Morphisms in an allegory🔗

This module defines a couple of important classes of morphisms that can be found in an allegory.

Reflexive morphisms🔗

A morphism $f : X \to X$ in an allegory is reflexive if $id \leq f .$

is-reflexive : Hom x x → Type _
is-reflexive f = id ≤ f

The composition of two reflexive morphisms is reflexive, and the identity morphism is trivially reflexive.

reflexive-id : is-reflexive (id {x})
reflexive-id = ≤-refl

reflexive-∘ : is-reflexive f → is-reflexive g → is-reflexive (f ∘ g)
reflexive-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-refl g-refl =
  id      =⟨ sym (idl _) ⟩=
  id ∘ id ≤⟨ f-refl ◆ g-refl ⟩≤
  f ∘ g ≤∎

The intersection of reflexive morphisms is reflexive.

reflexive-∩ : is-reflexive f → is-reflexive g → is-reflexive (f ∩ g)
reflexive-∩ f-refl g-refl = ∩-univ f-refl g-refl

The dual of a reflexive morphism is also reflexive.

reflexive-dual : is-reflexive f → is-reflexive (f †)
reflexive-dual {f = f} f-refl =
  dual-≤ᵣ A $
  id † =⟨ dual-id A ⟩=
  id   ≤⟨ f-refl ⟩≤
  f    ≤∎

If $f \leq g$ and $f$ is reflexive, then $g$ is reflexive.

reflexive-≤ : f ≤ g → is-reflexive f → is-reflexive g
reflexive-≤ w f-refl = ≤-trans f-refl w

If $f$ is reflexive, then $id \leq f \cap f^{o} .$

reflexive→diagonal
  : is-reflexive f → id ≤ f ∩ f †
reflexive→diagonal f-refl = ∩-univ f-refl (reflexive-dual f-refl)

Symmetric morphisms🔗

A morphism $f : X \to X$ is symmetric if $f \leq f^{o} .$

is-symmetric : Hom x x → Type _
is-symmetric f = f ≤ f †

The identity morphism is trivially symmetric.

symmetric-id : is-symmetric (id {x})
symmetric-id {x = x} = subst (id {x} ≤_) (sym $ dual-id A) (≤-refl {f = id {x}})

The composition of symmetric morphisms $f$ and $g$ is symmetric if $g f \leq f g .$

symmetric-∘
  : is-symmetric f → is-symmetric g
  → g ∘ f ≤ f ∘ g
  → is-symmetric (f ∘ g)
symmetric-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-sym g-sym w =
  f ∘ g     ≤⟨ f-sym ◆ g-sym ⟩≤
  f † ∘ g † =⟨ sym dual-∘ ⟩=
  (g ∘ f) † ≤⟨ dual-≤ w ⟩≤
  (f ∘ g) † ≤∎

The dual of a symmetric morphism is symmetric.

symmetric-dual : is-symmetric f → is-symmetric (f †)
symmetric-dual {f = f} f-sym = dual-≤ᵣ A $
  f † † =⟨ dual f ⟩=
  f     ≤⟨ f-sym ⟩≤
  f †   ≤∎

The intersection of symmetric morphisms is symmetric.

symmetric-∩ : is-symmetric f → is-symmetric g → is-symmetric (f ∩ g)
symmetric-∩ {f = f} {g = g} f-sym g-sym =
  f ∩ g     ≤⟨ ∩-pres f-sym g-sym ⟩≤
  f † ∩ g † =⟨ sym $ dual-∩ A ⟩=
  (f ∩ g) † ≤∎

If $f$ is symmetric, then it is equal to its dual.

symmetric→self-dual
  : is-symmetric f → f ≡ f †
symmetric→self-dual f-sym =
  ≤-antisym f-sym (dual-≤ₗ A f-sym)

Transitive morphisms🔗

A morphism $f : X \to X$ is transitive if $ff \leq f .$

is-transitive : Hom x x → Type _
is-transitive f = f ∘ f ≤ f

The identity morphism is transitive.

