Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

First specialize to an endorelation X=YX=Y; restrict to equivalence relations.

How to interpret this relation type

Keep the existing data and select the subclass satisfying an additional law, existence condition, finiteness condition, or other property.

Equivalence relationQuotient space

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

The equivalence relation determines the quotient-set representatives; the topology is then the finest topology making the quotient map continuous.

How to interpret this relation type

A mathematical concept supplies part of the formal language, state space, representation, or analytic machinery used by a scientific or mathematical-physics concept. The source is the mathematical predecessor; this does not claim that physical content follows from mathematics alone.
