In {domain theory}, a {predicate} P : D -> Bool is

inclusive iff

For any {chain} C, a subset of D, and

for all c in C,

P(c) ◦> P(lub C)

In other words, if the predicate holds for all elements of an

increasing sequence then it holds for their {least upper

bound}.

("lub is written in {LaTeX} as {\sqcup}).
