子集关系
证明A是B的子集
证明A中任意的元素都在B中即可
句式
For each element a in set A, we have a belongs to B. So A is the subset of B.
(以下我都尽量用符号吧,毕竟符号更直观点)
两个集合相等
证明A=B
证明A,B互为子集即可
句式
For each element a in set A,
……(题目条件)
we have a∈B, i.e A ⊆ B.
For each element a in set B,
……(题目条件)
we have a∈A, i.e B ⊆ A.
To sum up, A=B holds obviously.
例子
A,B,C是非空有限集,证明A-(B∪C)=(A-B)∩(A-C)
Proof:
∀ x∈A-(B∪C), we have x∈A and x∉B∪C,which indicates x∉B and x∉C. So x∈A-B and x∈A-C hold obviously, i.e x∈(A-B)∩(A-C)holds. Now we can say A-(B∪C)⊆(A-B)∩(A-C)
∀ x∈(A-B)∩(A-C), we have x∈(A-B)and x∈(A-C),which indicates x∈A, x∉B and x∉C, i.e x∈A-(B∪C)holds. Now we can say (A-B)∩(A-C)⊆A-(B∪C).
To sum up, A-(B∪C)=(A-B)∩(A-C).

令R为从A到B的二元关系,S为从B到C的二元关系,若D是A的一个子集,证明(S○R)(D) = S(R(D))
Suppose that z∈C exists in (S○R)(D), there is a element x∈D that makes x(S○R)z holds.
By the definition of composite, there must be y∈D, so we have xRy and ySz hold, which implies y∈R(x) and z∈S(y) so that z∈S(R(x)).
Since x∈D and z∈(S○R)(D) hold, we have z∈S(R(D)), i.e (S○R)(D) ⊆ S(R(D)) holds.
∀ z∈S(R(D)) there must be a y∈B that makes z∈S(y) hold. There must exists x∈D making xRy holds, i.e y∈R(x) and z∈S(y) hold obviously, which makes z∈(S○R)(x) hold.
Since x∈D hold, now we can say that z∈(S○R)(D), i.e S(R(D)) ⊆ (S○R)(D) holds.
To sum up, (S○R)(D) = S(R(D)).

设A,B是集合,定义 (环积)运算,如A⊗B = (A⊕B)
证明A⊗B=(A∪B )∩(A∪B)
(上划线我实在找不到表示方法,就用斜杠表示吧,遇到双重的,我内层就以补集符号∁代替了,意为取反;⊕是异或运算)
Proof:
A⊗B=(A⊕B) 题目条件
=(∁A∩B ∪ A∩∁B) 根据⊕定义
=(∁A∩B) ∩ (A∩∁B) 德·摩根定律
=(∁A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ ∁B) 德·摩根定律
=(A∪B)∩(A∪B) 化简得
划分(partition)
非空集合A的非空子集(在划分中称为block或者cell)组成的集合,就是A的划分。
比如下图a11~a93为A中的全部元素,其子集如有颜色部分所示
这些子集共同组成了一个A的划分
其满足:
1、A中每个元素属于划分中的某个集合
2、如果A₁、A₂是A中的不同元素,那么A₁∩A₂=Ø
补充:A的幂集是A所有子集构成的集合,所以划分(没有空集元素)是幂集的子集
句式
Supposing ∀ a∈A,∃b∈B,
……(题目条件)
a∈b holds.
Suppose that A₁、A₂∈B and A₁≠A₂
……(题目条件)
A₁∩A₂ = Ø holds.
To sum up, B is the partition of A.
例子
设π={Ai:i∈I}(I在离散数学中代表整数集)是集合A上的的一个划分,证明对于任意的集合B,所有Ai∩B≠Ø的Ai∩B组成的集合是A∩B的划分。
Proof:
We define S as a set that made of {Ai∩B, Ai∩B≠Ø and i∈I}
Supposing ∀ a∈A∩B, there exists a set b∈S that contains the element a since b = {Ai∩B} and s=A∩B={Ai∩B,i∈I}, i.e a∈b holds.
