Abstract
Part III is for the more mathematically inclined reader and for those concerned with general structural modelling. It presents some of the general background theory from part of which CRKS theory arises. CRKS theory is the justification for the inclusion of this material. We begin with the general definition of a relation net, and give some other basic definitions. We then present a simple example in order to illustrate some properties of relation nets. Finally we discuss the subnets of a relation net, walks, cascades and Menger’s theorem in a relation net.
