A glb (short for greatest lower bound) for a family of elements is, as the name implies, a greatest element among the lower bounds of the Being a lower bound means that we have for all Being the greatest lower bound means that if we’re given some other satisfying (for each then we have
A more common word to use for “greatest lower bound” is
“meet”. But since “meet” is a fairly uninformative name, and “glb”
(pronounced “glib”) is just plain fun to say, we stick with the non-word
for the indexed concept. However, if we’re talking about the glb of a
binary family, then we use the word “meet”. The distinction
here is entirely artificial, and it’s just because we can’t reuse the
identifier is-glb for these two
slightly different cases. Summing up: to us, a meet is a glb of two
elements.