Suppose that s₁、s₂∈B, which are made of different Ai∩B. By the definition of partition, Ai≠Aj holds, if i≠j, i.e s₁∩s₂=Ø.
To sum up, S that is made of {Ai∩B, Ai∩B≠Ø and i∈I} is the partition of A∩B.
关系
关系R的自反性(reflexive)反自反(irreflexive)
三者关系如下
对A中任意元素a,都有(a,a)∈R,那么R就具备自反性
如果都不在那就反自反,存在(a,a)∉R 就是非自反,反自反是特殊的非自反
句式
For each element a∈A, ……(这里是题目给的条件,比如A×A什么的),
1 we have (a,a) ∈ R, i.e R is reflexive.
2 we have (a,a) ∉ R, i.e R is irreflexive
关系R的对称性(symmetric)反对称(antisymmetric)
三者关系如下
任意的a,b∈A,都有(a,b)∈R 并且(b.a)∈R ,那么R就具备对称性
如果都有(a,b)∈R并且(b,a)∉R,那么R就具备反对称
存在(a,b)∈R并且(b,a)∉R 就是斜对称,反对称是特殊的斜对称
句式
For each a,b are the elements in A, ……(题目条件)
1 we have (a,b) ∈R and (b,a) ∈R,i.e R is symmetric
2 we have (a,b) ∈R, (b,a) ∈R and a=b, i.e R is antisymmetric
例子
证明若集合A上的一个二元关系R是对称的,则对于任意的n≥1,Rⁿ也是对称的
Proof:(数学归纳法,其应用往往在于前后条件成立有因果关系时,即k成立能推导k+1成立,此时应用数学归纳法)
- By the condition, when n = 1, R is symmetric.
- When n > 1, supposing Rk is symmetric, ∀(a,b)∈Rk, there exists c∈A for (a,c)∈Rk and (c,b)∈R holding. Moreover, Rk and R is symmetric, which indicate (c,a)∈Rk and (b,c)∈R hold obviously. Since Rk+1 = RkR holds, (b,a) ∈Rk+1 holds obviously, which suggests Rk+1 is Symmetric.
To sum up, Rn is symmetric for ∀ n ≥ 1.
关系R的传递性(transitive)
(a,b)∈R ,(b,c)∈R
如果有(a,c)∈R,那么R就具有传递性
句式
For each (a,b) ∈R and (b,c) ∈R, ……(题目条件)
we have (a,c) ∈ R, i.e R is transitive
例子
设R∈A×A,对于任意的x,y,z∈A,如果(x,y)∈R且(y,z)∈R那么(z,x)∈R,则称R为A上的循环关系,证明若R是自反和循环的,则R具有对称性和传递性。
Proof:
Supposing a,b∈A and (a,b)∈R, since R is reflexive, (a,a)∈R holds. By the condition, (a,a)∈R and (a,b)∈R so (b,a)∈R holds obviously, i.e R is symmetric.
Basing on the condition, ∀a,b,c∈R, if (a,b)∈R and (b,c)∈R, (c,a)∈R holds. Since R is Symmetric, (a,c)∈R holds, i.e R is transitive.
关系R的相容性(compatible)
R具有自反性,对称性,不必具备传递性(所以等价关系是特殊的相容关系)
依次证明自反性、对称性即可
句式
……
R is reflexive.
……
R is symmetric.
To sum up, R is compatible relation.
例子
集合A的覆盖为{A₁,A₂,A₃,……An},证明R=A₁×A₁∪A₂×A₂……An ×An是相容关系
Proof:
For ∀ a∈A, by the definition that {A₁,A₂,A₃,……An} is the covering of A, we konw taht a∈A₁∪A₂∪A₃∪……An, which indicates (a,a)∈A₁×A₁∪A₂×A₂∪A₃×A₃∪……An×An
Since R=A₁×A₁∪A₂×A₂∪A₃×A₃∪……An×An, i.e R is reflexive.
