A statement about a relationship usually involves three elements: the two elements between which the relationship is being discussed, and the relationship itself.

It is also important that there are relationships between relationships; that is, a relationship is nothing more than a kind of concept.

Being in a relationship, two elements form a complex element. Relationship between a body and an arm is there, but their relationships to the organism are primary.

Yes, concepts exist for relationships as well (with properties), but I find them special, like concepts themselves.

Generally, the theory of relations is fairly well-developed in mathematics; AI systems simply have to use it.

I agree but I have noticed that existing mathematics is too rigorous, for my purposes it needs to be relaxed.
