E677 forces every left multiplication to be bijective

FiniteMagmaE677.left_bijective

Let AAA be a finite (possibly empty) type with arbitrary total operation ⋄:A×A→A\diamond:A\times A\to A⋄:A×A→A. If E677 holds, then

∀y∈A,(x↦y⋄x) is bijective.\forall y\in A,\quad (x\mapsto y\diamond x)\text{ is bijective}.∀y∈A,(x↦y⋄x) is bijective.

This is the left-multiplication statement corresponding to part (i) of Lemma 13.1.

What the Lean code literally says, in plain math · gpt-5.6-luna

For every universe u, finite type α:Type u\alpha:\mathrm{Type}\,uα:Typeu equipped with a Fintype instance (possibly empty), arbitrary binary operation op⁡:α→α→α\operatorname{op}:\alpha\to\alpha\to\alphaop:α→α→α, and proposition h asserting that for all a,b∈αa,b\in\alphaa,b∈α, a=op⁡(b,op⁡(a,op⁡(op⁡(b,a),b)))a=\operatorname{op}\bigl(b,\operatorname{op}(a,\operatorname{op}(\operatorname{op}(b,a),b))\bigr)a=op(b,op(a,op(op(b,a),b))), and every y∈αy\in\alphay∈α, the unary map x↦op⁡(y,x)x\mapsto\operatorname{op}(y,x)x↦op(y,x) is bijective from α\alphaα to α\alphaα: it is injective, so op⁡(y,p)=op⁡(y,q)\operatorname{op}(y,p)=\operatorname{op}(y,q)op(y,p)=op(y,q) implies p=qp=qp=q, and surjective, so every z∈αz\in\alphaz∈α has some p∈αp\in\alphap∈α with op⁡(y,p)=z\operatorname{op}(y,p)=zop(y,p)=z; when α\alphaα is empty, the quantification over y is vacuous.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