For ∀ a,b∈A, by the condition, we know that there exists Ai for a,b∈Ai holding. Furthermore, (a,b)∈Ai×Ai and (b,a)∈Ai×Ai hold obviously, which implies that (a,b)∈A₁×A₁∪A₂×A₂∪A₃×A₃∪……An×An and (b,a)∈A₁×A₁∪A₂×A₂∪A₃×A₃∪……An×An, i.e R is symmetric.
To sum up, R is compatible.
关系R的等价性(equivalent)
先证明R的自反性,再证对称性,最后证传递性
总结一下就是全等关系
句式
……
R is reflexive.
……
R is symmetric.
……
R is transitive.
To sum up, R is equivalence relation.
偏序关系(partial order)
关系R满足自反性、反对称、传递性,其就是偏序关系
句式
……
R is reflexive.
……
R is antisymmetric.
……
R is transitive.
To sum up, R is partial order.

(1)a∨b=b,当且仅当a≤b
(2)a∧b=a,当且仅当a≤b
Proof:
- =>
By the definition of LUB, we have a≤a∨b. Basing on the condition, it is clear that a∨b = b, i.e a≤b holds obviously.
<=
Since a≤b and b≤b, we have b is one of the upper bound of a and b. By the definition of LUB, we have a∨b≤b. However, a∨b is one of the upper bound of a and b, which implies b≤a∨b., i.e a∨b=b holds obviously. - =>
By the definition of GLB, we have a∧b≤b. Basing on the condition, it is clear that a∧b = a, i.e a≤b holds obviously.
<=
Since a≤a and a≤b, we have a is one of the lower bound of a and b. By the definition of GLB, we have a≤a∧b. However, a∧b is one of the lower bound of a and b, which suggests a∧b≤a., i.e a∧b=a holds obviously.
——————————————
证明(p(x),⊆)是格,其中p(x)是集合x的幂集
Proof:
∀ a∈p(x),it is clear that a⊆a holds obviously, i.e ⊆ is reflexive.
Supposing a,b∈p(x)a⊆b and b⊆a, by the definition of ⊆, a=b holds, i.e ⊆ is antisymmetric.
Suppose that a,b,c⊆p(x),a⊆b and b⊆c. By the definition of ⊆, it is clear that a⊆c, i.e is transitive.
To sum up, ⊆ is partial order reletion, p(x)is a poset.
∀ a,b∈p(x), we have a∩b⊆a,and a∩b⊆b, which indicates that a∩b is a lower bound of a and b. Supposing c∈p(x)and c⊆a, c⊆b, we obtain c⊆a∩b, i.e a∩b is the greatest lower bound of a and b.
∀ a,b∈p(x), we have a⊆a∪b and b⊆a∪b, which implies that a∪b is a upper bound of a and b. Supposing c∈p(x)and a⊆c, b⊆c, we obtain a∪b⊆c, i.e a∪b is the least upper bound of a and b.
To sum up, p(x)is a lattice.

令*是有限集合A上的一个二元运算,若对于∀a,b,c∈A,满足
(1)a = a * a
(2)a * b = b * a
(3)a * (b * c)=(a * b) * c
在A上定义一个关系≤,形如 a ≤ b ⇔ a = a * b,证明
1、(A,≤)是一个偏序集。
2、∀ a,b ∈ A, a ∧ b = a * b
Proof:
-
∀a∈A, by the condition, we have a * a = a ⇔ a ≤ a, which implies (a,a) ∈ R, i.e R is reflexive.
Supposing a,b∈A, a ≤ b and b ≤ a, by the condition, we obtain a = a * b and b = b * a.
Since * is commutative, a = a * b = b * a = b holds obviously, i.e R is antisymmetric.
Suppose that a,b,c ∈ A and a ≤ b, b ≤ c, which indicate a = a * b and b = b * c, i.e a = a * (b * c) hold obviously. Since * is associative, we have a = (a * b) * c = a * c. Basing on the definition, we have a ≤ c holds, i.e R is transitive.
