From here it is easy to see the relation of concatenation, by virtue of these types of intersection, to the logical conjunction of propositions. The cartesian product <math>P \times Q</math> is described by a conjunction of propositions, namely, <math>P_1 \land Q_2,</math> subject to the following interpretation:
