Minimal super set #
i. Overview #
The minimally super set of a spectrum of charges x
is the finite set of
spectrums of charges y
such that x ⊆ y
and there is no z
such that x ⊆ z ⊂ y
.
The minimal super set is defined using a finite set of possible charges in the 5
-bar and 10
representations of su(5)
. This is to ensure that the minimal super set is itself finite.
In this file we define the minimal super set and prove some basic properties of it.

A. The minimal super set #
We define the minimal super set.
Given a collection of charges x
in ofFinset S5 S10
,
the minimimal charges y
in ofFinset S5 S10
which are a super sets of x
.

Instances For
A.1. Members of the minimal super set are super sets #
We show the basic property of a member y ∈ minimalSuperSet S5 S10 x
, that is
that they are indeed super sets, namely x ⊆ y
.
A.2. Self is not a member of the minimal super set #
A charge spectrum is not a member of its own minimal super set. We give two different forms of this result.
A.3. Cardinality of member of the minimal super set #
We show that any member y
of the minimal super set of x
has cardinality one more than
that of x
. I.e. it contains exactly one more unique charge.
A.4. Inserting charges and minimal super sets #
We show that inserting a charge from S5
or S10
into x
's Q5
or Q10
respectively
which is not already present in x
gives a member of the minimal super set.
Likewise we show that if x
has no qHd
or qHu
charge, then inserting a charge from S5
into qHd
or qHu
respectively gives a member of the minimal super set.
A.5. Existence of a minimal super set member between two charges #
We show that if y
has charges from S5
and S10
and is a super set of x
but not equal to x
then there is a z
in the minimal super set of x
which is a subset of y
.
This shows, in a sense, that minimalSuperSet
is "minimal", although it does not
go all the way to doing that. In particular, it does show that every minimal super set
is a member of minimalSuperSet
.
B. Induction properties on the minimal super set #
We now prove a number of induction properties related to mininmal super sets.
B.1. Lifting propositions from minimal super sets to super sets #
We show that for a proposition p
on charge spectra with the property that
it is true on all minimial super sets of x
if it true on x
itself, then it is true on all
super sets of x
if it is true for x
itself.
B.2. Closure of multisets based on proposition for minimial super sets #
We show that for a predicate p
on charge spectrum,
if a multiset T
of complete charge spectra has the property that
- all insersions of a
q10
charge either ends inT
or failsp
. - all insertions of a
q5
charge either ends inT
or failsp
. Then ifx
is inT
then all members of the minimal super set ofx
either are inT
or failp
.
B.3. Closure of multisets based on propositions #
We show that for a predicate p
on charge spectrum which if false on a charge spectrum
is also false on all its super sets,
if a multiset T
of complete charge spectra has the property that
- all insersions of a
q10
charge either ends inT
or failsp
. - all insertions of a
q5
charge either ends inT
or failsp
. Then ify
is not inT
then it does not satisfyp
.
We first prove this with an explicit induction argument, n
, and then
we prove it in a more user friendly way.
For a proposition p
if (T.uniqueMap4 (insert q10.1)).toMultiset.filter p
and (T.uniqueMap3 (insert q5.1)).toMultiset.filter p
for all q5 ∈ S5
and q10 ∈ S10
then
if x ∈ T
and x ⊆ y
if y ∉ T
then ¬ p y
.
This assumes that all charges in T
are complete, and that p
satisfies
x ⊆ y → ¬ p x → ¬ p y
.