To sum up, ≤ is partial order and (A,≤) is a poset. -
Supposing a * b=a * b * b=(a * b) * b, by the condition we have a * b ≤ b. Similarly a * b=a * a * b=(a * b) * a, Basing on the condition we have a * b≤a. So a * b is a lower bound of a and b. Suppose that c ∈ A, c≤a and c≤b hold, which indicate that c=c * a and c=c * b hold clearly. Furthermore, c=(c * a) * b=c * (a * b) hold obviously. By the condition, c≤a * b hold, i.e a * b is the greatest lower bound of a and b.
To sum up, ∀ a,b ∈ A, a ∧ b = a * b holds.

令(S, ○ )和(T, ○’ )为两个群,证明(S×T,○’‘)也是一个群,其中 ○‘’运算定义为:
(s₁,t₁)○’'(s₂,t₂)=(s₁○s₂ ,t₁○’t₂ )
Proof
By the condition, it is clear that S×T is a nonempty set and ○’’ is a binary operation.
∀ s₁,s₂ ,s₃ ∈ S and t₁,t₂ ,t₃ ∈ T, we have
(s₁,t₁) ○’’ (s₂,t₂)○’‘(s₃,t₃) = (s₁○s₂ ,t₁○’t₂ )○’’ (s₃,t₃) = (s₁○s₂○s₃,t₁○’t₂○’t₃) and
(s₁,t₁) ○’‘[ (s₂,t₂)○’‘(s₃,t₃)] = (s₁,t₁) ○’‘(s₂○s₃,t₂ ○’t₃) = (s₁○s₂○s₃,t₁○’t₂○’t₃) hold.
To sum up, ○’’ is associative, which implies(S×T,○’') is a semigroup.
What is more, Since (S, ○ )and(T, ○’ )are groups, there must be two identity e₁∈S and e₂∈T, for each element s∈S and t∈T, making s ○ e₁ = e₁ ○ s = s and t ○’ e₂ = e₂ ○’ t = t hold.
By the condition, (s,t) ○’’ (e₁,e₂ ) = (s ○ e₁, t ○’ e₂ ) = (e₁ ○ s, e₂ ○’ t) = (s,t) holds obviously, i.e (e₁,e₂) is the identity of (S×T,○’‘), which suggests (S×T,○’') is a monoid.
Moreover, Since (S, ○ )and(T, ○’ )are groups, they should have inverses x,y for each element s∈S or t∈T making s○x = x○s = e₁ and y○’t = t○’y = e₂ hold.
Basing on the condition, (s,t) ○’’ (x,y) = (s ○ x,t ○’ y) = (x ○ s,y ○’ t) = (e₁,e₂) hold obviously, i.e for each (s,t) in S×T, (x,y) is inverse of (s,t).
To sum up, (S×T,○’') is a group.

在整数集合Z上定义0运算,如∀ x,y∈Z,x0y=x+y-2,证明(Z,0)是交换群
Proof:
It is clear that Z is a nonempty set.
By the condition 0 is a everywhere defined function and only one element of A is assigned to each ordered pair.
Supposing a,b,c∈Z, and (a0b)0c = (a+b-2)0c = (a+b-2)+c-2=a+b+c-4 holds.
Moreover a0(b0c) = a0(b+c-2) = a+(b+c-2)-2 = a+b+c-4 holds obviously, **i.e 0 is associative, which indicates that (Z,0) is a semigroup. **What’s more, for each x,2∈Z, we have x02 = x+2-2 = x and 20x = 2+x-2 = x, i.e x02=20x=2, so 2 is the identity of A. which implies (Z,0) is a monoid.
∀ x∈Z, we have 4-x ∈Z, x0(4-x) = x+(4-x)-2 = 2 and (4-x)0x = (4-x)+x-2 = 2 hold obviously, i.e 4-x is the inverse of x for each x ∈ Z, which implies (Z,0) is a group.
∀ a,b∈Z, we have a0b = a+b-2 and b0a = b+a-2, i.e a0b = b0a, which suggests that 0 is commutative.
To sum up, (Z,0) is an Abelian group.
