Images and preimages of sets #
Main definitions #
-
preimage f t : Set α
: the preimage f⁻¹(t) (writtenf ⁻¹' t
in Lean) of a subset of β. -
range f : Set β
: the image ofuniv
underf
. Also works for{p : Prop} (f : p → α)
(unlikeimage
)

Inverse image #
Image of a set under a function #
A common special case of image_congr
Set.image
is monotone. See Set.image_subset
for the statement in terms of ⊆
.
Alias of Set.image_nonempty
.
If the only elements outside s
are those left fixed by σ
, then mapping by σ
has no effect.
Lemmas about the powerset and image. #
Lemmas about range of a function. #
Alias of the reverse direction of Set.range_iff_surjective
.
The image of a subsingleton is a subsingleton.
The preimage of a subsingleton under an injective map is a subsingleton.
If the image of a set under an injective map is a subsingleton, the set is a subsingleton.
If the preimage of a set under a surjective map is a subsingleton, the set is a subsingleton.
The preimage of a nontrivial set under a surjective map is nontrivial.
The image of a nontrivial set under an injective map is nontrivial.
If the image of a set is nontrivial, the set is nontrivial.
If the preimage of a set under an injective map is nontrivial, the set is nontrivial.

We make this the simp lemma instead of range_coe
. The reason is that if we write
for s : Set α
the function (↑) : s → α
, then the inferred implicit arguments of (↑)
are
↑α (fun x ↦ x ∈ s)
