Relation sumo#trichotomizing_on (pm#binary_relation_type,sumo#set_or_class)
type: pm#binary_predicate_type the class of predicates relating two items - its valence is two
type: pm#asymmetric_relation_type an antisymmetric and irreflexive relation
supertype: pm#relation_to_set_or_class (*,pm#set_or_class)
supertype: pm#relation_to_collection (*,pm#collection)
supertype: pm#relation_from/to_thing_of_common_kind (*) this type permits to categorize relations according to their signatures and hence offers (i) a concise way to set essential exclusion relations, and (ii) a systematic and easy-to-follow categorization
>part of: pm#relation__related_thing__relatedthing___related_with type for any relation (unary, binary, ..., *-ary) and instance of pm#relation_type
supertype: pm#what_relation (*)
supertype: pm#wh-/how_relation (*) this type permits to categorize relations according to the usual who/what/why/where/when/how questions ; this is a traditional but very subjective and ineffective way of categorizing relations
>part of: pm#relation__related_thing__relatedthing___related_with type for any relation (unary, binary, ..., *-ary) and instance of pm#relation_type
supertype: pm#asymmetric_relation (?,?) this category only serves structuration purposes: it is instance of pm#asymmetric_relation_type which is not instance of pm#class_of_inheritable_relation_type
supertype: pm#irreflexive_relation__irreflexiverelation (?,?) this category only serves structuration purposes: it is instance of pm#irreflexive_relation_type which is not instance of pm#class_of_inheritable_relation_type
supertype: pm#binary_relation_with_particular_mathematical_property (?,?)
supertype: pm#relation_with_particular_mathematical_property (*)
supertype: pm#relation_with_particular_property (*) this rather fuzzy type permits to group categorization schemes less common than those covered by the previous sibling categories
>part of: pm#relation__related_thing__relatedthing___related_with type for any relation (unary, binary, ..., *-ary) and instance of pm#relation_type
supertype: pm#antisymmetric_relation__antisymmetricrelation (?,?) this category only serves structuration purposes: it is instance of pm#antisymmetric_relation_type which is not instance of pm#class_of_inheritable_relation_type
