Type	Label	Description
Statement
Theorem	axpweq 4201*	Two equivalent ways to express the Power Set Axiom. Note that ax-pow 4204 is not used by the proof. (Contributed by NM, 22-Jun-2009.)
|- A e. _V   =>    |- ( ~P A e. _V <-> E. x A. y ( A. z ( z e. y -> z e. A ) -> y e. x ) )
2.2.6  Collection principle
Theorem	bnd 4202*	A very strong generalization of the Axiom of Replacement (compare zfrep6 4147). 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 4145. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2004.)
|- ( A. x e. z E. y ph -> E. w A. x e. z E. y e. w ph )
Theorem	bnd2 4203*	A variant of the Boundedness Axiom bnd 4202 that picks a subset z out of a possibly proper class B in which a property is true. (Contributed by NM, 4-Feb-2004.)
|- A e. _V   =>    |- ( A. x e. A E. y e. B ph -> E. z ( z C_ B /\ A. x e. A E. y e. z ph ) )
2.3  IZF Set Theory - add the Axioms of Power Sets and Pairing
2.3.1  Introduce the Axiom of Power Sets
Axiom	ax-pow 4204*	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 4151). The variant axpow2 4206 uses explicit subset notation. A version using class notation is pwex 4213. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)
|- E. y A. z ( A. w ( w e. z -> w e. x ) -> z e. y )
Theorem	zfpow 4205*	Axiom of Power Sets expressed with the fewest number of different variables. (Contributed by NM, 14-Aug-2003.)

|- E. y A. z ( z C_ x -> z e. y )
Theorem	axpow3 4207*	A variant of the Axiom of Power Sets ax-pow 4204. For any set x, there exists a set y whose members are exactly the subsets of x i.e. the power set of x. Axiom Pow of [BellMachover] p. 466. (Contributed by NM, 4-Jun-2006.)
|- E. y A. z ( z C_ x <-> z e. y )

Theorem	dtruarb 4221*	At least two sets exist (or in terms of first-order logic, the universe of discourse has two or more objects). This theorem asserts the existence of two sets which do not equal each other; compare with dtruex 4592 in which we are given a set y and go from there to a set x which is not equal to it. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 2-Sep-2018.)

Theorem	undifexmid 4223*	Union of complementary parts producing the whole and excluded middle. Although special cases such as undifss 3528 and undifdcss 6981 are provable, the full statement implies excluded middle as shown here. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 16-Jun-2022.)
|- ( x C_ y <-> ( x u. ( y \ x ) ) = y )   =>    |- ( ph \/ -. ph )
2.3.2  A notation for excluded middle
Syntax	wem 4224	Formula for an abbreviation of excluded middle.
wff EXMID
Definition	df-exmid 4225	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 4223 with exmidundif 4236. 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 4226 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 4148, in which case EXMID means that all propositions are decidable (see exmidexmid 4226 and notice that it relies on ax-sep 4148). If we instead work with ax-bdsep 15446, EXMID as defined here means that all bounded propositions are decidable. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro and Jim Kingdon, 18-Jun-2022.)
|- (EXMID <-> A. x ( x C_ { (/) } -> DECID (/) e. x ) )
Theorem	exmidexmid 4226	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 844, peircedc 915, or condc 854. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 18-Jun-2022.)
|- (EXMID -> DECID ph )
Theorem	ss1o0el1 4227	A subclass of { (/) } contains the empty set if and only if it equals { (/) }. (Contributed by BJ and Jim Kingdon, 9-Aug-2024.)
|- ( A C_ { (/) } -> ( (/) e. A <-> A = { (/) } ) )
Theorem	exmid01 4228	Excluded middle is equivalent to saying any subset of { (/) } is either (/) or { (/) }. (Contributed by BJ and Jim Kingdon, 18-Jun-2022.)

Theorem	pwntru 4229	A slight strengthening of pwtrufal 15558. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro and Jim Kingdon, 12-Sep-2023.)
|- ( ( A C_ { (/) } /\ A =/= { (/) } ) -> A = (/) )
Theorem	exmid1dc 4230*	A convenience theorem for proving that something implies EXMID. Think of this as an alternative to using a proposition, as in proofs like undifexmid 4223 or ordtriexmid 4554. In this context x = { (/) } can be thought of as "x is true". (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 21-Nov-2023.)

|- (EXMID <-> A. x A. y ( x C_ { y } <-> ( x = (/) \/ x = { y } ) ) )
Theorem	exmidsssnc 4233*	Excluded middle in terms of subsets of a singleton. This is similar to exmid01 4228 but lets you choose any set as the element of the singleton rather than just (/). It is similar to exmidsssn 4232 but for a particular set B rather than all sets. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 29-Jul-2023.)
|- ( B e. V -> (EXMID <-> A. x ( x C_ { B } -> ( x = (/) \/ x = { B } ) ) ) )
Theorem	exmid0el 4234	Excluded middle is equivalent to decidability of (/) being an element of an arbitrary set. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 18-Jun-2022.)

|- (EXMID <-> A. x A. yDECID x e. y )
Theorem	exmidundif 4236*	Excluded middle is equivalent to every subset having a complement. That is, the union of a subset and its relative complement being the whole set. Although special cases such as undifss 3528 and undifdcss 6981 are provable, the full statement is equivalent to excluded middle as shown here. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 18-Jun-2022.)
|- (EXMID <-> A. x A. y ( x C_ y <-> ( x u. ( y \ x ) ) = y ) )
Theorem	exmidundifim 4237*	Excluded middle is equivalent to every subset having a complement. Variation of exmidundif 4236 with an implication rather than a biconditional. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 16-Feb-2023.)
|- (EXMID <-> A. x A. y ( x C_ y -> ( x u. ( y \ x ) ) = y ) )
Theorem	exmid1stab 4238*	If every proposition is stable, excluded middle follows. We are thinking of x as a proposition and x = { (/) } as " x is true". (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 28-Nov-2023.)
|- ( ( ph /\ x C_ { (/) } ) -> STAB x = { (/) } )   =>    |- ( ph -> EXMID )
2.3.3  Axiom of Pairing
Axiom	ax-pr 4239*	The Axiom of Pairing of IZF set theory. Axiom 2 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 4151). (Contributed by NM, 14-Nov-2006.)
