Semiconjugate elements of a semigroup #
Main definitions #
We say that x
is semiconjugate to y
by a
(SemiconjBy a x y
), if a * x = y * a
.
In this file we provide operations on SemiconjBy _ _ _
.
In the names of these operations, we treat a
as the “left” argument, and both x
and y
as
“right” arguments. This way most names in this file agree with the names of the corresponding lemmas
for Commute a b = SemiconjBy a b b
. As a side effect, some lemmas have only _right
version.
Lean does not immediately recognise these terms as equations, so for rewriting we need syntax like
rw [(h.pow_right 5).eq]
rather than just rw [h.pow_right 5]
.
This file provides only basic operations (mul_left
, mul_right
, inv_right
etc). Other
operations (pow_right
, field inverse etc) are in the files that define corresponding notions.
If a
semiconjugates an additive unit x
to an additive unit y
, then it
semiconjugates -x
to -y
.
If a
semiconjugates a unit x
to a unit y
, then it semiconjugates x⁻¹
to y⁻¹
.
If an additive unit a
semiconjugates x
to y
, then -a
semiconjugates y
to
x
.
If a unit a
semiconjugates x
to y
, then a⁻¹
semiconjugates y
to x
.
a
semiconjugates x
to a + x + -a
.
a
semiconjugates x
to a * x * a⁻¹
.
