Partial values of a type #
This file defines Part α, the partial values of a type.
o : Part α carries a proposition o.Dom, its domain, along with a function get : o.Dom → α, its
value. The rule is then that every partial value has a value but, to access it, you need to provide
a proof of the domain.
Part α behaves the same as Option α except that o : Option α is decidably none or some a
for some a : α, while the domain of o : Part α doesn't have to be decidable. That means you can
translate back and forth between a partial value with a decidable domain and an option, and
Option α and Part α are classically equivalent. In general, Part α is bigger than Option α.
In current mathlib, Part ℕ, aka PartENat, is used to move decidability of the order to
decidability of PartENat.find (which is the smallest natural satisfying a predicate, or ∞ if
there's none).
Main declarations #
Option-like declarations:
- Part.none: The partial value whose domain is- False.
- Part.some a: The partial value whose domain is- Trueand whose value is- a.
- Part.ofOption: Converts an- Option αto a- Part αby sending- noneto- noneand- some ato- some a.
- Part.toOption: Converts a- Part αwith a decidable domain to an- Option α.
- Part.equivOption: Classical equivalence between- Part αand- Option α. Monadic structure:
- Part.bind:- o.bind fhas value- (f (o.get _)).get _(- f omorally) and is defined when- oand- f (o.get _)are defined.
- Part.map: Maps the value and keeps the same domain. Other:
- Part.restrict:- Part.restrict p oreplaces the domain of- o : Part αby- p : Propso long as- p → o.Dom.
- Part.assert:- assert p fappends- pto the domains of the values of a partial function.
- Part.unwrap: Gets the value of a partial value regardless of its domain. Unsound.
Notation #
For a : α, o : Part α, a ∈ o means that o is defined and equal to a. Formally, it means
o.Dom and o.get _ = a.

We define several instances for constants and operations on Part α inherited from α.
