Axiom ax-10 2145

Description: Axiom of Quantified Negation. Axiom C5-2 of [Monk2] p. 113. This axiom scheme is logically redundant (see ax10w 2133) 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 2146 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 2145 through ax-13 2390, by invoking ax10w 2133 through ax13w 2140. We encourage proving theorems *without* ax-10 2145 through ax-13 2390 and moving them up to the ax-4 1810 through ax-9 2124 section. (New usage is discouraged.)
