Relation embeddings from the naturals #
This file allows translation from monotone functions ℕ → α
to order embeddings ℕ ↪ α
and
defines the limit value of an eventually-constant sequence.

If f
is a strictly r
-increasing sequence, then this returns f
as an order embedding.

An order embedding from ℕ

nat.subtype.of_nat
as an order isomorphism between ℕ
and an infinite decidable subset.
The "monotone chain condition" below is sometimes a convenient form of well foundedness.
Given an eventually-constant monotone sequence a₀ ≤ a₁ ≤ a₂ ≤ ...
in a partially-ordered
type, monotonic_sequence_limit_index a
is the least natural number n
for which aₙ
reaches the
constant value. For sequences that are not eventually constant, monotonic_sequence_limit_index a
is defined, but is a junk value.
The constant value of an eventually-constant monotone sequence a₀ ≤ a₁ ≤ a₂ ≤ ...
in a
partially-ordered type.
