Properties of subtraction between natural numbers.
This file is mostly OBSOLETE now, see module PeanoNat.Nat instead.
minus is now an alias for Nat.sub, which is defined in Init/Nat.v as:
Fixpoint sub (n m:nat) : nat := match n, m with | S k, S l => k - l | _, _ => n end where "n - m" := (sub n m) : nat_scope.
Notation minus_diag := Nat.sub_diag (only parsing).
Lemma minus_diag_reverse n : 0 = n - n.
Notation minus_n_n := minus_diag_reverse.
Lemma plus_minus n m p : n = m + p -> p = n - m.
Lemma minus_plus n m : n + m - n = m.
Lemma le_plus_minus_r n m : n <= m -> n + (m - n) = m.
Lemma le_plus_minus n m : n <= m -> m = n + (m - n).
Notation minus_le_compat_r :=
Nat.sub_le_mono_r (only parsing).
Notation minus_le_compat_l :=
Nat.sub_le_mono_l (only parsing).
Notation le_minus := Nat.le_sub_l (only parsing). Notation lt_minus := Nat.sub_lt (only parsing).
Lemma lt_O_minus_lt n m : 0 < n - m -> m < n.
Theorem not_le_minus_0 n m : ~ m <= n -> n - m = 0.
