Description: Axiom of Equality. One
of the equality and substitution axioms for a
non-logical predicate in our predicate calculus with equality. It
substitutes equal variables into the left-hand side of the binary
predicate. Axiom scheme C12' in [Megill]
p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint).
It is a special case of Axiom B8 (p. 75) of system S2 of [Tarski] p. 77.
"Non-logical" means that the predicate is not a primitive of
predicate
calculus proper but instead is an extension to it. "Binary"
means that
the predicate has two arguments. |
