| Theorem | cdavali 5070 | Value of cardinal addition. Definition of cardinal sum in [Mendelson] p. 258. For cardinal arithmetic, we follow Mendelson. Rather than defining operations restricted to cardinal numbers, we use this disjoint union operation for addition, while cross product and set exponentiation stand in for cardinal multiplication and exponentiation. Equinumerosity and dominance serve the roles of equality and ordering. If we wanted to, we could easily convert our theorems to actual cardinal number operations via carden 4979, carddom 4985, and cardsdom 4986. The advantage of Mendelson's approach is that we can directly use many equinumerosity theorems that we already have available. |

| Theorem | pm110.643 5074 |
1+1=2 for cardinal number addition. Theorem *110.643 of Principia
Mathematica, vol. II, p. 86, which adds the remark, "The above
proposition is occasionally useful." Unlike us, Whitehead and
Russell
define cardinal addition on collections of all sets equinumerous to 1 and
2 (which for us are proper classes unless we restrict them as in
karden 4872), but after applying definitions, our theorem
is equivalent.
