What is a set whose elements consist of all relations from A to B? and a couple more questions

66 Views Asked by At

I have an exam prep sheet on questions to "ponder" about. I've read the book for the class, and I can't seem to find the answers to these.

Can anybody give me a hand with these?

  1. What is a set whose elements consist of all relations from A to B?

  2. If R is an equivalence relation on A, then what is the equivalence class [a] of an element a.

  3. If a relation R is an equivalence relation on A, then there is a particular partition on A associated with R, what is the partition and how do you find it?

  4. If P is a partition of a set A, then what is the equivalence relation Rp corresponding to P? What is the rule for that equivalence relation?

What I think are the answers:

  1. No idea

  2. the equivalence class represents all related subsets of elements from R?

  3. there exists a collection of non empty subsets that which cover all of A?

  4. I have no idea.
