Axiom ax-10 2136
Description: Axiom of Quantified Negation. Axiom C5-2 of [Monk2] p. 113. This axiom scheme is logically redundant (see ax10w 2124) but is used as an auxiliary axiom scheme to achieve scheme completeness. It means that 𝑥 is not free in ¬ ∀𝑥𝜑. (Contributed by NM, 21-May-2008.) Use its alias hbn1 2137 instead if you must use it. Any theorem in first-order logic (FOL) that contains only set variables that are all mutually distinct, and has no wff variables, can be proved *without* using ax-10 2136 through ax-13 2383, by invoking ax10w 2124 through ax13w 2131. We encourage proving theorems *without* ax-10 2136 through ax-13 2383 and moving them up to the ax-4 1801 through ax-9 2115 section. (New usage is discouraged.)
