Starting Context



Target Context


  • The reader will have a description and a proof of the proposition that for any product set, the product of the complements of any subsets is the product of the whole sets minus the union of the products of the whole sets, \(1\) of which is replaced with a subset for each product.

Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(J\): \(\in \{\text{ the possibly uncountable index sets }\}\)
\(\{S'_j \in \{\text{ the sets }\} \vert j \in J\}\):
\(\times_{j \in J} S'_j\): \(= \text{ the product set }\)
\(\{S_j \subseteq S'_j \vert j \in J\}\):
//

Statements:
\(\times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j) = (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\) where \(S^`_{j', j'} = S_{j'}\) and \(S^`_{j', j} = S'_j\) for each \(j \in J \setminus \{j'\}\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: see that \(\times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j) \subseteq (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\); Step 2: see that \((\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}) \subseteq \times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j)\); Step 3: conclude the proposition.

Step 1:

Let \(p \in \times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j)\) be any.

\(p^j \in S'_j \setminus S_j\) for each \(j \in J\).

\(p^j \notin S_j\) for each \(j \in J\).

For each \(j' \in J\), \(p^{j'} \notin S_{j'} = S^`_{j', j'}\), so, \(p \notin \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}\) for each \(j'\).

So, \(p \notin \cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}\).

So, \(p \in (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\).

So, \(\times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j) \subseteq (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\).

Step 2:

Let \(p \in (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\) be any.

\(p \notin \cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}\).

\(p \notin \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}\) for each \(j' \in J\).

\(p^{j'} \notin S^`_{j', j'} = S_{j'}\) for each \(j' \in J\), because for each \(j \in J \setminus \{j'\}\), \(p^j \in S'_j = S^`_{j', j}\).

\(p^{j'} \in S'_{j'} \setminus S_{j'}\) for each \(j' \in J\).

So, \(p \in \times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j)\).

So, \((\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j}) \subseteq \times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j)\).

Step 3:

\(\times_{j \in J} (S'_j \setminus S_j) = (\times_{j \in J} S'_j) \setminus (\cup_{j' \in J} \times_{j \in J} S^`_{j', j})\).
