Definition df-inf 9438
Description: Define the infimum of class 𝐴. It is meaningful when 𝑅 is a relation that strictly orders 𝐵 and when the infimum exists. For example, 𝑅 could be 'less than', 𝐵 could be the set of real numbers, and 𝐴 could be the set of all positive reals; in this case the infimum is 0. The infimum is defined as the supremum using the converse ordering relation. In the given example, 0 is the supremum of all reals (greatest real number) for which all positive reals are greater.
