Idea

An equivalence relation is a relation valued in propositions, which is reflexive,symmetric, and transitive.

Properties

Symmetry induces equivalences R(x,y) ≃ R(y,x)

equiv-symmetric-equivalence-relation R =
  equiv-iff'
    ( prop-equivalence-relation R _ _)
    ( prop-equivalence-relation R _ _)
    ( iff-symmetric-equivalence-relation R)

Transitivity induces equivalences R(y,z) ≃ R(x,z)

  transitive-equivalence-relation R _ _ _
    ( s)
    ( symmetric-equivalence-relation R _ _ r)

  equiv-iff'
    ( prop-equivalence-relation R _ _)
    ( prop-equivalence-relation R _ _)

Transitivity induces equivalences R(x,y) ≃ R(x,z)

  sim-equivalence-relation R y z
