Abstract

In this chapter we include several examples of concepts of the algebraic hyperstructure theory, which are all based on the concept of ordering. We also show how these concepts could be linked. The reason why we make this selection, is the fact that, in social sciences, objects are often linked in two different ways, which can be represented by an operation (or a hyperoperation) and a relation. The algebraic hyperstructure theory is useful in considerations of social sciences because, in this theory, the result of an interaction of two objects is, generally speaking, a set of objects instead of one particular object.

Notes

  1. 1.

    We use the name “extensive” as this can be found in a number of works by Chvalina and / or his students and collaborators. However, some authors, such as Massouros, use a much more suitable name “closed” as this can be easily contrasted with “open” in the geometrical sense. For basic definitions see e.g. Massouros (2016), Massouros and Massouros (2011), Massouros (1999).

  2. 2.

    Notice that the lower index “n” in “\(\le _n\)” stands for “new” to distinguish (19) from (12), which is defined by means of \(x*y=0\).
