In mathematics, intransitivity (sometimes called nontransitivity) is a property of binary relations that are not transitive relations. That is, we can find three values a, b, and c where the transitive condition does not hold.
Antitransitivity is a stronger property which describes a relation where, for any three values, the transitivity condition never holds.
