1. <mathematics> One instance of some mathematical object contained with
in another instance, e.g. a group which is a subgroup.
2. <theory> (domain theory) A complete partial order F in [X -> Y] is an
embedding if
(1) For all x1, x2 in X, x1 <= x2 <=> F x1 <= F x2 and
(2) For all y in Y, x | F x <= y is directed.
("<=" is written in LaTeX as \sqsubseteq).
