(* Sing_alg: adds the property that makes the Permission Algebra into a single-unit Separation Algebra.  (this is the "traditional" kind of Separation Algebra).   *)
Class Sing_alg A {J: Join A}{SA: Sep_alg A} :=

Arguments Sing_alg _ [J] [SA].
Arguments mkSing [A] [J] [SA] _ _.
(* Positive Permission Algebra: there are no units, every element is nonempty *)
Class Pos_alg  {A} {J: Join A} :=

Arguments Pos_alg _ [J].
(* Has the "cross-split" property described in Dockins et al, "A fresh look at separation algebras and share accounting", 2009 *)
Class Cross_alg (t: Type)  `{J: Join t} :=

(* Has the "triple join" property  *)
Class Trip_alg {A} {J: Join A} :=

{abc | join ab c abc}.
Arguments Trip_alg _ [J].
(* We do NOT yet introduce "emp" as a notation or synonym for "identity". This is because "emp" is a predicate of Separation Logic, but this file contains only Separation Algebras.  Some separation logics have predicates that are not just "t -> Prop", and therefore it is premature in this file to define "emp". *)
