Definition df-pm 6664

Description: Define the partial mapping operation. A partial function from B to A is a function from a subset of B to A. The set of all partial functions from B to A is written ( A ^pm B ) (see pmvalg 6672). A notation for this operation apparently does not appear in the literature. We use ^pm to distinguish it from the less general set exponentiation operation ^m (df-map 6663) . See mapsspm 6695 for its relationship to set exponentiation. (Contributed by NM, 15-Nov-2007.)
