Theorem dvelim 2077

Description: This theorem can be used to eliminate a distinct variable restriction on 𝑥 and 𝑧 and replace it with the "distinctor" ¬ ∀𝑥𝑥 = 𝑦 as an antecedent. 𝜑 normally has 𝑧 free and can be read 𝜑(𝑧), and 𝜓 substitutes 𝑦 for 𝑧 and can be read 𝜑(𝑦). We don't require that 𝑥 and 𝑦 be distinct: if they aren't, the distinctor will become false (in multiple-element domains of discourse) and "protect" the consequent.

To obtain a closed-theorem form of this inference, prefix the hypotheses with ∀𝑥∀𝑧, conjoin them, and apply dvelimdf 2076.

Other variants of this theorem are dvelimf 2075 (with no distinct variable restrictions) and dvelimALT 2070 (that avoids ax-10 1558). (Contributed by NM, 23-Nov-1994.)

Hypotheses

Ref	Expression
dvelim.1	⊢ (𝜑 → ∀𝑥𝜑)
dvelim.2	⊢ (𝑧 = 𝑦 → (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓))

Assertion

Ref	Expression
dvelim	⊢ (¬ ∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦 → (𝜓 → ∀𝑥𝜓))

Distinct variable group:   𝜓,𝑧

Allowed substitution hints:   𝜑(𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧)   𝜓(𝑥, 𝑦)
