The relative operator takes two propositions as arguments and reports the value "true" if the first implies the second, otherwise "false".

<math>\Upsilon \langle e, f \rangle = 1 \quad \operatorname{iff} \quad e \Rightarrow f.</math>

Expressing it another way, we may also write:
Expressing it another way, we may also write:

<center>
<center>
<math>\Upsilon \langle e, f \rangle = 1 \quad \Leftrightarrow \quad (e (f)) = 1.</math>
<math>\Upsilon \langle e, f \rangle = 1 \quad \Leftrightarrow \quad (e (f)) = 1.</math>
</center>

In writing this, however, it is important to notice that the 1's appearing on the left and right have different meanings. Filling in the details, we have:
<br>
<center>
<math>\Upsilon \langle e, f \rangle = 1 \in \mathbb{B} \quad \Leftrightarrow \quad (e (f)) = 1 : \mathbb{B}^2 \to \mathbb{B}.</math>
</center>
<br>
Finally, it is often convenient to write the first argument as a subscript, hence <math>\Upsilon_e \langle f \rangle = \Upsilon \langle e, f \rangle.</math>
