DefinitionDiscrete noncrossing partition#✓fully proved

For a natural number \(n\), the discrete noncrossing partition of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) is the finest partition of this set, whose blocks are the singletons \(\{a\}\) for \(a \in \{0, \dots, n-1\}\); it is noncrossing.

DefinitionThe indiscrete noncrossing partition#✓fully proved

For a natural number \(n\), the indiscrete noncrossing partition of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) is the coarsest partition of this set: its only block is the whole set when \(n > 0\), and it has no blocks when \(n = 0\). It is noncrossing.

TheoremThe block of a point in the discrete noncrossing partition#✓fully proved

For every natural number \(n\) and every \(a \in \{0, \dots, n-1\}\), the block containing \(a\) in the discrete noncrossing partition of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) is the singleton \(\{a\}\).

TheoremThe block of a point in the indiscrete noncrossing partition#✓fully proved

For every natural number \(n\) and every \(a \in \{0, \dots, n-1\}\), the block containing \(a\) in the indiscrete noncrossing partition of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) is the whole set \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\).

For \(n = 0\) there is no such \(a\), so the statement is vacuous.
