Let be a 01-bounded semilattice, that is, a semilattice with an absorbing element. Phoa’s principle states that every endofunction is monotonic and the precomposition function by the embedding of the booleans into is an embedding.
If is a distributive lattice, then Phoa’s principle is equivalent to the linear interpolation condition that for all endofunctions and elements :
In Pos the category of posets and monotonic functions, Phoa’s principle holds for the boolean domain . In synthetic Stone duality, Phoa’s principle holds for the type of open propositions . In synthetic domain theory, Phoa’s principle holds for a dominance .