transitive-id : is-transitive (id {x})
transitive-id = ≤-eliml ≤-refl

The composition of two transitive morphisms $f$ and $g$ is transitive if $g f \leq f g .$

transitive-∘
  : is-transitive f → is-transitive g
  → g ∘ f ≤ f ∘ g
  → is-transitive (f ∘ g)
transitive-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-trans g-trans w =
  (f ∘ g) ∘ (f ∘ g) ≤⟨ ≤-extend-inner w ⟩≤
  (f ∘ f) ∘ (g ∘ g)   ≤⟨ f-trans ◆ g-trans ⟩≤
  f ∘ g             ≤∎

A useful little lemma is that if $f$ is transitive, then $(f \cap g) (f \cap h) \leq f .$

transitive-∩l : is-transitive f → (f ∩ g) ∘ (f ∩ h) ≤ f
transitive-∩l f-trans = ≤-trans (∩-le-l ◆ ∩-le-l) f-trans

transitive-∩r : is-transitive h → (f ∩ h) ∘ (g ∩ h) ≤ h
transitive-∩r h-trans = ≤-trans (∩-le-r ◆ ∩-le-r) h-trans

We can use these lemmas to show that the intersection of transitive morphisms is transitive.

transitive-∩
  : is-transitive f → is-transitive g → is-transitive (f ∩ g)
transitive-∩ {f = f} {g = g} f-trans g-trans =
  ∩-univ (transitive-∩l f-trans) (transitive-∩r g-trans)

If $f$ is transitive, then so is its dual.

transitive-dual : is-transitive f → is-transitive (f †)
transitive-dual {f = f} f-trans =
  f † ∘ f † =⟨ sym dual-∘ ⟩=
  (f ∘ f) † ≤⟨ dual-≤ f-trans ⟩≤
  f †       ≤∎

Cotransitive morphisms🔗

A morphism $f : X \to X$ is cotransitive if $f \leq ff .$

Warning

There is another notion of cotransitive relation, which stipulates that for all $x, y, z,$ if $R (x, z),$ then either $R (x, y)$ or $R (y, z) .$ This is a poor choice of a name, as it is not a transitive relation in $Rel^{co} .$

Other sources call cotransitive morphisms “symmetric idempotents”, though we avoid this terminology, as cotranstive morphisms are not symmetric.

is-cotransitive : Hom x x → Type _
is-cotransitive f = f ≤ f ∘ f

The identity morphism is cotransitive.

cotransitive-id : is-cotransitive (id {x})
cotransitive-id = ≤-introl ≤-refl

The composition of two cotransitive morphisms $f$ and $g$ is cotransitive if $f g \leq g f .$

cotransitive-∘
  : is-cotransitive f → is-cotransitive g
  → f ∘ g ≤ g ∘ f
  → is-cotransitive (f ∘ g)
cotransitive-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-cotrans g-cotrans w =
  f ∘ g             ≤⟨ f-cotrans ◆ g-cotrans ⟩≤
  (f ∘ f) ∘ (g ∘ g) ≤⟨ ≤-extend-inner w ⟩≤
  (f ∘ g) ∘ (f ∘ g) ≤∎

If the intersection of $f$ and $g$ is cotransitive, then $f \cap g \leq f g .$

cotransitive-∩-∘
  : is-cotransitive (f ∩ g)
  → f ∩ g ≤ f ∘ g
cotransitive-∩-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f∩g-cotrans =
  f ∩ g             ≤⟨ f∩g-cotrans ⟩≤
  (f ∩ g) ∘ (f ∩ g) ≤⟨ ∩-le-l ◆ ∩-le-r ⟩≤
  f ∘ g ≤∎

If $f$ is reflexive, then it is cotransitive.

reflexive→cotransitive
  : is-reflexive f → is-cotransitive f
reflexive→cotransitive {f = f} f-refl =
  f      =⟨ sym (idl f) ⟩=
  id ∘ f ≤⟨ f-refl ◀ f ⟩≤
  f ∘ f ≤∎

If $f$ is transitive and symmetric, then it is cotransitive.

transitive+symmetric→cotransitive
  : is-transitive f → is-symmetric f → is-cotransitive f
transitive+symmetric→cotransitive {f = f} f-trans f-sym =
  f           ≤⟨ ≤-conj f ⟩≤
  f ∘ f † ∘ f ≤⟨ f ▶ dual-≤ₗ A f-sym ◀ f ⟩≤
  f ∘ f ∘ f   ≤⟨ f ▶ f-trans ⟩≤
  f ∘ f       ≤∎

