Summary:
By an equivalence system is meant a couple $\mathcal{A} = (A,\theta )$ where $A$ is a non-void set and $\theta $ is an equivalence on $A$. A mapping $h$ of an equivalence system $\mathcal{A}$ into $\mathcal{B}$ is called a class preserving mapping if $h([a]_{\theta }) = [h(a)]_{\theta {^{\prime }}}$ for each $a \in A$. We will characterize class preserving mappings by means of permutability of $\theta $ with the equivalence $\Phi _{h}$ induced by $h$.
