| 41. | Because a preorder is a binary relation, the symbol d " can be used as the notational device for the relation.
|
| 42. | A derived binary relation between two sets is the subset relation, also called "'set inclusion " '.
|
| 43. | Unlike most structures in order theory, a cyclic order is not modeled as a binary relation, such as " ".
|
| 44. | They belong to the class of binary relations but they have three additional properties : reflexivity, anti-symmetry and transitivity.
|
| 45. | If is a critical pair, then the binary relation obtained from by adding the single relationship is also a partial order.
|
| 46. | Recall that a preorder on " X " is a binary relation on " X " which is transitive.
|
| 47. | Binary relations are used in many branches of mathematics to model concepts like " function is defined as a special kind of binary relation.
|
| 48. | Binary relations are used in many branches of mathematics to model concepts like " function is defined as a special kind of binary relation.
|
| 49. | In some fields, it is common to use infix notation for binary relations and functions, instead of the prefix notation defined above.
|
| 50. | Formally, ZFC is a signature has equality and a single primitive binary relation, set membership, which is usually denoted ".