Coreflexive morphisms🔗

is-coreflexive : Hom x x → Type _
is-coreflexive f = f ≤ id

The composition of two coreflexive morphisms is coreflexive, and the identity morphism is trivially coreflexive.

coreflexive-∘ : is-coreflexive f → is-coreflexive g → is-coreflexive (f ∘ g)
coreflexive-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-corefl g-corefl =
  f ∘ g   ≤⟨ f-corefl ◆ g-corefl ⟩≤
  id ∘ id =⟨ idl _ ⟩=
  id      ≤∎

coreflexive-id : is-coreflexive (id {x})
coreflexive-id = ≤-refl

Coreflexive morphisms are closed under intersection.

coreflexive-∩
  : ∀ {x} {f g : Hom x x}
  → is-coreflexive f → is-coreflexive g → is-coreflexive (f ∩ g)
coreflexive-∩ {f = f} {g = g} f-corefl g-corefl =
  f ∩ g   ≤⟨ ∩-pres f-corefl g-corefl ⟩≤
  id ∩ id =⟨ ∩-idempotent ⟩=
  id      ≤∎

Coreflexive morphisms are closed under duals.

coreflexive-dual : is-coreflexive f → is-coreflexive (f †)
coreflexive-dual {f = f} f-corefl = dual-≤ₗ A $
  f    ≤⟨ f-corefl ⟩≤
  id   =⟨ sym $ dual-id A ⟩=
  id † ≤∎

If $f \leq g$ and $g$ is coreflexive, then $f$ is coreflexive.

coreflexive-≤ : f ≤ g → is-coreflexive g → is-coreflexive f
coreflexive-≤ w g-corefl = ≤-trans w g-corefl

If $f$ is coreflexive, then it is transitive, cotransitive, and symmetric. Coreflexive morphisms are also anti-symmetric, see coreflexive→antisymmetric.

coreflexive→transitive
  : is-coreflexive f → is-transitive f
coreflexive→transitive {f = f} f-corefl =
  f ∘ f  ≤⟨ f-corefl ◀ f ⟩≤
  id ∘ f =⟨ idl _ ⟩=
  f      ≤∎

coreflexive→cotransitive
  : is-coreflexive f → is-cotransitive f
coreflexive→cotransitive {f = f} f-corefl =
  f           ≤⟨ ≤-conj f ⟩≤
  f ∘ f † ∘ f ≤⟨ f ▶ ≤-eliml (coreflexive-dual f-corefl) ⟩≤
  f ∘ f       ≤∎

coreflexive→symmetric
  : is-coreflexive f → is-symmetric f
coreflexive→symmetric {f = f} f-corefl =
  f             ≤⟨ ≤-conj f ⟩≤
  f ∘ f † ∘ f   ≤⟨ f-corefl ◆ ≤-refl ◆ f-corefl ⟩≤
  id ∘ f † ∘ id =⟨ idl _ ∙ idr _ ⟩=
  f † ≤∎

As coreflexive morphisms are both transitive ( $ff \leq f)$ and cotransitive ( $f \leq ff),$ they are idempotent.

coreflexive→idempotent : is-coreflexive f → is-idempotent f
coreflexive→idempotent f-corefl =
  ≤-antisym (coreflexive→transitive f-corefl) (coreflexive→cotransitive f-corefl)

Furthermore, composition of coreflexive morphisms is equivalent to intersection.

coreflexive-∘-∩
  : ∀ {x} {f g : Hom x x}
  → is-coreflexive f → is-coreflexive g
  → f ∘ g ≡ f ∩ g
coreflexive-∘-∩ {f = f} {g = g} f-corefl g-corefl =
  ≤-antisym ≤-to ≤-from
  where
    ≤-to : f ∘ g ≤ f ∩ g
    ≤-to = ∩-univ (≤-elimr g-corefl) (≤-eliml f-corefl)

    ≤-from : f ∩ g ≤ f ∘ g
    ≤-from =
      cotransitive-∩-∘ $
      coreflexive→cotransitive $
      coreflexive-∩ f-corefl g-corefl

This has a useful corollary: coreflexive morphisms always commute!

