1. Define a relation on Z by aRb provided a -b a. Prove that this relation is an equivalence relation. b. Describe the equivalence classes. 2. Define a relation on Z by akb provided ab is even. Use counterexamples to show that the reflexive and transitive properties are not satisfied 3. Explain why the relation R on the set S-23,4 defined by R - 11.1),(22),3,3),4.4),2,3),(32),(2.4),(4,2)) is not an equivalence relation.
Define a relation < on Z by m <n iff |m| < |n| or (\m| = |n| 1 m <n) (a) Prove that < is a partial order on Z. (b) A partial order R on a set S is called a total order (or linear order) iff (Vx, Y ES)(x + y + ((x, y) E R V (y,x) E R)) Prove that is a total order on Z. (c) List the following elements in <-increasing order. –5, 2,...
Define an equivalence relation on R by (x,y,z) ∼ (u,v,w) whenever x +y +z = u +v +w . Describe the equivalence classes.
6. Fix n E N and recall the definition of the equivalence relation on Z given by a = b mod n. (This means that a – b = kn, for some k € Z.) Let [a] denote the equivalence class containing a. (a) Show that defining [a] + [b] := (a + b] makes sense, i.e. does not depend on the choice of representatives for the classes. (b) Show that defining [a] × [b] := [a x b] makes...
