Maximal and minimal elements: Examples, Overview & Existence and uniqueness

In mathematics, especially in order theory, a maximal element of a subset S {\displaystyle S} of some preordered set is an element of S {\displaystyle S} that is not smaller than any other element in S {\displaystyle S} . A minimal element of a subset S {\displaystyle S} of some preordered set is defined dually as an element of S {\displaystyle S} that…
