Set system of finite character

Set system of finite character

A family mathcal{F} of sets is of finite character provided it has the following properties:
#For each Ain mathcal{F}, every finite subset of A belongs to mathcal{F}.
#If every finite subset of a given set A belongs to mathcal{F}, then A belongs to mathcal{F}.

Example

Let "V" be a vector space, and let "F" be the family of linearly independent subsets of "V". Then "F" is a family of finite character (because a subset "X" ⊆ "V" is linearly dependent iff "X" has a finite subset which is linearly dependent). ----
