Number of Asymmetric Relations on a set of N elements

Given a positive integer N, the task is to find the number of Asymmetric Relations in a set of N elements.  Since the number of relations can be very large, print it modulo 109+7.

A relation R on a set A is called Asymmetric if and only if x R y exists, then y R x for every (x, y) € A.
For Example: If set A = {a, b}, then R = {(a, b)} is asymmetric relation.

Examples:

Input: N = 2
Output: 3
Explanation: Considering the set {1, 2}, the total number of possible asymmetric relations are {{}, {(1, 2)}, {(2, 1)}}.

Input: N = 5
Output: 59049

 

Approach: The given problem can be solved based on the following observations:

  • A relation R on a set A is a subset of the Cartesian product of a set, i.e. A * A with N2 elements.
  • There are total N pairs of type (x, x) that are present in the Cartesian product, where any of (x, x) should not be included in the subset.
  • Now, one is left with (N2 – N) elements of the Cartesian product.
  • To satisfy the property of asymmetric relation, one has three possibilities of either to include only of type (x, y) or only of type (y, x) or none from a single group into the subset.
  • Hence, the total number of possible asymmetric relations is equal to 3 (N2 – N) / 2.

Therefore, the idea is to print the value of 3(N2 – N)/2 modulo 109 + 7 as the result.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
const int mod = 1000000007;
 
// Function to calculate
// x^y modulo (10^9 + 7)
int power(long long x,
          unsigned int y)
{
    // Stores the result of x^y
    int res = 1;
 
    // Update x if it exceeds mod
    x = x % mod;
 
    // If x is divisible by mod
    if (x == 0)
        return 0;
 
    while (y > 0) {
 
        // If y is odd, then
        // multiply x with result
        if (y & 1)
            res = (res * x) % mod;
 
        // Divide y by 2
        y = y >> 1;
 
        // Update the value of x
        x = (x * x) % mod;
    }
 
    // Return the final
    // value of x ^ y
    return res;
}
 
// Function to count the number of
// asymmetric relations in a set
// consisting of N elements
int asymmetricRelation(int N)
{
    // Return the resultant count
    return power(3, (N * N - N) / 2);

    return 0;
}

    while (y > 0)
    {
