There are relations in mathematics.  These 
  just are not the relations of a relational data language.  These are the 
  relations of a relational calculus or a relational algebra, both kinds of 
  logic.

Here is unorthodox view. I 
    queried Mathworld for "Relation" and fidn't find any. Hence the conclusion: 
    "There is no Relation in 
math!"
