Relations and quantifiers

46 Views Asked by At

When talking about relations, we know that the relation is anti-symmetric if "for all x: for all y: R(x,y) AND R(y,x) IMPLIES (x=y)". But can i rewrite this as "for all x: for all y: R(x,y) EXCLUSIVE OR R(y,x)"? Because don't both of them mean "no 2 way arrows"?
