The lattice of closed sets #
Every closure system is a complete lattice. For a finite anti-exchange closure system, cardinality is a grading: every cover adds exactly one point.
The complete lattice structure transported along the Galois insertion from closed sets to all subsets.
A point closure, regarded as an element of the closed-set lattice.
Instances For
A point closure lies below a closed set exactly when the point lies in that set.
Distinct ground points give distinct point closures, now as elements of the closed-set lattice.
Every closed set is the supremum of the point closures of its elements.
In a finite anti-exchange closure system, a cover of closed sets adds one point.
Cardinality increases by one across every cover.
Cardinality supplies the grading of the finite closed-set lattice.
