Starting Context



Target Context


  • The reader will have a description and a proof of the proposition that for any product set, any subset, and any element of any subproduct, the cross section of the subset by the element is contained in the projection of the subset onto the complemental subproduct.

Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(J'\): \(\in \{\text{ the possibly uncountable index sets }\}\)
\(\{S_{j'} \in \{\text{ the sets }\} \vert j' \in J'\}\):
\(\times_{j' \in J'} S_{j'}\): \(= \text{ the product set }\)
\(Q\): \(\subseteq \times_{j' \in J'} S_{j'}\)
\(J\): \(\subset J'\), such that \(J \neq \emptyset\)
\(\times_{j \in J} S_j\): \(= \text{ the product set }\)
\(\times_{j \in J} s_j\): \(\in \times_{j \in J} S_j\)
\(\pi^{J' \setminus J}\): \(: \times_{j' \in J'} S_{j'} \to \times_{l \in J' \setminus J} S_l\), \(= \text{ the projection }\)
//

Statements:
\(Q_{[\times_{j \in J} s_j]} \subseteq \pi^{J' \setminus J} (Q)\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: see that for each \(\times_{l \in J' \setminus J} s_l \in Q_{[\times_{j \in J} s_j]}\), \(\times_{l \in J' \setminus J} s_l \in \pi^{J' \setminus J} (Q)\).

Step 1:

Let \(\times_{l \in J' \setminus J} s_l \in Q_{[\times_{j \in J} s_j]}\) be any.

\(\times_{j' \in J'} s_{j'} \in Q\).

\(\pi^{J' \setminus J} (\times_{j' \in J'} s_{j'}) = \times_{l \in J' \setminus J} s_l\), which means that \(\times_{l \in J' \setminus J} s_l \in \pi^{J' \setminus J} (Q)\).

So, \(Q_{[\times_{j \in J} s_j]} \subseteq \pi^{J' \setminus J} (Q)\).
