    Binary Relations Any set of ordered pairs defines a binary relation. We express a particular ordered pair, (x, y) R, where R is a binary relation, as xRy. Properties Properties of a binary relation R on a set X: a. reflexive: if for every x X, xRx holds, i.e. (x, x) R. b. symmetric: if for every x and y in X, whenever xRy holds, then yRx holds. c. transitive: if for every x, y, and z in X, whenever xRy holds and yRz holds, then xRz holds. Graphical Representation Suppose that X = {A, B, C, D} and that R = {(A, B), (B, D), (C, C), (D, B)}. We can represent the binary relation R as a set, as a graph or as a Boolean matrix. Graphically, we have Boolean Matrix Representation As a Boolean matrix we have A B C D A 0 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 C 0 0 1 0 D 0 1 0 0 What would a Boolean matrix look like if it represented a reflexive binary relation, a symmetric binary relation, a transitive binary relation, any combination of the above?

Then a relation written as R o S is called a composite relation of R and S where R o S = { (x, z) | x X z Z ( y) (y Y (x, y) R (y, z) S) } We can also write the composition as R o S = { (x, z) | x X z Z ( y) (y Y xRy ySz) } Note: Relational composition can be realized as matrix multiplication.

  • Discrete Mathematics
    Discrete Mathematics Chapter 7 Relations 7.1 Relations and their properties. ※The most direct way to express a relationship between elements of two sets is to use ordered pairs. For this reason, sets of ordered pairs are called binary relations. Example 1. A : the set of students in your school. B : the set of courses. R = { (a, b) : a∈A, b∈B, a is enrolled in course b } 7.1.1 Def 1. Let A and B be sets. A binary relation from A to B is a subset R of A×B. ( Note A×B = { (a,b) : a∈A and b∈B } ) Def 1’. We use the notation aRb to denote that (a, b)∈R, and aRb to denote that (a,b)∉R. Moreover, a is said to be related to b by R if aRb. 7.1.2 Example 3. Let A={0, 1, 2} and B={a, b}, then {(0,a),(0,b),(1,a),(2,b)} is a relation R from A to B. This means, for instance, that 0Ra, but that 1Rb A B R ⊆ A×B = { (0,a) , (0,b) , (1,a) (1,b) , (2,a) , (2,b)} 0 a ∈R ∈R 1 b 2 R 7.1.3 Example (上例) : A : 男生, B : 女生, R : 夫妻關系 A : 城市, B : 州, 省 R : 屬於 (Example 2) Note. Relations vs. Functions A relation can be used to express a 1-to-many relationship between the elements of the sets A and B. ( function 不可一對多,只可多對一 ) Def 2. A relation on the set A is a subset of A × A ( i.e., a relation from A to A ).

Definition: A binary relation is a set of points, or ordered pairs. The ordered pairs are of the form (a,b) where a is a member of a set A (a ∈ A) and b is a member of a set B (b ∈ B). Any subset R ⊆ A x B is a binary relation. (Remember that A x B is the set of ordered pairs {(a,b) | a∈A ∧ b ∈ B}) II. Properties: Consider the binary relation R ⊆ A x A. A. Reflexive:R is reflexive if ∀ a ∈ A, (a,a) ∈ R B. Irreflexive: R is irreflexive if ∀ a ∈ A, (a,a) ∉ R. Is ¬ (R is reflexive) ⇔ (R is irreflexive)? C. Non-reflexive: ¬ (R is reflexive) D. Symmetric: R is symmetric if ∀ a, b ∈ A, [ ((a,b) ∈ R) ⇔ ((b,a) ∈ R) ] E. Antisymmetric: R is antisymmetric if ∀ a, b ∈ A, [(a,b) ∈ R ∧ (b,a) ∈ R] ⇒ (b = a) F. Asymmetric: R is asymmetric if ∀ a, b ∈ A, [(a,b) ∈ R] ⇒ [(b,a) ∉ R] Asymmetric = irreflexive AND antisymmetric G. Transitive: R is transitive if ∀ a, b ∈ A, [(a,b) ∈ R ∧ (b,c) ∈ R] ⇒ (a,c) ∈ R Also: R2 ⊆ R if and only if R is transitive.

  • Chapter 5 Partial Orders, Lattices, Well Founded Orderings
    Chapter 5 Partial Orders, Lattices, Well Founded Orderings, Equivalence Relations, Distributive Lattices, Boolean Algebras, Heyting Algebras 5.1 Partial Orders There are two main kinds of relations that play a very important role in mathematics and computer science: 1. Partial orders 2. Equivalence relations. In this section and the next few ones, we define partial orders and investigate some of their properties. 459 460 CHAPTER 5. PARTIAL ORDERS, EQUIVALENCE RELATIONS, LATTICES As we will see, the ability to use induction is intimately related to a very special property of partial orders known as well-foundedness. Intuitively, the notion of order among elements of a set, X, captures the fact some elements are bigger than oth- ers, perhaps more important, or perhaps that they carry more information. For example, we are all familiar with the natural ordering, , of the integers ≤ , 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 , ··· − ≤− ≤− ≤ ≤ ≤ ≤ ≤··· the ordering of the rationals (where p1 p2 iff q1 q2 p2q1 p1q2 ≤ − 0, i.e., p2q1 p1q2 0ifq1q2 > 0 else q1q2 ≥ − ≥ p2q1 p1q2 0ifq1q2 < 0), and the ordering of the real numbers.− ≤ In all of the above orderings, note that for any two number a and b, either a b or b a. ≤ ≤ We say that such orderings are total orderings. 5.1. PARTIAL ORDERS 461 A natural example of an ordering which is not total is provided by the subset ordering. Given a set, X, we can order the subsets of X by the subset relation: A B, where A, B are any subsets of X. ⊆ For example, if X = a, b, c , we have a a, b .

  • Relations and Functions
    2 Relations and Functions 2.1 INTRODUCTION The word relation implies an association of two objects, two persons, etc., according to some property possessed by them, e.g. (i) A is the son of B. The relation R here is “is the son of ”. (ii) Delhi is the capital of INDIA. The relation R here is “is the capital of ”. In Mathematics we can study relationship between a real number and a number which is smaller than it, between a program and a variable it uses. Relationship between elements of sets is represented using a structure called relation. 2.2 RELATION OR BINARY RELATION Let A and B be two non-empty sets. A binary relation or simply a relation from A to B is a sub- set of A × B. Given x ∈A and y ∈ B, we write x R y if (x, y) ∈ R and x R y if (x, y) ∉ R. If R is relation from A to A, then R is said to be relation on A. A binary relation on a set A is a subset of A × A. This definition needs some explanation, since the connection between it and the informal idea of a relation might not be obvious. Note: The word ‘binary’ refers to the fact that the relation is between two elements of A. As this is the only kind of relation we will be studying, we will omit the word ‘binary’ in what follows. The easiest way to do this is by means of an example. Let A = {1, 3, 5} be a set.
