For S3 objects:

  ?base::Ops

  http://n4.nabble.com/Operator-overloading-td854452.html#a854452
  http://n4.nabble.com/Overloading-td850827.html#a850828

For S4 objects:

  ?methods::Ops

  http://n4.nabble.com/How-to-define-new-operators-td974842.html#a974842


A good resource for reading material on S4 classes, which are more formally
defined than S3 classes, can be found in the R wiki:

Hope this can get you started!
