pi.rels {multiplex}

\pi-Relations

Description

A function to establish the \pi-relations of a partially ordered structure comming from a 'Pacnet' class

Usage

pi.rels(x, po.incl, vc, po)

Arguments

x

an object of a 'Pacnet' class

po.incl

(optional and logical) should the partial order be included in the outcome?

vc

(optional) vector of the induced inclusions to be computed

po

(optional) the partial order structure

Details

This function process the outcome of the Pacnet report by adding induced inclusions to partial order, the minimal element of the lattice of congruence relations. Such type of structure serves for the decomposition of a partially ordered semigroup structure.

Value

An object of the 'Pi.rels' class

pi

the \pi-relations, eventually with the partial order

mca

the meet-complements of atoms
