Theorembj-omex2 17003 Using bounded set induction and the strong axiom of infinity, ω is a set, that is, we recover ax-infvn 16967 (see bj-2inf 16964 for the equivalence of the latter with bj-omex 16968).

14.3.11.2  Full induction

In this section, using the axiom of set induction, we prove full induction on the set of natural numbers.

 
Theorembj-findis 17005* Principle of induction, using implicit substitutions (the biconditional versions of the hypotheses are implicit substitutions, and we have weakened them to implications). Constructive proof (from CZF). See bj-bdfindis 16973 for a bounded version not requiring ax-setind 4684. See finds 4747 for a proof in IZF. From this version, it is easy to prove of finds 4747, finds2 4748, finds1 4749. (Contributed by BJ, 22-Dec-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

14.3.12  CZF: Strong collection

In this section, we state the axiom scheme of strong collection, which is part of CZF set theory.

 
Axiomax-strcoll 17008* Axiom scheme of strong collection. It is stated with all possible disjoint variable conditions, to show that this weak form is sufficient. The antecedent means that 𝜑 represents a multivalued function on 𝑎, or equivalently a collection of nonempty classes indexed by 𝑎, and the axiom asserts the existence of a set 𝑏 which "collects" at least one element in the image of each 𝑥𝑎 and which is made only of such elements. That second conjunct is what makes it "strong", compared to the axiom scheme of collection ax-coll 4246. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
𝑎(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑏𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremstrcoll2 17009* Version of ax-strcoll 17008 with one disjoint variable condition removed and without initial universal quantifier. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑏𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremstrcollnft 17010* Closed form of strcollnf 17011. (Contributed by BJ, 21-Oct-2019.)
(∀𝑥𝑦𝑏𝜑 → (∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑏𝑥𝑎 𝜑)))
 
Theoremstrcollnf 17011* Version of ax-strcoll 17008 with one disjoint variable condition removed, the other disjoint variable condition replaced with a nonfreeness hypothesis, and without initial universal quantifier. Version of strcoll2 17009 with the disjoint variable condition on 𝑏, 𝜑 replaced with a nonfreeness hypothesis.

This proof aims to demonstrate a standard technique, but strcoll2 17009 will generally suffice: since the theorem asserts the existence of a set 𝑏, supposing that that setvar does not occur in the already defined 𝜑 is not a big constraint. (Contributed by BJ, 21-Oct-2019.)

𝑏𝜑       (∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑏𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
TheoremstrcollnfALT 17012* Alternate proof of strcollnf 17011, not using strcollnft 17010. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
𝑏𝜑       (∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑏𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
14.3.13  CZF: Subset collection

In this section, we state the axiom scheme of subset collection, which is part of CZF set theory.

 
Axiomax-sscoll 17013* Axiom scheme of subset collection. It is stated with all possible disjoint variable conditions, to show that this weak form is sufficient. The antecedent means that 𝜑 represents a multivalued function from 𝑎 to 𝑏, or equivalently a collection of nonempty subsets of 𝑏 indexed by 𝑎, and the consequent asserts the existence of a subset of 𝑐 which "collects" at least one element in the image of each 𝑥𝑎 and which is made only of such elements. The axiom asserts the existence, for any sets 𝑎, 𝑏, of a set 𝑐 such that that implication holds for any value of the parameter 𝑧 of 𝜑. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
𝑎𝑏𝑐𝑧(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 → ∃𝑑𝑐 (∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑑 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑑𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremsscoll2 17014* Version of ax-sscoll 17013 with two disjoint variable conditions removed and without initial universal quantifiers. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
𝑐𝑧(∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑏 𝜑 → ∃𝑑𝑐 (∀𝑥𝑎𝑦𝑑 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦𝑑𝑥𝑎 𝜑))
 