coreflexive-comm
  : ∀ {x} {f g : Hom x x}
  → is-coreflexive f → is-coreflexive g
  → f ∘ g ≡ g ∘ f
coreflexive-comm f-corefl g-corefl =
  coreflexive-∘-∩ f-corefl g-corefl
  ·· ∩-comm
  ·· sym (coreflexive-∘-∩ g-corefl f-corefl)

Functional morphisms🔗

A morphism $f$ is functional when $f f^{o} \leq id .$ In $Rel,$ these are the relations $R ↪ X \times Y$ such that every $x$ is related to at most one $y .$ To see this, note that $R R^{o} (y, y^{'})$ is defined as $\exists (x : X) . R (x, y) \times R (x, y^{'}) .$ Therefore, $R R^{o} (y, y^{'}) \subseteq y = y^{'}$ means that if there exists any $x$ such that $R (x, y)$ and $R (x, y^{'}),$ then $y$ and $y^{'}$ must be equal. Put more plainly, every $x$ is related to at most one $y!$

is-functional : Hom x y → Type _
is-functional f = f ∘ f † ≤ id

First, a useful lemma: coreflexive morphisms are always functional.

coreflexive→functional : is-coreflexive f → is-functional f
coreflexive→functional f-corefl =
  coreflexive-∘ f-corefl (coreflexive-dual f-corefl)

This immediately implies that the identity morphism is functional.

functional-id : is-functional (id {x})
functional-id = coreflexive→functional coreflexive-id

Functional morphisms are closed under composition and intersection.

functional-∘ : is-functional f → is-functional g → is-functional (f ∘ g)
functional-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-func g-func =
  (f ∘ g) ∘ (f ∘ g) † ≤⟨ †-cancel-inner g-func ⟩≤
  f ∘ f †             ≤⟨ f-func ⟩≤
  id                  ≤∎

functional-∩ : is-functional f → is-functional g → is-functional (f ∩ g)
functional-∩ {f = f} {g = g} f-func g-func =
  (f ∩ g) ∘ (f ∩ g) †                       =⟨ ap ((f ∩ g) ∘_) (dual-∩ A) ⟩=
  (f ∩ g) ∘ (f † ∩ g †)                     ≤⟨ ∩-distrib ⟩≤

  id                                        ≤∎

Entire morphisms🔗

A morphism is entire when $id \leq f^{o} f .$ In $Rel,$ these are the relations $R ↪ X \times Y$ where each $x$ must be related to at least one $y .$ To see this, recall that $R^{o} R (x, x^{'})$ is defined as $\exists (y : Y) . R (x, y) \times R (x^{'}, y) .$ If $x = x^{'} \subseteq R^{o} R (x, x^{'}),$ then we can reduce this statement down to $\forall (x : X) .\exists (y : Y) . R (x, y) .$

is-entire : Hom x y → Type _
is-entire f = id ≤ f † ∘ f

Reflexive morphisms are always entire.

reflexive→entire : is-reflexive f → is-entire f
reflexive→entire f-refl =
  reflexive-∘ (reflexive-dual f-refl) f-refl

From this, we can deduce that the identity morphism is entire.

entire-id : is-entire (id {x})
entire-id = reflexive→entire reflexive-id

Entire morphisms are closed under composition.

entire-∘ : is-entire f → is-entire g → is-entire (f ∘ g)
entire-∘ {f = f} {g = g} f-entire g-entire =
  id                  ≤⟨ g-entire ⟩≤
  g † ∘ g             ≤⟨ g † ▶ ≤-introl f-entire ⟩≤
  g † ∘ (f † ∘ f) ∘ g =⟨ extendl (pulll (sym dual-∘)) ⟩=
  (f ∘ g) † ∘ (f ∘ g) ≤∎

Domains🔗

The domain of a morphism $f : X \to Y$ is defined as $id \cap (f^{o} f),$ denoted $dom (f) .$ In $Rel,$ the domain of a relation $R : X \times Y \to Ω$ is a relation $X \times X \to Ω$ that relates two elements $x, x^{'} : X$ whenever $x = x^{'},$ and $R (x, y)$ for some $y .$

domain : Hom x y → Hom x x
domain f = id ∩ f † ∘ f

The domain of a morphism is always coreflexive.

