Definition df-cllaw

Description: The closure law for binary operations, see definitions of laws A0. and M0. in section 1.1 of Hall p. 1, or definition 1 in BourbakiAlg1 p. 1: the value of a binary operation applied to two operands of a given sets is an element of this set. By this definition, the closure law is expressed as binary relation: a binary operation is related to a set by clLaw if the closure law holds for this binary operation regarding this set. Note that the binary operation needs not to be a function. (Contributed by AV, 7-Jan-2020)
