Order Extension and Szpilrajn's Extension Theorem

Peter Zeller 📧 and Lukas Stevens 🌐

July 27, 2019

Abstract

This entry is concerned with the principle of order extension, i.e. the extension of an order relation to a total order relation. To this end, we prove a more general version of Szpilrajn's extension theorem employing terminology from the book "Consistency, Choice, and Rationality" by Bossert and Suzumura. We also formalize theorem 2.7 of their book.
