Theorem

Let $L = \struct {S, \vee, \wedge, \preceq}$ be a bounded below algebraic lattice.


Then:

$L$ is arithmetic

if and only if:

$\struct {\map K L, \precsim}$ is a lattice

where $\map K L$ denotes the compact subset of $L$:

$\mathord \precsim = \mathord \preceq \cap \paren {\map K L \times \map K L}$


Proof

Sufficient Condition

Define $K = \struct {\map K L, \precsim}$.

Let $x, y \in \map K L$.

By Compact Subset is Join Subsemilattice:

$x \vee_L y \in \map K L$

We will prove that

$x \vee_L y$ is upper bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $K$

Let $z \in \set {x, y}$.

By Join Succeeds Operands:

$z \preceq x \vee_L y$

By definition of $\precsim$:

$z \precsim v \vee_L y$

$\Box$


We will prove that

$\forall z \in \map K L: z$ is upper bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $K \implies x \vee_L y \precsim z$

Let $z \in \map K L$ such that

$z$ is upper bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $K$.

Then by definition of $\precsim$:

$z$ is upper bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $L$.

By definition of supremum:

$x \vee_L y \preceq z$

By definition of $\precsim$:

$x \vee_L y \precsim z$

$\Box$


Thus by definition of supremum:

$\set {x, y}$ admits a supremum in $K$.

Thus analogically:

$\set {x, y}$ admits an infimum in $K$.

Hence $K$ is lattice.

$\Box$


Necessary Condition

Let $K$ be a lattice.

Thus $L$ is algebraic.

It remains to prove that

$\map K L$ is meet closed.

Let $x, y \in \map K L$.

Define $X := {\inf_L \set {x, y} }^{\mathrm{compact} }$

By definition of algebraic:

$L$ satisfies the axiom of $K$-approximation.

By the axiom of $K$-approximation:

$\inf_L \set {x, y} = \sup_L X$

By definition of algebraic:

$X$ is directed and $L$ is up-complete.

By definition of up-complete:

$X$ admits a supremum in $L$.

By definition of lattice:

$\set {x, y}$ admits an infimum in $K$.

By definition of infimum:

$\inf_K \set {x, y}$ is lower bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $K$.

We will prove that

$X \subseteq x^{\mathrm{compact} } \cap y^{\mathrm{compact} }$

Let $z \in X$.

By definition of compact closure:

$z \preceq \inf_L \set {x, y}$ and $z$ is compact.

By definition of infimum:

$\inf_L \set {x, y}$ is lower bound for $\set {x, y}$

By definition of lower bound:

$\inf_L \set {x, y} \preceq x$ and $\inf_L \set {x, y} \preceq y$

By definition of transitivity:

$z \preceq x$ and $z \preceq y$

By definition of compact closure:

$z \in x^{\mathrm{compact} }$ and $z \in y^{\mathrm{compact} }$

Thus by definition of intersection:

$z \in x^{\mathrm{compact} } \cap y^{\mathrm{compact} }$

$\Box$


By Compact Closure is Intersection of Lower Closure and Compact Subset:

$X = \paren {\inf_L \set {x, y} }^\preceq \cap \map K L$

By Intersection is Subset:

$X \subseteq \map K L$

We will prove that:

$\inf_K \set {x, y}$ is upper bound for $X$ in $K$.

Let $z \in X$.

By definition of intersection:

$z \in x^{\mathrm{compact} }$ and $z \in y^{\mathrm{compact} }$

By definition of compact closure:

$z \preceq x$ and $z \preceq y$

By definition of $\precsim$:

$z \precsim x$ and $z \precsim y$

Thus by definition of infimum:

$z \precsim \inf_K \set {x, y}$

$\Box$


By definition of $\precsim$:

$\inf_K \set {x, y}$ is upper bound for $X$ in $L$.

By definition of supremum:

$\sup_L \set {x, y} \preceq \inf_K \set {x, y}$

By definition of supremum:

$\sup_K \set {x, y}$ is upper bound for $\set {x, y}$ in $K$.

By definition of upper bound:

$x \precsim \sup_K \set {x, y}$ and $y \precsim \sup_K \set {x, y}$

By definition of $\precsim$:

$x \preceq \sup_K \set {x, y}$ and $y \preceq \sup_K \set {x, y}$

By definition of infimum:

$\sup_K \set {x, y} \preceq \sup_L \set {x, y}$

By definition of antisymmetry:

$\sup_K \set {x, y} = \sup_L \set {x, y}$

Thus by definition of meet:

$x \wedge_L y \in \map K L$

$\blacksquare$
