well quasi ordering


Let Q be a set and a quasi-order on Q. AninfiniteMathworldPlanetmath sequencePlanetmathPlanetmath in Q is referred to as bad if forall i<j𝐍, ai≾̸aj holds; otherwise it is calledgood. Note that an antichainMathworldPlanetmath is obviously a bad sequence.

A quasi-ordering on Q is a well-quasi-ordering (wqo) if for every infinite sequence is good. Every well-ordering is a well-quasi-ordering.

The following propositionPlanetmathPlanetmath gives equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath definitions forwell-quasi-ordering:

Proposition 1.

Given a set Q and a binary relationMathworldPlanetmath over Q, thefollowing conditions are equivalent:

  • (Q,) is a well-quasi-ordering;

  • (Q,) has no infinite (ω-) strictly decreasing chainsand no infinite antichains.

  • Every linear extensionMathworldPlanetmath of Q/ is a well-order, where is the equivalence relation and Q/ is the set of equivalence classesMathworldPlanetmath induced by .

  • Any infinite (ω-) Q-sequence contains anincreasing chain.

The equivalence of WQO to the second and the fourth conditions is proved by the infinite version of Ramsey’s theorem.
