What is the relationship between a Bitcoin Private Key / Public Key / Address?

What is the relationship between a Bitcoin Private Key / Public Key / Address? I see that a private key / public key pair is generated, but is there a possibility of generating a private key already in use? And, also I'm assuming that a wallet address is a bitcoin address? Does each wallet address have a one-one relationship with a private key?

Thanks
