Additional Lemmas about \max.

Given a function F, a predicate P, and a sequence xs, we show that F x max { F i | i xs, P i} for any x in xs.
Lemma leq_bigmax_cond_seq :
   {X : eqType} (F : X nat) (P : pred X) (xs : seq X) (x : X),
    x \in xs P x F x \max_(i <- xs | P i) F i.
Proof. by moveX F P xs x IN Px; rewrite (big_rem x) //= Px leq_maxl. Qed.

Similarly, we show that for a constant n to be bounded by max { F i | i xs, P i}, it is sufficient to find an element x xs such that P x and n F x.
Corollary leq_bigmax_sup :
   {X : eqType} (P : pred X) (F : X nat) (xs : seq X) (n : nat),
    ( x, x \in xs P x n F x)
    n \max_(x <- xs | P x) F x.
Proof.
  moveX P F xs n [x [IN [Px LE]]].
  apply: leq_trans; first by exact: LE.
  by apply leq_bigmax_cond_seq.
Qed.

Next, we show that the fact max { F i | i xs, P i} m for some m is equivalent to the fact that x xs, P x F x m.
Lemma bigmax_leq_seqP :
   {X : eqType} (F : X nat) (P : pred X) (xs : seq X) (m : nat),
    reflect ( x, x \in xs P x F x m)
            (\max_(x <- xs | P x) F x m).
Proof.

Given two functions F1 and F2, a predicate P, and sequence xs, we show that if F1 x F2 x for any x \in xs such that P x, then max of {F1 x | x xs, P x} is bounded by the max of {F2 x | x xs, P x}.
Lemma leq_big_max :
   {X : eqType} (F1 F2 : X nat) (P : pred X) (xs : seq X),
    ( x, x \in xs P x F1 x F2 x)
    \max_(x <- xs | P x) F1 x \max_(x <- xs | P x) F2 x.
Proof.
  moveX F1 F2 P xs ALL; apply /bigmax_leq_seqPx IN Px.
  specialize (ALL x); feed_n 2 ALL; try done.
  rewrite (big_rem x) //=; rewrite Px.
  by apply leq_trans with (F2 x); [ | rewrite leq_maxl].

We show that for a positive n, max of {0, …, n-1} is smaller than n.
Lemma bigmax_ord_ltn_identity :
   (n : nat),
    n > 0
    \max_(i < n) i < n.
Proof.
  intros [ | n] POS; first by rewrite ltn0 in POS.
  clear POS.
  elim: n ⇒ [|n IHn]; first by rewrite big_ord_recr /= big_ord0 maxn0.
  by rewrite big_ord_recr /= /maxn IHn.
Qed.

We state the next lemma in terms of ordinals. Given a natural number n, a predicate P, and an ordinal i0 {0, …, n-1} satisfying P, we show that max {i | P i} < n. Note that the element satisfying P is needed to prove that {i | P i} is not empty.
Lemma bigmax_ltn_ord :
   (n : nat) (P : pred nat) (i0 : 'I_n),
    P i0
    \max_(i < n | P i) i < n.
Proof.
  intros n P i0 Pi.
  destruct n as [|n]; first by destruct i0 as [i0 P0]; move: (P0) ⇒ P0'; rewrite ltn0 in P0'.
  rewrite big_mkcond.
  apply leq_ltn_trans with (n := \max_(i < n.+1) i).
  - apply/bigmax_leqPi _.
    destruct (P i); last by done.
    by apply leq_bigmax_cond.
  - by apply bigmax_ord_ltn_identity.
Qed.