14.3.14  Real numbers
 
Axiomax-ddkcomp 17015 Axiom of Dedekind completeness for Dedekind real numbers: every inhabited upper-bounded located set of reals has a real upper bound. Ideally, this axiom should be "proved" as "axddkcomp" for the real numbers constructed from IZF, and then Axiom ax-ddkcomp 17015 should be used in place of construction specific results. In particular, axcaucvg 8267 should be proved from it. (Contributed by BJ, 24-Oct-2021.)
(((𝐴 ⊆ ℝ ∧ ∃𝑥 𝑥𝐴) ∧ ∃𝑥 ∈ ℝ ∀𝑦𝐴 𝑦 < 𝑥 ∧ ∀𝑥 ∈ ℝ ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ (𝑥 < 𝑦 → (∃𝑧𝐴 𝑥 < 𝑧 ∨ ∀𝑧𝐴 𝑧 < 𝑦))) → ∃𝑥 ∈ ℝ (∀𝑦𝐴 𝑦𝑥 ∧ ((𝐵𝑅 ∧ ∀𝑦𝐴 𝑦𝐵) → 𝑥𝐵)))

14.4.1  Propositional and predicate logic
 
Theoremnnnotnotr 17016 Double negation of double negation elimination. Suggested by an online post by Martin Escardo. Although this statement resembles nnexmid 862, it can be proved with reference only to implication and negation (that is, without use of disjunction). (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 21-Oct-2024.)

14.4.2  The sizes of sets
 
Theoremss1oel2o 17017 Any subset of ordinal one being an element of ordinal two is equivalent to excluded middle. A variation of exmid01 4335 which more directly illustrates the contrast with el2oss1o 6716. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 8-Aug-2022.)
(EXMID ↔ ∀𝑥(𝑥 ⊆ 1o𝑥 ∈ 2o))
 
Theorem3dom 17018* A set that dominates ordinal 3 has at least 3 different members. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 12-Feb-2026.)
(3o𝐴 → ∃𝑥𝐴𝑦𝐴𝑧𝐴 (𝑥𝑦𝑥𝑧𝑦𝑧))
 
Theorempw1ndom3lem 17019 Lemma for pw1ndom3 17020. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)
(𝜑𝑋 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑𝑌 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑𝑍 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑𝑋𝑌)    &   (𝜑𝑋𝑍)    &   (𝜑𝑌𝑍)       (𝜑𝑋 = ∅)
 
Theorempw1ndom3 17020 The powerset of 1o does not dominate 3o. This is another way of saying that 𝒫 1o does not have three elements (like pwntru 4336). (Contributed by Steven Nguyen and Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)
¬ 3o ≼ 𝒫 1o
 
Theorempw1ninf 17021 The powerset of 1o is not infinite. Since we cannot prove it is finite (see pw1fin 7217), this provides a concrete example of a set which we cannot show to be finite or infinite, as seen another way at inffiexmid 7213. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)

(𝐴𝑉 → (𝒫 1o𝑚 𝐴) ≈ 𝒫 𝐴)
 
14.4.3  The power set of a singleton
 
Theorempwtrufal 17027 A subset of the singleton {∅} cannot be anything other than or {∅}. Removing the double negation would change the meaning, as seen at exmid01 4335. If we view a subset of a singleton as a truth value (as seen in theorems like exmidexmid 4333), then this theorem states there are no truth values other than true and false, as described in section 1.1 of [Bauer], p. 481. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro and Jim Kingdon, 11-Sep-2023.)

𝑇 = 𝑥𝑁 ({𝑥} × 1o)       ((𝑁 ∈ ω ∧ 𝐺:𝑇1-1→𝒫 1o) → (ran 𝐺 = 𝒫 1o ↔ (𝑁 = 2oEXMID)))
 
Theoremsubctctexmid 17030* If every subcountable set is countable and Markov's principle holds, excluded middle follows. Proposition 2.6 of [BauerSwan], p. 14:4. The proof is taken from that paper. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 29-Nov-2023.)

Theoremstnot 17039* A proposition is double negation stable if and only if it is equivalent to a negated proposition. Here by "proposition" we mean a subset of a singleton (which is a choice which allows us to quantify over them). Posed as an exercise online by Yannick Forster. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 24-Jul-2026.)

