  2. Antisymmetric relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisymmetric_relation

    For example, that every equivalence relation is symmetric, but not necessarily antisymmetric, is indicated by in the "Symmetric" column and in the "Antisymmetric" column, respectively. All definitions tacitly require the homogeneous relation R {\displaystyle R} be transitive : for all a , b , c , {\displaystyle a,b,c,} if a R b {\displaystyle ...

  3. Asymmetric relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric_relation

    For example, the restriction of < from the reals to the integers is still asymmetric, and the converse or dual > of < is also asymmetric. An asymmetric relation need not have the connex property . For example, the strict subset relation ⊊ {\displaystyle \,\subsetneq \,} is asymmetric, and neither of the sets { 1 , 2 } {\displaystyle \{1,2 ...

  4. Relation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    For example, "is a blood relative of" is a symmetric relation, because x is a blood relative of y if and only if y is a blood relative of x. Antisymmetric for all x, y ∈ X, if xRy and yRx then x = y. For example, ≥ is an antisymmetric relation; so is >, but vacuously (the condition in the definition is always false). [11] Asymmetric

  6. Skew-symmetric matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew-symmetric_matrix

    Throughout, we assume that all matrix entries belong to a field whose characteristic is not equal to 2. That is, we assume that 1 + 1 ≠ 0, where 1 denotes the multiplicative identity and 0 the additive identity of the given field.

  7. Asymmetric graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric_graph

    The smallest asymmetric regular graphs have ten vertices; there exist 10-vertex asymmetric graphs that are 4-regular and 5-regular. [2] [3] One of the five smallest asymmetric cubic graphs [4] is the twelve-vertex Frucht graph discovered in 1939. [5] According to a strengthened version of Frucht's theorem, there are infinitely many asymmetric ...

  8. Asymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetry

    Asymmetry is the absence of, or a violation of, symmetry (the property of an object being invariant to a transformation, such as reflection). [1] Symmetry is an important property of both physical and abstract systems and it may be displayed in precise terms or in more aesthetic terms. [2]

  9. Skew-symmetric graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew-symmetric_graph

    An instance of the 2-satisfiability problem, that is, a Boolean expression in conjunctive normal form with two variables or negations of variables per clause, may be transformed into an implication graph by replacing each clause by the two implications and (). This graph has a vertex for each variable or negated variable, and a directed edge ...
