You can use the contains (or is contained) operator for that:

   array[1,7,3] <@ array[1,3,4,7] is true

   array[1,7,10] <@ array[1,3,4,7] is false

> b) at least one item exists in the array

You can use the "overlaps" operator: 

   array[1,7,3] && array[1,3,4,7] returns true

   array[10,11] && array[1,3,4,7] returns false

For the contains or (is contained) operator the order matters, for the overlaps 
operator it does not.