Theoremexmidsbth 17069* The Schroeder-Bernstein Theorem is equivalent to excluded middle. This is Metamath 100 proof #25. The forward direction (isbth 7284) is the proof of the Schroeder-Bernstein Theorem from the Metamath Proof Explorer database (in which excluded middle holds), but adapted to use EXMID as an antecedent rather than being unconditionally true, as in the non-intuitionistic proof at https://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/sbth.html 7284.

The reverse direction (exmidsbthr 17068) is the one which establishes that Schroeder-Bernstein implies excluded middle. This resolves the question of whether we will be able to prove Schroeder-Bernstein from our axioms in the negative. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 13-Aug-2022.)

14.4.8  Analytic omniscience principles

Omniscience principles refer to several propositions, most of them weaker than full excluded middle, which do not follow from the axioms of IZF set theory.

They are: (0) the Principle of Omniscience (PO), which is another name for excluded middle (see exmidomni 7482), (1) the Limited Principle of Omniscience (LPO) is ω ∈ Omni (see df-omni 7475), (2) the Weak Limited Principle of Omniscience (WLPO) is ω ∈ WOmni (see df-womni 7504), (3) Markov's Principle (MP) is ω ∈ Markov (see df-markov 7492), (4) the Lesser Limited Principle of Omniscience (LLPO) is not yet defined in iset.mm.

They also have analytic counterparts each of which follows from the corresponding omniscience principle: (1) Analytic LPO is real number trichotomy, 𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ(𝑥 < 𝑦𝑥 = 𝑦𝑦 < 𝑥) (see trilpo 17092), (2) Analytic WLPO is decidability of real number equality, 𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝDECID 𝑥 = 𝑦 (see redcwlpo 17105), (3) Analytic MP is 𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ(𝑥𝑦𝑥 # 𝑦) (see neapmkv 17118), (4) Analytic LLPO is real number dichotomy, 𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ(𝑥𝑦𝑦𝑥) (most relevant current theorem is maxclpr 11988).

Theoremtrilpolemeq1 17089* Lemma for trilpo 17092. The 𝐴 = 1 case. This is proved by noting that if any (𝐹𝑥) is zero, then the infinite sum 𝐴 is less than one based on the term which is zero.

We can use the distance between 𝐴 and one (that is, 1 − 𝐴) to find a position in the sequence 𝑛 where terms after that point will not add up to as much as 1 − 𝐴. By finomni 7480 we know the terms up to 𝑛 either contain a zero or are all one. But if they are all one that contradicts the way we constructed 𝑛, so we know that the sequence contains a zero.

Theoremtrilpo 17092* Real number trichotomy implies the Limited Principle of Omniscience (LPO). We expect that we'd need some form of countable choice to prove the converse.

Here's the outline of the proof. Given an infinite sequence F of zeroes and ones, we need to show the sequence contains a zero or it is all ones. Construct a real number A whose representation in base two consists of a zero, a decimal point, and then the numbers of the sequence. Compare it with one using trichotomy. The three cases from trichotomy are trilpolemlt1 17090 (which means the sequence contains a zero), trilpolemeq1 17089 (which means the sequence is all ones), and trilpolemgt1 17088 (which is not possible).

Equivalent ways to state real number trichotomy (sometimes called "analytic LPO") include decidability of real number apartness (see triap 17078) or that the real numbers are a discrete field (see trirec0 17093).

LPO is known to not be provable in IZF (and most constructive foundations), so this theorem establishes that we will be unable to prove an analogue to qtri3or 10675 for real numbers. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 23-Aug-2023.)

Theoremtrirec0 17093* Every real number having a reciprocal or equaling zero is equivalent to real number trichotomy.

This is the key part of the definition of what is known as a discrete field, so "the real numbers are a discrete field" can be taken as an equivalent way to state real trichotomy (see further discussion at trilpo 17092). (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 10-Jun-2024.)
