projection

    In domain theory, a function, f, which is (a)
   idempotent, i.e.  f(f(x))=f(x) and (b) whose result is no
   more defined than its argument.  E.g. F(x)=bottom or F(x)=x.

   In reduction systems, a function which returns some
   component of its argument.  E.g. head, tail, \ (x,y) . x.
   In a graph reduction system the function can just return a
   pointer to part of its argument and does not need to build any
   new graph.
