let w1, w2, w3 be Element of the carrier of S * ; :: thesis: ( w1 <= w2 & w2 <= w3 implies w1 <= w3 )
assume that
A1: w1 <= w2 and
A2: w2 <= w3 ; :: thesis: w1 <= w3

for i being set st i in dom w1 holds
for s1, s2 being SortSymbol of S st s1 = w1 . i & s2 = w3 . i holds
s1 <= s2
proof
let i be set ; :: thesis: ( i in dom w1 implies for s1, s2 being SortSymbol of S st s1 = w1 . i & s2 = w3 . i holds
s1 <= s2 )

assume A7: i in dom w1 ; :: thesis: for s1, s2 being SortSymbol of S st s1 = w1 . i & s2 = w3 . i holds
s1 <= s2

reconsider s3 = w1 . i, s4 = w2 . i, s5 = w3 . i as SortSymbol of S by A4, A6, A7, PARTFUN1:4;
A8: ( s3 <= s4 & s4 <= s5 ) by A1, A2, A4, A7;

assume ( s1 = w1 . i & s2 = w3 . i ) ; :: thesis: s1 <= s2
hence s1 <= s2 by A8, ORDERS_2:3; :: thesis: verum

hence w1 <= w3 by A3, A5; :: thesis: verum
