(* A sample tarski theorem proof, for f: A -> A. 
   Syntax is for coq v8. *)

Parameter A : Set.
Variable R : A -> A -> Prop.
Variable Eq : A -> A -> Prop.

Axiom Assym : forall x y : A, R x y -> R y x -> Eq x y.
Axiom Trans : forall x y z : A, R x y -> R y z -> R x z.

Variable f : A -> A.
Axiom Incr : forall x y : A, R x y -> R (f x) (f y).

Variable M : A.
Hypothesis Up : forall x : A, R x (f x) -> R x M.
Hypothesis Least : forall x : A, (forall y : A, R y (f y) -> R y x) -> R M x.

Theorem Tarski_lemma : Eq M (f M).
