The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.

Rfv-sense: math senses "injection", "bijection", "bijective". I'm only familiar with this as an adjective meaning "injective", except that the phrase (in) one-to-one correspondence means "(having a) bijection". —RuakhTALK 13:05, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

...which latter is already covered by the other (not nominated) adjective sense "Matching each member of one set with a member of another set".​—msh210 (talk) 15:20, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Yes, the "matching" covers both. I think both this entry and the American version one-on-one would benefit form a single mathematical definition covering both interpretations. Do you really want some citations from text books? I would question the assumption implied in our first definition that the relationship should necessary be "especially sexual". I think we should phrase it so that it depends on context.Dbfirs 10:34, 25 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
