Equivalence class - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, given a set X and an equivalence relation ~ on X , the equivalence class of an element a in X is the subset of all elements in X which are equivalent to a : The notion of...

Equivalence relation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, an equivalence relation is, loosely, a binary relation on a set that specifies how to split up (i.e. partition) the set into subsets such that every element of the larger set is in e...

The power of the concept of equivalence class is that operations can be defined on the equivalence classes using representatives from each equivalence class. In order for these operations to be well defined it is necessary that the results of the operations be independent of the class representatives selected.

One problem is how should we refer to the equivalence classes? As we noted above [a] = [b] whenever a and b are equivalent. What we do is choose one and only one element of each equivalence class to represent the class.

Although there are 2339 pentomino tilings of the 6 x 10 rectangle, many pairs of solutions are similar. We show that the solutions can be divided into 911 equivalence classes by the similarity transformations:

As Gertrude Stein said, "There is no there, there." Real numbers have to be equivalence classes of convergent sequences. ... It is essential to define equivalence classes of convergent sequences, but for now this task is postponed until some other constructions are introduced.

Results revealed a significant interaction between the formation of stimulus equivalence classes and stimulus meaning, indicating consistently biased responding in favor of reaching criterion responding more slowly for REBT-related and non-REBT emotionally charged words.

The answer lies in two powerful mechanisms which XML Schema introduces: user-defined types (distinct from element types, but crucially involved in their declaration) and element equivalence classes.
