In [[mathematics]], the '''infimum''' (plural '''infima''') of a [[subset]] ''S'' of a [[partially ordered set]] ''T'' is the [[greatest element]] of ''T'' that is less than or equal to all elements of ''S''. Consequently the term '''greatest lower bound''' (abbreviated as '''glb''' or '''GLB''') is also commonly used. Infima of [[real number]]s are a common special case that is especially important in [[mathematical analysis|analysis]]. However, the general definition remains valid in the more abstract setting of [[order theory]] where arbitrary [[partially ordered set]]s are considered.

If the infimum exists, it is unique. If ''S'' contains a [[greatest element|least element]], then that element is the infimum; otherwise, the infimum does not belong to ''S'' (or does not exist). For instance, the positive real numbers do not have a least element, and their infimum is 0, which is not a positive real number.
 
The infimum is in a precise sense [[duality (order theory)|dual]] to the concept of a [[supremum]].
 
== Infima of real numbers ==
In [[mathematical analysis|analysis]] the infimum or greatest lower bound of a subset ''S'' of [[real numbers]] is denoted by inf(''S'') and is defined to be the biggest real number that is smaller than or equal to every number in ''S''. If no such number exists (because ''S'' is not bounded below), then we define inf(''S'') = &minus;∞. If ''S'' is [[empty set|empty]], we define inf(''S'') = ∞ (see [[extended real number line]]).
 
An important property of the real numbers is that every set of real numbers has an infimum (any bounded nonempty subset of the real numbers has an infimum in the non-extended real numbers).
 
Examples:

The "Infimum" or "Greatest Lower Bound" of the set of numbers 2, 3, 4 is 2. 1 would be a lower bound but not the "greatest lower bound" and hence not the "Infimum".

:<math>\inf\, \{ (-1)^n + 1/n : n = 1, 2, 3, \dots \} = -1.</math>
If a set has a smallest element, as in the first example, then the smallest element is the infimum for the set. (If the infimum is contained in the set, then it is also known as the [[minimum]]). As the last three examples show, the infimum of a set does not have to belong to the set.

The definition of infima easily generalizes to subsets of arbitrary [[partially ordered set]]s and as such plays a vital role in [[order theory]]. In this context, especially in [[lattice (order)|lattice theory]], greatest lower bounds are also called '''meets'''.
 
Formally, the ''infimum'' of a subset ''S'' of a partially ordered set (''P'', ≤) is an element ''a'' of ''P'' such that

2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon-There are just some of us all around who would never drive an suv or a minivan but need something practical for family duties. The Acura TSX is one in all my favorite cars in sedan form but I felt that the wagon deserved special mention for bringing luxury, style, class and driving fun into the family transportation segment.

When my hubby brought this finding to the eye of the Ft. Wayne Indiana Toyota dealer, i was told that they would look into the matter. After wasting 7 days before actually doing everything to change this lease, i was told exercises, diet tips too newer. The salesman never offered us this wonderful deal, and the sales manager told us their dealership gave us the best deal toyota tundra off road they would probably. In the same sentence the sales team leader told us we qualified for the cheaper offer. In all honesty they didn't give us the cheapest price they can have. They gave us the highest lease price we were willing with regard to. My credit score is excellent, but it wouldn't have designed a difference for this dealership. After we had shopped around precisely what you want our lease, we might have definitely got a new better deal.

Now, Certain understand why Toyota doesn't offer the SE with rear seat DVD entertainment since most parents discovered that to be an indispensible feature nowadays. Besides that toyota tundra tuning the 3.5 liter V6 emits a lion-like and throaty roar under heavy acceleration that your call don't expect from a clever minivan. Do note I did not have a chance to drive a car the 2011 Honda Odyssey yet when I had the outcome might happen to different. We'll see this year.

Brian Ickler will make his begin of 2011 in the Kyle Busch Motorsports #18 Dollar General Toyota Tundra at Texas Motor Speedway on Friday, June 10. The WinStar World Casino 400K is being run when partnered with the IZOD IndyCar Series Twin 275s on Saturday, June eleventh.

