Definition df-blockliftmap

Description: Define the block lift map. Given a relation R and a carrier/set A , we form the block relation ( R |X.`'E ) (i.e., "follow both R and element"), restricted to A (or, equivalently, "follow both R and elements-of-A", cf. xrnres2 ). Then map each domain element m to its coset [ m ] under that restricted block relation.

For m in the domain, which requires ( m e. A /\ m =/= (/) /\ [ m ] R =/= (/) ) (cf. eldmxrncnvepres ), the fiber has the product form [ m ] ( R |X. ``' E ) = ( [ m ] R X. m ) , so the block relation lifts a block m to the rectangular grid "external labels X. ` internal members", see dfblockliftmap2 . Contrast: while the adjoined lift, via ( R u.`' _E ) ` , attaches neighbors and members in a single relation (see dfadjliftmap2 ), the block lift labels each internal member by each external neighbor.

For the general case and a two-stage construction (first block lift, then adjoin membership), see the comments to df-adjliftmap . For the equilibrium condition, see df-blockliftfix and dfblockliftfix2 . (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 24-Jan-2026)
