inclusive
In domain theory, a predicate P : D -> Bool is
inclusive iff
For any chain C, a subset of D, and
for all c in C,
P(c) => P(lub C)
In other words, if the predicate holds for all elements of an
increasing sequence then it holds for their least upper
bound.
("lub is written in LaTeX as \sqcup).