domain-coreflexive : ∀ (f : Hom x y) → is-coreflexive (domain f)
domain-coreflexive f = ∩-le-l

domain-elimr : f ∘ domain g ≤ f
domain-elimr = ≤-elimr (domain-coreflexive _)

domain-eliml : domain f ∘ g ≤ g
domain-eliml = ≤-eliml (domain-coreflexive _)

domain-idempotent : is-idempotent (domain f)
domain-idempotent = coreflexive→idempotent (domain-coreflexive _)

domain-dual : domain f † ≡ domain f
domain-dual = sym (symmetric→self-dual (coreflexive→symmetric (domain-coreflexive _)))

domain-comm : domain f ∘ domain g ≡ domain g ∘ domain f
domain-comm = coreflexive-comm (domain-coreflexive _) (domain-coreflexive _)

Furthermore, the domain enjoys the following universal property: Let $f : X \to Y$ and $g : X \to X$ such that $g$ is coreflexive. Then $dom (f) \leq g$ if and only if $f \leq f g .$

domain-universalr : is-coreflexive g → domain f ≤ g → f ≤ f ∘ g
domain-universalr {g = g} {f = f} g-corefl w =
  f                  ≤⟨ ∩-univ (≤-intror ≤-refl) ≤-refl ⟩≤
  (f ∘ id) ∩ f       ≤⟨ modular id f f ⟩≤
  f ∘ (id ∩ f † ∘ f) ≤⟨ f ▶ w ⟩≤
  f ∘ g              ≤∎

domain-universall : is-coreflexive g → f ≤ f ∘ g → domain f ≤ g
domain-universall {g = g} {f = f} g-corefl w =
  id ∩ (f † ∘ f)           ≤⟨ ∩-pres-r (≤-pushr w) ⟩≤
  id ∩ ((f † ∘ f) ∘ g)     =⟨ ∩-comm ⟩=
  ((f † ∘ f) ∘ g) ∩ id     ≤⟨ modular' g (f † ∘ f) id ⟩≤

  g                        ≤∎

This has a nice corollary: $f dom (f) = f .$

domain-absorb : ∀ (f : Hom x y) → f ∘ domain f ≡ f
domain-absorb f =
  ≤-antisym
    domain-elimr
    (domain-universalr (domain-coreflexive f) ≤-refl)

We can nicely characterize the domain of an intersection.

domain-∩ : domain (f ∩ g) ≡ id ∩ f † ∘ g
domain-∩ {f = f} {g = g} = ≤-antisym ≤-to ≤-from where
  ≤-to : domain (f ∩ g) ≤ id ∩ f † ∘ g

      (domain-coreflexive (f ∩ g))
      (≤-trans ∩-le-r (dual-≤ ∩-le-l ◆ ∩-le-r))

  ≤-from : id ∩ f † ∘ g ≤ domain (f ∩ g)
  ≤-from =
    id ∩ f † ∘ g                               ≤⟨ ∩-univ ∩-le-l (∩-univ (∩-univ ∩-le-r ∩-le-l) ∩-le-l ) ⟩≤

    id ∩ (f ∩ g) † ∘ (f ∩ g)                   ≤∎

Furthermore, the domain of $f g$ is contained in the domain of $g .$

domain-∘ : domain (f ∘ g) ≤ domain g
domain-∘ {f = f} {g = g} =
  domain-universall (domain-coreflexive g) $
  ≤-pushr (domain-universalr (domain-coreflexive g) ≤-refl)

If $f \leq g,$ then $dom (f) \leq dom (g) .$

domain-≤ : f ≤ g → domain f ≤ domain g
domain-≤ w = ∩-pres-r (dual-≤ w ◆ w)

The domain of the identity morphism is simply the identity morphism.

domain-id : domain (id {x}) ≡ id
domain-id = ≤-antisym ∩-le-l (∩-univ ≤-refl (≤-introl symmetric-id))

Characterizing composition of domains is somewhat more difficult, though it is possible. Namely, we shall show the following:

dom (f dom (g)) = dom (f) dom (g)

domain-smashr
  : ∀ (f : Hom x z) (g : Hom x y)
  → domain (f ∘ domain g) ≡ domain f ∘ domain g
domain-smashr f g = ≤-antisym ≤-to ≤-from where

We begin by noting that the composition $dom (f) dom (g)$ is coreflexive.

  fg-corefl : is-coreflexive (domain f ∘ domain g)
  fg-corefl = coreflexive-∘ (domain-coreflexive f) (domain-coreflexive g)

To show the forward direction, we can apply the universal property of domains to transform the goal into

f dom (g) \leq (f dom (g)) (dom (f) dom (g))

We can then solve this goal by repeatedly appealing to the fact that domains are coreflexive.

