corollary well_order_on: "\<exists>r::('a*'a)set. well_order_on A r"
proof -
  obtain r::"('a*'a)set" where wo: "Well_order r" and univ: "Field r = UNIV"
    using well_ordering[where 'a = "'a"] by blast
  let ?r = "{(x,y). x:A & y:A & (x,y):r}"
  have 1: "Field ?r = A" using wo univ

  have "Refl r" "trans r" "antisym r" "Total r" "wf(r-Id)"
    using `Well_order r` by(simp_all add:order_on_defs)
  have "Refl ?r" using `Refl r` by(auto simp:refl_on_def 1 univ)
  moreover have "trans ?r" using `trans r`

  moreover have "Total ?r" using `Total r` by(simp add:total_on_def 1 univ)
  moreover have "wf(?r - Id)" by(rule wf_subset[OF `wf(r-Id)`]) blast
