Definition df-wdom 8464
Description: A set is weakly dominated by a "larger" set iff the "larger" set can be mapped onto the "smaller" set or the smaller set is empty; equivalently if the smaller set can be placed into bijection with some partition of the larger set. When choice is assumed (as fodom 9344), this coincides with the 1-1 definition df-dom 7957; however, it is not known whether this is a choice-equivalent or a strictly weaker form. Some discussion of this question can be found at http://boolesrings.org/asafk/2014/on-the-partition-principle/. (Contributed by Stefan O'Rear, 11-Feb-2015.)
