Consider renaming *_of_val to *_equal. So:

all_equal
none_equal
any_equal
one_equal

Saying _of_val doesn't actually say anything about relation used in
the algorithm. Maybe *_equal_to so as not to imply that all_equal
means "all values are the same".

You might also consider renaming the header to "quantifier.hpp" since
all of these algorithms quantify some property of a sequence. EoP also
refers to these as quantifiers, IIRC. I left the book at work so I
can't check.

One a side note, I like the addition of one_of to this group. The
implementation is appreciably concise.
