Transitive set
From Wiki @ Karl Jones dot com
In set theory, a set A is transitive, if and only if
- whenever x ∈ A, and y ∈ x, then y ∈ A, or, equivalently,
- whenever x ∈ A, and x is not an urelement, then x is a subset of A.
Similarly, a class M is transitive if every element of M is a subset of M.
