$a$ is not an associate of $b$ in correct math expression

95 Views Asked by At

Background:

Definition: An element $a\in R$ is an associate of $b\in R$ provided $a=bu$ for some unit $u.$

Questions:

I want to ask in math notation, to say that $a$ is not an associate of $b$ means that for every unit $u$, $a\neq bu$ Is that the correct negation?

Thank you in advance
