KB Term:

asymmetric relation

A BinaryRelation is asymmetric if and only if it is both an AntisymmetricRelation and an IrreflexiveRelation.

Relationships
Parents	antisymmetric relation	BinaryRelation ?REL is an AntisymmetricRelation if for distinct ?INST1 and ?INST2, (?REL ?INST1 ?INST2) implies not (?REL ?INST2 ?INST1). In other words, for all ?INST1 and ?INST2, (?REL ?INST1 ?INST2) and (?REL ?INST2 ?INST1) imply that ?INST1 and ?INST2 are identical. Note that it is possible for an AntisymmetricRelation to be a ReflexiveRelation.
	irreflexive relation	Relation ?REL is irreflexive iff (?REL ?INST ?INST) holds for no value of ?INST.
Children	case role	The Class of Predicates relating the spatially distinguished parts of a Process. CaseRoles include, for example, the agent, patient or destination of an action, the flammable substance in a burning process, or the water that falls in rain.
	propositional attitude	The Class of IntentionalRelations where the Agent has awareness of a Proposition.
