Comparing two binary relations using Cartesian products












0














Let $f$ be a binary relation between sets $A_0$ and $B_0$ and $g$ be a binary relation between sets $A_1$ and $B_1$.



It can be proved that $[fcap(A_1times B_1)=g]wedge [gcap(A_0times B_0)=f]$ implies $f=g$.



Really, it follows $gcap(A_0times B_0)cap(A_1times B_1)=g$. Thus $gsubseteq A_0times B_0$. Consequantly $g=f$.



Do the following hold?




  1. $[fcap(A_1times B_1)supseteq g]wedge [gcap(A_0times B_0)]supseteq f$ implies $f=g$.


  2. $[fcap(A_1times B_1)subseteq g]wedge [gcap(A_0times B_0)]subseteq f$ implies $f=g$.

  • @CliveNewstead I get that, but if $f,g$ are binary relations, isn't $fland g$ the same as $fcap g$ where $f$ and $g$ are being viewed as subsets of the cartesian product?

    @Yanko: Ah, you're just parsing it wrong. Read it as $$[f cap (A_1 times B_1) = g] wedge [g cap (A_0 times B_0) = f]$$ and so on.

It is true in general that if $X subseteq Y cap Z$, then $X subseteq Y$ and $X subseteq Z$. The hypothesis of statement (1) implies that $f subseteq g$ and $g subseteq f$, and so $f = g$, as required. So statement (1) is true.



The hypothesis of statement (2) holds for all $f,g$, provided that $A_0 cap A_1 = varnothing$ or $B_0 cap B_1 = varnothing$, so it doesn't follow in general that $f=g$. So statement (2) is false in general.



In fact, more generally, we have $(A_0 times B_0) cap (A_1 times B_1) = (A_0 cap A_1) times (B_0 cap B_1)$, and so the hypothesis of (2) holds whenever the relations $f$ and $g$ agree on $(A_0 cap A_1) times (B_0 cap B_1)$; but then $f$ and $g$ can say what they like about the elements not in these intersections, so they need not be equal.
