Band (order theory)

In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, a band in a vector lattice X is a subspace M of X that is solid and such that for all SM such that x = sup S exists in X, we have xM.[1] The smallest band containing a subset S of X is called the band generated by S in X.[1] A band generated by a singleton set is called a principal band.

Examples

For any subset S of a vector lattice X, the set of all elements of X disjoint from S is a band in X.[1]

If () is the usual space of real valued functions used to define Lps, then is countably order complete (i.e. each subset that is bounded above has a supremum) but in general is not order complete. If N is the vector subspace of all -null functions then N is a solid subset of that is not a band.[1]

Properties

The intersection of an arbitrary family of bands in a vector lattice X is a band in X.[1]

gollark: I knew your bots would break in the future, so I used game theory™ and backward induction™ to determine that I shouldn't vote.
gollark: Yes, I predicted this.

gollark: It's 3π assuming the standard radius of sqrt(3).
gollark: 3π.
