How to prove associativity of lattice?












1














(a^b)^c = a^(b^c) I can understand intuitively that it is right but i am not able to write the proof.



Also i didn't understood the answer in Associativity of a lattice

          If you're familiar with school course of informatics, just remember about AND (logic symbol) and act like ^ is AND.



          Or you can draw a simple picture. You need: a circle, b circle, c circle. Draw a picture as a overlaps with b, and another picture as b overlaps with c. Then add to each picture a third circle which overlaps with those two in their intersection. Voila!



          [edit] Note about informatics. Imagine that ^ is multiplication and a,b, and c can be either 1 or 0 (doesn't matter in this problem, though). Then (a*b)c=a(b*c).



          Also, "a", "b", or "c" in my text is more like "rule about a/b/c", not a,b,c themselves. This allows us to use informatics principles: rule can be either suiting (1) or not (0).
