Theory of Sets, III, 218

Bourbaki marks this one as harder than the rest, it is set in small type as supplementary.

Let A be a set with at least three elements, let P\mathfrak{P} be the set of all partitions of A, ordered by the relation "ϖ\varpi is finer than ϖ′\varpi'" between ϖ\varpi and ϖ′\varpi' (no. 1, Example 4). Show that P\mathfrak{P} is a complete lattice (Exercise 11), is not distributive (Exercise 17), but is relatively complemented. (To prove the last assertion, well-order the sets belonging to a partition.) \*
