	Total order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A set paired with an associated total order on it is called a totally ordered set, a linearly ordered set, a simply ordered set, or a chain.
		Thus a total order is also a partial order, that is, a binary relation which is reflexive, antisymmetric and transitive.
		Sets ordered by inclusion (A < B iff A is a subset of B) are in general not totally ordered (neither {1} < {2} nor {2} < {1}) However, frequently special collections of sets turn out to be totally ordered by inclusion.

	Station Information - Total order
		In mathematics, a total order or linear order on a set X is a binary relation that is reflexive, antisymmetric, transitive and total.
		Alternatively, one may define a totally ordered set as a particular kind of lattice, namely one in which we have {a v b, a ^ b} = {a, b} for all a, b.
		Similarly, the unique smallest totally ordered set with neither an upper nor a lower bound is the integers.

	PlanetMath: well ordered set (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		A well-ordered set is a totally ordered set in which every nonempty subset has a least member.
		An example of well-ordered set is the set of positive integers with the standard order relation
		This is version 11 of well ordered set, born on 2001-10-17, modified 2005-07-26.

	Order topology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The open sets in X are the sets that are a union of (possibly infinitely many) such open intervals and rays.
		The left order topology on X is the topology whose open sets consist of intervals of the form (a, ∞).
		For example, the left or right order topology on a bounded set provides an example of a compact space that is not Hausdorff.

		A total order or linear order on a set X is a binary relation that is reflexive, antisymmetric, transitive and total.
		The totally ordered set X turns into a topological space if we define a subset to be open if and only if it is a union of (possibly infinitely many) such open intervals.
		The unique smallest unbounded totally ordered set which also happens to be dense in the sense that (a, b) is non-empty for every a < b, is the rational numbers.

	Dedekind cut - Freepedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In mathematics, a Dedekind cut in a totally ordered set S is a partition of it, (A, B), such that A is closed downwards (meaning that for any element x in S, if a is in A and x ≤ a, then x is in A as well) and B is closed upwards.
		In this way, the set of all Dedekind cuts is itself a linearly ordered set, and, moreover, it does have the least-upper-bound property, i.e., its every nonempty subset that has an upper bound has a least upper bound.
		More generally, in a partially ordered set S, the set of all nonempty downwardly closed subsets (also called order ideals) is a set partially ordered by inclusion, and in the same way we embed S within a larger partially ordered set that, generally unlike the original set S, does have the least-upper-bound property.

		Members of a partially ordered set (poset) may be compared in a more linear fashion.
		If S is a totally ordered set such that every nonempty subset has a least element then S is well ordered.
		And, unlike the elements of a set, the order of the components is important.

		Any (totally) ordered set which has this property is said to be well-ordered.
		Formally an ordinal number is any set which is (i) transitive (every member is a subset) and (ii) strictly well-ordered by the membership relation.
		The set is also well-ordered because % is a member of {%}, and % and {%} are both members of {%,{%}}.

		An EACL entry consists of a positive or negative access right and four condition blocks: a set of pre-conditions, a set of request-result conditions, a set of mid-conditions and a set of post-conditions.
		An ordered evaluation approach is easier to implement as it allows only partial evaluation of an EACL and resolves the authorization conflicts.
		The problem with this approach is that it requires total ordering among authorizations.

		Directed sets are generalizations of totally ordered sets.
		The set of natural numbers N with the ordinary order ≤ is a directed set (and so is every totally ordered set).
		Directed subsets are most commonly used in domain theory, where one studies orders for which these sets are required to have a least upper bound.
