Definition df-mre

Description: Define aMoore collection, which is a family of subsets of a base set which preserve arbitrary intersection. Elements of a Moore collection are termedclosed; Moore collections generalize the notion of closedness from topologies ( cldmre ) and vector spaces ( lssmre ) to the most general setting in which such concepts make sense. Definition of Moore collection of sets in Schechter p. 78. A Moore collection may also be called aclosure system (Section 0.6 in Gratzer p. 23.) The nameMoore collection is after Eliakim Hastings Moore, who discussed these systems in Part I of Moore p. 53 to 76.

See ismre , mresspw , mre1cl and mreintcl for the major properties of a Moore collection. Note that a Moore collection uniquely determines its base set ( mreuni ); as such the disjoint union of all Moore collections is sometimes considered as U. ran Moore , justified by mreunirn .
