  • Talk by Prof. Akira Maruoka

    „Consistency of Natural Relations on Sets“

    November 8th, 2007, 5pm ct, ITCS seminar room 2021, Building 64, 2nd floor

    Prof. Maruoka, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Ishinomaki Senshu University, Japan gives a talk, which will be held in English.

    The natural relations for sets are those definable in terms of the emptiness of the subsets corresponding to Boolean combinations of the sets. For pairs of sets, there are just five natural relations of interest, namely, strict inclusion in each direction, disjointness, intersection with the universe being covered, or not. Let N denote {1,2,...,n } and $n \choose 2$ denote { (i,j) | i,j ε N and i < j }. A function g on $n \choose 2$ specifies one of these relations for each pair of indices. Then g is said to be consistent on MN if and only if there exists a collection of sets corresponding to indices in M such that the relations specified by g hold between each associated pair of the sets. It is proved that if g is consistent on all subsets of N of size three then g is consistent on N. It is also shown that the result concerning binary natural relations can be generalized to r-ary natural relations for arbitrary r ≥ 2.
