Definition df-mrc

Description: Define theMoore closure of a generating set, which is the smallest closed set containing all generating elements. Definition of Moore closure in Schechter p. 79. This generalizes topological closure ( mrccls ) and linear span ( mrclsp ).

A Moore closure operation N is (1) extensive, i.e., x C_ ( Nx ) for all subsets x of the base set ( mrcssid ), (2) isotone, i.e., x C_ y implies that ( Nx ) C_ ( Ny ) for all subsets x and y of the base set ( mrcss ), and (3) idempotent, i.e., ( N( Nx ) ) = ( Nx ) for all subsets x of the base set ( mrcidm .) Operators satisfying these three properties are in bijective correspondence with Moore collections, so these properties may be used to give an alternate characterization of a Moore collection by providing a closure operation N on the set of subsets of a given base set which satisfies (1), (2), and (3); the closed sets can be recovered as those sets which equal their closures (Section 4.5 in Schechter p. 82.)
