ordering relation — A partial ordering on a set is a relation < that is transitive and reflexive and antisymmetric. That is, (i) x < y & y < z →x < z ; (ii) x < x ; (iii) x < y & y < x →x = y . If we add (iv) that at least one of x < y, x = y … Philosophy dictionary
Linear extension — In order theory, a branch of mathematics, a linear extension of a partial order is a linear order (or total order) that is compatible with the partial order. Contents 1 Definitions 2 Order extension principle 3 Related results … Wikipedia
Linear complex structure — In mathematics, a complex structure on a real vector space V is an automorphism of V that squares to the minus identity, −I. Such a structure on V allows one to define multiplication by complex scalars in a canonical fashion so as to regard V as… … Wikipedia
