10 Meet-semilattice of differences

10.1 Constructors

10.1-1 MeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences
‣ MeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences( L )( attribute )

Returns: a CAP category

Construct the meet-semilattice of differences from the lattice L.

10.1-2 \-
‣ \-( A, B )( operation )
‣ FormalDifferenceOfNormalizedObjects( u )( operation )

Form the formal single difference object A - B. The expression A - 0 := A - InitialObject( CapCategory( A ) ). The expression - A := TerminalObject( CapCategory( A ) ) - A. FormalDifferenceOfNormalizedObjects assumes that A and B are normalized

10.2 Operations

10.2-1 MinuendAndSubtrahendInUnderlyingLattice
‣ MinuendAndSubtrahendInUnderlyingLattice( A )( operation )

Returns: a pair of objects in a thin category

A pair in the underlying lattice representing the formal single difference A.

10.2-2 DistinguishedSubtrahend
‣ DistinguishedSubtrahend( A )( operation )

Returns: an object in a thin category

The output S should satisfy A.I - S = A. The standard method returns NormalizedDistinguishedSubtrahend( A ) if HasNormalizedDistinguishedSubtrahend( A ) = true or PreDistinguishedSubtrahend( A ) if HasPreDistinguishedSubtrahend( A ) = true. The remaining behavior is unspecified.

10.3 GAP categories

10.3-1 IsMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences
‣ IsMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences( arg )( filter )

Returns: true or false

The GAP category of a meet-semilattice of single differences.

10.3-2 IsObjectInMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences
‣ IsObjectInMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences( object )( filter )

Returns: true or false

The GAP category of objects in a meet-semilattice of differences.

10.3-3 IsMorphismInMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences
‣ IsMorphismInMeetSemilatticeOfSingleDifferences( morphism )( filter )

Returns: true or false

The GAP category of morphisms in a meet-semilattice of differences.
