Finite lattice approximation for monotone clique circuits (source code)

= Finite lattice approximation for monotone clique circuits

Take upward-closed <set families> of subsets of $[n]$ of size at most $\ell$, closed under the forcing rule in <Razborov closure>. Normalize any family containing a set of size at most one to the full family, since its clique predicate is identically true. Intersection is the <meet in a lattice>; closure of the union is the <join in a lattice>. A family represents the <graphs> containing a <clique> on at least one of its members. The approximate meet can lose positive inputs and the approximate join can acquire negative inputs. The <Razborov gate-by-gate approximation lemma> charges output errors to those local errors.
