
is called bot
with ⊥ = ∅
and ⊤
is
called top
with ⊤ = univ
.

to the dot notation.

The universe annotation is required for the following instance, possibly this is a bug in Lean. See leanprover.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/113488-general/topic/strange.20error.20(universe.20issue.3F)

To prove a proposition about S : finset α
,
it suffices to prove it for the empty finset

and to show that if it holds for some finset α ⊆ S

To prove a proposition about a nonempty s : finset α
, it suffices to show it holds for all
singletons and that if it holds for nonempty t : finset α
, then it also holds for the finset

.
Inserting an element to a finite set is equivalent to the option type.

filter #
filter p s
is the set of elements of s
that satisfy p
.
Equations
- finset.filter p s = {val := multiset.filter p s.val, nodup := _}
If all elements of a finset
satisfy the predicate p
, s.filter p
is s
.
If all elements of a finset
fail to satisfy the predicate p
, s.filter p
is ∅
.
The following instance allows us to write {x ∈ s | p x}
for finset.filter p s
.
Since the former notation requires us to define this for all propositions p
, and finset.filter
only works for decidable propositions, the notation {x ∈ s | p x}
is only compatible with
classical logic because it uses classical.prop_decidable
.
We don't want to redo all lemmas of finset.filter
for has_sep.sep
, so we make sure that simp
unfolds the notation {x ∈ s | p x}
to finset.filter p s
. If p
happens to be decidable, the
simp-lemma finset.filter_congr_decidable
will make sure that finset.filter
uses the right
instance for decidability.
Equations
- finset.has_sep = {sep := λ (p : α → Prop) (x : finset α), finset.filter p x}
After filtering out everything that does not equal a given value, at most that value remains.
This is equivalent to filter_eq'
with the equality the other way.

disj_Union #
This section is about the bounded union of a disjoint indexed family t : α → finset β
of finite
sets over a finite set s : finset α
. In most cases finset.bUnion
should be preferred.
disj_Union s f h
is the set such that a ∈ disj_Union s f
iff a ∈ f i
for some i ∈ s
.
It is the same as s.bUnion f
, but it does not require decidable equality on the type. The
hypothesis ensures that the sets are disjoint.
Equations
- s.disj_Union t hf = {val := s.val.bind (finset.val ∘ t), nodup := _}
bUnion #
This section is about the bounded union of an indexed family t : α → finset β
of finite sets
over a finite set s : finset α
.
bUnion s t
is the union of t x
over x ∈ s
.
(This was formerly bind
due to the monad structure on types with decidable_eq
.)