Next, we show that, given a natural number n, a predicate P, and an ordinal i0 {0, …, n-1} satisfying P, max {i | P i} < n also satisfies P.
Lemma bigmax_pred :
   (n : nat) (P : pred nat) (i0 : 'I_n),
    P i0
    P (\max_(i < n | P i) i).
Proof.
  intros n P i0 Pi0.
  elim: n i0 Pi0 ⇒ [|n IHn] i0 Pi0.
  { by destruct i0 as [i0 P0]; move: (P0) ⇒ P1; rewrite ltn0 in P1. }
  { rewrite big_mkcond big_ord_recr /=.
    destruct (P n) eqn:Pn.
    { destruct n as [|n]; first by rewrite big_ord0 maxn0.
      unfold maxn at 1.
      destruct (\max_(i < n.+1) (match P (@nat_of_ord (S n) i) return nat with
                                 | true ⇒ @nat_of_ord (S n) i
                                 | falseO
                                 end) < n.+1) eqn:Pi; first by rewrite Pi.
      exfalso.
      apply negbT in Pi; move: Pi ⇒ /negP BUG; apply: BUG.
      apply leq_ltn_trans with (n := \max_(i < n.+1) i).
      { apply/bigmax_leqP; rewrite //= ⇒ i _.
        by destruct (P i); first apply leq_bigmax_cond.
      }
      { by apply bigmax_ord_ltn_identity. }
    }
    { rewrite maxn0 -big_mkcond /=.
      have LT: i0 < n; last by rewrite (IHn (Ordinal LT)).
      rewrite ltn_neqAle; apply/andP; split;
        last by rewrite -ltnS; apply ltn_ord.
      apply/negP ⇒ /eqP BUG.
      by rewrite -BUG Pi0 in Pn.

Furthermore, we observe that, if there is any element that satisfies the predicate, then there exists a witness for the computed maximum.
Lemma bigmax_witness {T : eqType} :
   {xs : seq T} {P} F,
    has P xs
     x, x \in xs P x (F x = \max_(x <- xs | P x) F x).
Proof.
  movexs P F.
  elim: xs ⇒ // a xs IH HAS.
  case: (boolP (P a)); last first.
  { move⇒ /negPf NOT.
    move: HAS; rewrite /has NOT //= -/(has P xs) ⇒ HAS.
    move: (IH HAS) ⇒ [x [IN [Px Fx]]].
     x; repeat split ⇒ //;
                          first by rewrite in_cons; apply /orP; right.
    by rewrite big_cons ifF. }
  { movePa.
    case: (boolP (has P xs)) ⇒ HAS'; last first.
    { a; repeat split ⇒ //; first by apply: mem_head.
      by rewrite big_cons ifT // big_hasC. }
    { move: (IH HAS') ⇒ [x [IN [Px MAX]]].
      case: (leqP (\max_(x <- xs | P x) F x) (F a)).
      { moveLEQ. a.
        repeat split ⇒ //; first by rewrite mem_head.
        rewrite big_cons ifT //= [maxn (_) (_)]/maxn ifF //.
        by lia. }
      { moveLT. x.
        repeat split ⇒ //; first by rewrite in_cons; apply /orP; right.
        by rewrite big_cons ifT //= [maxn (_) (_)]/maxn ifT. } } }
Qed.

Additionally, we observe that, if two predicates yield different maxima, then there must exist a witness that satisfies only one of the predicates.
Lemma bigmax_witness_diff {T : eqType} :
   {xs : seq T} {P1 P2 F},
    \max_(x <- xs | P1 x) F x < \max_(x <- xs | P2 x) F x
     x, x \in xs ~~ P1 x P2 x.
Proof.
  movexs P1 P2 F LT.
  case: (boolP (has P1 xs)) ⇒ HP1;
                                case: (boolP (has P2 xs)) ⇒ HP2.
  { move: (bigmax_witness F HP2) ⇒ [x2 [IN2 [Px2 MAX2]]].
     x2; repeat split ⇒ //.
    apply: contraT ⇒ /negPn Px1; exfalso.
    have BOUNDED: F x2 \max_(x <- xs | P1 x) F x by apply: leq_bigmax_cond_seq.
    by lia. }
  { by exfalso; move: LT; rewrite (big_hasC _ _ _ HP2). }
  { move: (bigmax_witness F HP2) ⇒ [x2 [IN2 [Px2 MAX2]]].
     x2; repeat split ⇒ //.
    move: HP1 ⇒ /hasPn HP1.
    by move: (HP1 x2 IN2). }
  { by exfalso; move: LT; rewrite !big_hasC. }
Qed.

Conversely, we observe that if one predicates implies another, then the corresponding maxima are related.
Corollary bigmax_subset {T : eqType} :
   {xs : seq T} {P1 P2 : pred T} {F},
    ( x, x \in xs P1 x P2 x)
    \max_(x <- xs | P1 x) F x \max_(x <- xs | P2 x) F x.
Proof.
  movexs P1 P2 F IMPL.
  apply: contraT; rewrite -ltnNgeLT.
  exfalso.
  move: (bigmax_witness_diff LT) ⇒ [x [IN [/negP Px2 Px1]]].
  by apply Px2, IMPL.
