Math Problem Statement
Solution
The uploaded image contains mathematical problems related to partial orders ("предпорядки") and equivalence relations ("эквивалентности"). I'll provide an overview of the key points in the tasks:
Problem 1
- Verify that:
- The inversion of any partial order on a set is also a partial order on .
- The Cartesian product of two partial orders and on is a partial order on .
- The union of an increasing chain of partial orders on is still a partial order on .
- The intersection of partial orders on is also a partial order on .
Problem 2
-
(a) Let be the set of all partial orders on :
- Prove that the maximal elements in correspond exactly to the linear orders on .
- Is there a minimal element in ?
-
(b) Is the Cartesian product of two linear orders also a linear order?
-
(c) Prove the existence of a bijection between the set of all partial orders on and the set of all strict partial orders on . Similarly, for linear orders.
-
(d) Prove the existence of a bijection between the set of equivalence relations on and the set of partitions of .
Problem 3
- A linear order on a set is called complete if every non-empty subset of has a supremum. Are the sets of natural numbers, rational numbers, and real numbers complete in this sense?
Problem 4
-
(a) Verify that every chain of partial orders in has an infimum and a supremum under the inclusion relation.
-
(b) Define factor sets for specific equivalence relations, such as congruence classes of integers mod 5, and parallelism of lines in a plane.
-
(c) Check whether the given conditions define equivalence relations, like , and discuss the equivalence in terms of certain functions.

Tip:
When working with partial orders, remember that reflexivity, antisymmetry, and transitivity are the key properties to verify in any relation to check if it's a valid partial order.
