Theorem List for Intuitionistic Logic Explorer - 4001-4100   *Has distinct variable group(s)
TypeLabelDescription
Statement
 
Theoremtrint 4001* The intersection of a class of transitive sets is transitive. Exercise 5(b) of [Enderton] p. 73. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 25-Feb-2011.)
 |-  ( A. x  e.  A  Tr  x  ->  Tr  |^| A )
 
Theoremtrintssm 4002* Any inhabited transitive class includes its intersection. Similar to Exercise 3 in [TakeutiZaring] p. 44 (which mistakenly does not include the inhabitedness hypothesis). (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 22-Aug-2018.)
 |-  ( ( Tr  A  /\  E. x  x  e.  A )  ->  |^| A  C_  A )
 
2.2  IZF Set Theory - add the Axioms of Collection and Separation
 
2.2.1  Introduce the Axiom of Collection
 
Axiomax-coll 4003* Axiom of Collection. Axiom 7 of [Crosilla], p. "Axioms of CZF and IZF" (with unnecessary quantifier removed). It is similar to bnd 4056 but uses a freeness hypothesis in place of one of the distinct variable constraints. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 23-Aug-2018.)
 |- 
 F/ b ph   =>    |-  ( A. x  e.  a  E. y ph  ->  E. b A. x  e.  a  E. y  e.  b  ph )
 
Theoremrepizf 4004* Axiom of Replacement. Axiom 7' of [Crosilla], p. "Axioms of CZF and IZF" (with unnecessary quantifier removed). In our context this is not an axiom, but a theorem proved from ax-coll 4003. It is identical to zfrep6 4005 except for the choice of a freeness hypothesis rather than a distinct variable constraint between  b and  ph. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 23-Aug-2018.)
 |- 
 F/ b ph   =>    |-  ( A. x  e.  a  E! y ph  ->  E. b A. x  e.  a  E. y  e.  b  ph )
 
Theoremzfrep6 4005* A version of the Axiom of Replacement. Normally  ph would have free variables  x and  y. Axiom 6 of [Kunen] p. 12. The Separation Scheme ax-sep 4006 cannot be derived from this version and must be stated as a separate axiom in an axiom system (such as Kunen's) that uses this version. (Contributed by NM, 10-Oct-2003.)
 |-  ( A. x  e.  z  E! y ph  ->  E. w A. x  e.  z  E. y  e.  w  ph )
 
2.2.2  Introduce the Axiom of Separation
 
Axiomax-sep 4006* The Axiom of Separation of IZF set theory. Axiom 6 of [Crosilla], p. "Axioms of CZF and IZF" (with unnecessary quantifier removed, and with a  F/ y ph condition replaced by a distinct variable constraint between  y and  ph).

The Separation Scheme is a weak form of Frege's Axiom of Comprehension, conditioning it (with  x  e.  z) so that it asserts the existence of a collection only if it is smaller than some other collection  z that already exists. This prevents Russell's paradox ru 2877. In some texts, this scheme is called "Aussonderung" or the Subset Axiom.

 |- 
 E. y A. x ( x  e.  y  <->  ( x  e.  z  /\  ph ) )
 
Theoremaxsep2 4007* A less restrictive version of the Separation Scheme ax-sep 4006, where variables  x and  z can both appear free in the wff  ph, which can therefore be thought of as  ph ( x ,  z ). This version was derived from the more restrictive ax-sep 4006 with no additional set theory axioms. (Contributed by NM, 10-Dec-2006.) (Proof shortened by Mario Carneiro, 17-Nov-2016.)
 |- 
 E. y A. x ( x  e.  y  <->  ( x  e.  z  /\  ph ) )
 
Theoremzfauscl 4008* Separation Scheme (Aussonderung) using a class variable. To derive this from ax-sep 4006, we invoke the Axiom of Extensionality (indirectly via vtocl 2711), which is needed for the justification of class variable notation. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)
 |-  A  e.  _V   =>    |-  E. y A. x ( x  e.  y  <->  ( x  e.  A  /\  ph )
 )
 
Theorembm1.3ii 4009* Convert implication to equivalence using the Separation Scheme (Aussonderung) ax-sep 4006. Similar to Theorem 1.3ii of [BellMachover] p. 463. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)
 |- 
 E. x A. y
 ( ph  ->  y  e.  x )   =>    |- 
 E. x A. y

Theorema9evsep 4010* Derive a weakened version of ax-i9 1493, where  x and  y must be distinct, from Separation ax-sep 4006 and Extensionality ax-ext 2097. The theorem  -.  A. x -.  x  =  y also holds (ax9vsep 4011), but in intuitionistic logic  E. x x  =  y is stronger. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 25-Aug-2018.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
 |- 
 E. x  x  =  y
 
Theoremax9vsep 4011* Derive a weakened version of ax-9 1494, where  x and  y must be distinct, from Separation ax-sep 4006 and Extensionality ax-ext 2097. In intuitionistic logic a9evsep 4010 is stronger and also holds. (Contributed by NM, 12-Nov-2013.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
 |- 
 -.  A. x  -.  x  =  y
 
2.2.3  Derive the Null Set Axiom
 
Theoremzfnuleu 4012* Show the uniqueness of the empty set (using the Axiom of Extensionality via bm1.1 2100 to strengthen the hypothesis in the form of axnul 4013). (Contributed by NM, 22-Dec-2007.)
 |- 
 E. x A. y  -.  y  e.  x   =>    |-  E! x A. y  -.  y  e.  x
 
Theoremaxnul 4013* The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory: there exists a set with no elements. Axiom of Empty Set of [Enderton] p. 18. In some textbooks, this is presented as a separate axiom; here we show it can be derived from Separation ax-sep 4006. This version of the Null Set Axiom tells us that at least one empty set exists, but does not tell us that it is unique - we need the Axiom of Extensionality to do that (see zfnuleu 4012).

