Conjecture Let $latex a$ and $latex b$ are filters on a set $latex U$. Then $latex a\cap b = \{U\} \Rightarrow \\ \exists A,B\in\mathcal{P}U: (\forall X\in a: A\subseteq X \wedge \forall Y\in b: B\subseteq Y \wedge A \cup B = U).$ [corrected]…

Let $latex {U}&fg=000000$ is a set. A filter $latex {\mathcal{F}}&fg=000000$ (on $latex {U}&fg=000000$) is a non-empty set of subsets of…
