等價關係(equivalence relation)即设Rdisplaystyle R是某個集合Adisplaystyle A
上的一个二元关系。若Rdisplaystyle R
满足以下條件:
- 自反性:∀x∈A, xRxdisplaystyle forall xin A,~~xRx
- 对称性:∀x,y∈A, xRy ⟹ yRxdisplaystyle forall x,yin A,~~xRy~~implies ~~yRx
- 传递性:∀x,y,z∈A, (xRy ∧ yRz) ⟹ xRzdisplaystyle forall x,y,zin A,~~~(xRy~~wedge ~~yRz)~~implies ~~xRz
则称Rdisplaystyle R是一個定义在Adisplaystyle A
上的等价关系。習慣上會把等價關係的符號由Rdisplaystyle R
改寫為∼displaystyle sim
。
例如,设A=1,2,…,8displaystyle A=1,2,ldots ,8,定义Adisplaystyle A
上的关系Rdisplaystyle R
如下:
- xRy⟺∀x,y∈A, x≡y(mod3)displaystyle xRyiff forall x,yin A,~xequiv ypmod 3
其中x≡y(mod3)displaystyle xequiv ypmod 3叫做xdisplaystyle x
与ydisplaystyle y
模3 同餘,即xdisplaystyle x
除以3的餘数与ydisplaystyle y
除以3的餘数相等。例子有1R4, 2R5, 3R6。不难验证Rdisplaystyle R
为Adisplaystyle A
上的等价关系。
并非所有的二元關係都是等價關係。一個簡單的反例是比較兩個數中哪個較大:
- 沒有自反性:任何一個數不能比自身為較大(n≯ndisplaystyle nngtr n
)
- 沒有對稱性:如果m>ndisplaystyle m>n
,就肯定不能有n>mdisplaystyle n>m