This theorem should not be referenced by any proof. Instead, use ax-nul 4014 below so that the uses of the Null Set Axiom can be more easily identified. (Contributed by Jeff Hoffman, 3-Feb-2008.) (Revised by NM, 4-Feb-2008.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

 |- 
 E. x A. y  -.  y  e.  x
 
Axiomax-nul 4014* The Null Set Axiom of IZF set theory. It was derived as axnul 4013 above and is therefore redundant, but we state it as a separate axiom here so that its uses can be identified more easily. Axiom 4 of [Crosilla] p. "Axioms of CZF and IZF". (Contributed by NM, 7-Aug-2003.)
 |- 
 E. x A. y  -.  y  e.  x
 
Theorem0ex 4015 The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory: the empty set exists. Corollary 5.16 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 20. For the unabbreviated version, see ax-nul 4014. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 9-Jul-2011.)

Theoremrepizf2lem 4045 Lemma for repizf2 4046. If we have a function-like proposition which provides at most one value of  y for each  x in a set  w, we can change "at most one" to "exactly one" by restricting the values of  x to those values for which the proposition provides a value of  y. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 7-Sep-2018.)
 |-  ( A. x  e.  w  E* y ph  <->  A. x  e.  { x  e.  w  |  E. y ph } E! y ph )
 
Theoremrepizf2 4046* Replacement. This version of replacement is stronger than repizf 4004 in the sense that  ph does not need to map all values of  x in  w to a value of  y. The resulting set contains those elements for which there is a value of  y and in that sense, this theorem combines repizf 4004 with ax-sep 4006. Another variation would be  A. x  e.  w E* y ph  ->  { y  |  E. x ( x  e.  w  /\  ph ) }  e.  _V but we don't have a proof of that yet. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 7-Sep-2018.)

2.2.6  Collection principle
 
Theorembnd 4056* A very strong generalization of the Axiom of Replacement (compare zfrep6 4005). Its strength lies in the rather profound fact that  ph ( x ,  y ) does not have to be a "function-like" wff, as it does in the standard Axiom of Replacement. This theorem is sometimes called the Boundedness Axiom. In the context of IZF, it is just a slight variation of ax-coll 4003. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2004.)

2.3  IZF Set Theory - add the Axioms of Power Sets and Pairing
 
2.3.1  Introduce the Axiom of Power Sets
 
Axiomax-pow 4058* Axiom of Power Sets. An axiom of Intuitionistic Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. It states that a set 
y exists that includes the power set of a given set  x i.e. contains every subset of  x. This is Axiom 8 of [Crosilla] p. "Axioms of CZF and IZF" except (a) unnecessary quantifiers are removed, and (b) Crosilla has a biconditional rather than an implication (but the two are equivalent by bm1.3ii 4009).

2.3.2  A notation for excluded middle
 
Syntaxwem 4078 Formula for an abbreviation of excluded middle.
 wff EXMID
 
Definitiondf-exmid 4079 The expression EXMID will be used as a readable shorthand for any form of the law of the excluded middle; this is a useful shorthand largely because it hides statements of the form "for any proposition" in a system which can only quantify over sets, not propositions.

To see how this compares with other ways of expressing excluded middle, compare undifexmid 4077 with exmidundif 4089. The former may be more recognizable as excluded middle because it is in terms of propositions, and the proof may be easier to follow for much the same reason (it just has to show  ph and  -.  ph in the the relevant parts of the proof). The latter, however, has the key advantage of being able to prove both directions of the biconditional. To state that excluded middle implies a proposition is hard to do gracefully without EXMID, because there is no way to write a hypothesis  ph  \/  -.  ph for an arbitrary proposition; instead the hypothesis would need to be the particular instance of excluded middle which that proof needs. Or to say it another way, EXMID implies DECID  ph by exmidexmid 4080 but there is no good way to express the converse.

This definition and how we use it is easiest to understand (and most appropriate to assign the name "excluded middle" to) if we assume ax-sep 4006, in which case EXMID means that all propositions are decidable (see exmidexmid 4080 and notice that it relies on ax-sep 4006). If we instead work with ax-bdsep 12774, EXMID as defined here means that all bounded propositions are decidable.

 |-  (EXMID  <->  A. x ( x  C_  { (/) }  -> DECID  (/)  e.  x ) )
 
Theoremexmidexmid 4080 EXMID implies that an arbitrary proposition is decidable. That is, EXMID captures the usual meaning of excluded middle when stated in terms of propositions.

To get other propositional statements which are equivalent to excluded middle, combine this with notnotrdc 811, peircedc 882, or condc 821.