  ≤-to : domain (f ∘ domain g) ≤ domain f ∘ domain g
  ≤-to =
    domain-universall fg-corefl $
    f ∘ domain g                           =˘⟨ ap₂ _∘_ (domain-absorb f) domain-idempotent ⟩=˘
    (f ∘ domain f) ∘ (domain g ∘ domain g) =⟨ extendl (extendr domain-comm) ⟩=
    (f ∘ domain g) ∘ (domain f ∘ domain g) ≤∎

To show the reverse direction, we apply the universal property of the intersection, reducing the goal to

dom (f) dom (g) \leq (f dom (g))^{o} f dom (g)

We then solve the goal by an extended series of appeals to the coreflexivity of domains.

  ≤-from : domain f ∘ domain g ≤ domain (f ∘ domain g)
  ≤-from = ∩-univ fg-corefl $
    domain f ∘ domain g               =˘⟨ ap (domain f ∘_) domain-idempotent ⟩=˘
    domain f ∘ domain g ∘ domain g    =⟨ extendl domain-comm ⟩=

    domain g † ∘ domain f ∘ domain g  ≤⟨ domain g † ▶ ∩-le-r ◀ domain g ⟩≤
    domain g † ∘ (f † ∘ f) ∘ domain g =⟨ extendl (pulll (sym dual-∘)) ⟩=
    (f ∘ domain g) † ∘ f ∘ domain g   ≤∎

We can also characterize postcomposition by a domain, though this is restricted to an inequality in the general case.

domain-swapl
  : ∀ (f : Hom y z) (g : Hom x y)
  → domain f ∘ g ≤ g ∘ domain (f ∘ g)
domain-swapl f g =

We can strengthen this to an equality when $g$ is functional.

domain-swap
  : ∀ (f : Hom y z) (g : Hom x y)
  → is-functional g
  → domain f ∘ g ≡ g ∘ domain (f ∘ g)
domain-swap f g w =
  ≤-antisym (domain-swapl f g) $
  g ∘ (id ∩ (f ∘ g) † ∘ (f ∘ g))   ≤⟨ ∩-distribl ⟩≤
  g ∘ id ∩ g ∘ (f ∘ g) † ∘ (f ∘ g) ≤⟨ ∩-pres-r (≤-extendl (†-pulll w)) ⟩≤

We also note that domains are always functional.

domain-functional : (f : Hom x y) → is-functional (domain f)
domain-functional f = coreflexive→functional (domain-coreflexive f)

The domain of an entire morphism is the identity.

domain-entire : is-entire f → domain f ≡ id
domain-entire f-entire =
  ≤-antisym
    (domain-coreflexive _)
    (∩-univ ≤-refl f-entire)

Antisymmetric morphisms🔗

A morphism is anti-symmetric if $f \cap f^{o} \leq id .$

is-antisymmetric : Hom x x → Type _
is-antisymmetric f = f ∩ f † ≤ id

Identity morphisms are anti-symmetric.

antisymmetric-id
  : is-antisymmetric (id {x})
antisymmetric-id =
  id ∩ ⌜ id † ⌝ =⟨ ap! (dual-id A) ⟩=
  id ∩ id       =⟨ ∩-idempotent ⟩=
  id            ≤∎

If $f \leq g$ and $g$ is anti-symmetric, then $f$ is anti-symmetric.

antisymmetric-≤
  : f ≤ g → is-antisymmetric g → is-antisymmetric f

If $f$ is anti-symmetric and reflexive, then $f \cap f^{o} = id .$

  : is-reflexive f → is-antisymmetric f → f ∩ f † ≡ id

If $f$ is coreflexive, then it is anti-symmetric.

coreflexive→antisymmetric : is-coreflexive f → is-antisymmetric f
coreflexive→antisymmetric {f = f} f-corefl =
  f ∩ f † ≤⟨ ∩-pres f-corefl (coreflexive-dual f-corefl) ⟩≤
