Abstract

A multiset is a collection of objects in which repetition of elements is significant. In this paper an attempt is made to generalize the concepts of relation, function, composition and equivalence in the multiset context. As a pre-requisite a brief survey of the axiomatic approach to the multiset theory is also presented.
