Transitivity

* In grammar, a verb is transitive if it takes an object. See transitive verb. * In logic and mathematics, a binary relation ''R'' is transitive if ''xRy'' and ''yRz'' together imply ''xRz''. For example, the ''less-than'' relation is transitive. See transitive relation, intransitivity. * In mathematics, a group action is transitive if it has just one orbit (group theory). It is called doubly transitive if it is transitive on ordered pairs of distinct elements, and so on for triply transitive, etc. An ergodic theory group action is also called ''metrically transitive''.
