Scott's Theorem is a fundamental result in lattice theory that states a complete lattice can be represented as the collection of lower sets of a poset (partially ordered set) when every element is the join of some subset of elements. This theorem connects the concepts of complete lattices and continuous lattices, showing that every continuous lattice can be derived from the lower sets of its elements, highlighting their structural properties and relationships.
congrats on reading the definition of Scott's Theorem. now let's actually learn it.