The level came when he was a college junior. He'd just won the co-angler division for this 1994 Bassmaster Top 100 on Lake Norman. Diet plans . only or even bass tournament he'd ever entered.

16-year-old Erik Jones brought home his second top finish because many races in the absolutely no. 51 SUV for Kyle Busch Motorsports, finishing ninth in Sunday's NC Education Lottery 200 at Rockingham Speedway. Jones started at the tail-end belonging to the field in 36th, dropping a lap early along. The "lucky dog" award put him back with the lead lap, and Jones climbed in the top 10 in morrison a pardon stages belonging to the 200-lap race, which was won by Kyle Larson.

Another disadvantage in the Platinum package continually that it adds more chrome trim with regard to an exterior overburdened with it and forces Toyota to stoop a new low no Japanese truck maker has ever gotten to. Yes, the Tundra Platinum comes standard with chrome wheels. They are as tacky just like the optional Red Rock Leather (that really looks orange) and the cheesy half wood/half leather steering interior.

Then either the CrewMax Limited Platinum Package which pulls out all of the stops with vented and heated seats, wood grain style trim and a sunroof. Three cab sizes can be had - regular, double and CrewMax. The Tundra also has three wheelbase and bed lengths. Quite a few options? Not what this means you can build ultimate truck, get style, performance and practicality and always be able to cover it.

A set T of real numbers (red and green balls), a subset S of T (green balls), and the infimum of S. Note that for finite sets the infimum and the minimum are equal.

In mathematics, the infimum (plural infima) of a subset S of a partially ordered set T is the greatest element of T that is less than or equal to all elements of S. Consequently the term greatest lower bound (abbreviated as glb or GLB) is also commonly used. Infima of real numbers are a common special case that is especially important in analysis. However, the general definition remains valid in the more abstract setting of order theory where arbitrary partially ordered sets are considered.

If the infimum exists, it is unique. If S contains a least element, then that element is the infimum; otherwise, the infimum does not belong to S (or does not exist). For instance, the positive real numbers do not have a least element, and their infimum is 0, which is not a positive real number.

The infimum is in a precise sense dual to the concept of a supremum.

Infima of real numbers

In analysis the infimum or greatest lower bound of a subset S of real numbers is denoted by inf(S) and is defined to be the biggest real number that is smaller than or equal to every number in S. If no such number exists (because S is not bounded below), then we define inf(S) = −∞. If S is empty, we define inf(S) = ∞ (see extended real number line).

An important property of the real numbers is that every set of real numbers has an infimum (any bounded nonempty subset of the real numbers has an infimum in the non-extended real numbers).

Examples:

Simple

The "Infimum" or "Greatest Lower Bound" of the set of numbers 2, 3, 4 is 2. 1 would be a lower bound but not the "greatest lower bound" and hence not the "Infimum".

Complex

If a set has a smallest element, as in the first example, then the smallest element is the infimum for the set. (If the infimum is contained in the set, then it is also known as the minimum). As the last three examples show, the infimum of a set does not have to belong to the set.

The notions of infimum and supremum are dual in the sense that

Infima in partially ordered sets

The definition of infima easily generalizes to subsets of arbitrary partially ordered sets and as such plays a vital role in order theory. In this context, especially in lattice theory, greatest lower bounds are also called meets.

Formally, the infimum of a subset S of a partially ordered set (P, ≤) is an element a of P such that

  1. ax for all x in S, (a is a lower bound) and
  2. for all y in P, if for all x in S, yx, then ya (a larger than any other lower bound).

Any element with these properties is necessarily unique, but in general no such element needs to exist. Consequently, orders for which certain infima are known to exist become especially interesting. More information on the various classes of partially ordered sets that arise from such considerations are found in the article on completeness properties.

The dual concept of infimum is given by the notion of a supremum or least upper bound. By the duality principle of order theory, every statement about suprema is thus readily transformed into a statement about infima. For this reason, all further results, details, and examples can be taken from the article on suprema.
