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 17207* 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 17175 for a bounded version not requiring ax-setind 4686. See finds 4749 for a proof in IZF. From this version, it is easy to prove of finds 4749, finds2 4750, finds1 4751. (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 17210* 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 𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 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 4248. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
∀𝑎(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremstrcoll2 17211* Version of ax-strcoll 17210 with one disjoint variable condition removed and without initial universal quantifier. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremstrcollnft 17212* Closed form of strcollnf 17213. (Contributed by BJ, 21-Oct-2019.)
(∀𝑥∀𝑦Ⅎ𝑏𝜑 → (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑)))
 
Theoremstrcollnf 17213* Version of ax-strcoll 17210 with one disjoint variable condition removed, the other disjoint variable condition replaced with a nonfreeness hypothesis, and without initial universal quantifier. Version of strcoll2 17211 with the disjoint variable condition on 𝑏, 𝜑 replaced with a nonfreeness hypothesis.

This proof aims to demonstrate a standard technique, but strcoll2 17211 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.)

Ⅎ𝑏𝜑    ⇒   (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑))
 
TheoremstrcollnfALT 17214* Alternate proof of strcollnf 17213, not using strcollnft 17212. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
Ⅎ𝑏𝜑    ⇒   (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑏(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 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 17215* 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 𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 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.)
∀𝑎∀𝑏∃𝑐∀𝑧(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 → ∃𝑑 ∈ 𝑐 (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑑 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑑 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑))
 
Theoremsscoll2 17216* Version of ax-sscoll 17215 with two disjoint variable conditions removed and without initial universal quantifiers. (Contributed by BJ, 5-Oct-2019.)
∃𝑐∀𝑧(∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑏 𝜑 → ∃𝑑 ∈ 𝑐 (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑑 𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑑 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝑎 𝜑))
 
14.3.14  Real numbers
 
Axiomax-ddkcomp 17217 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 17217 should be used in place of construction specific results. In particular, axcaucvg 8273 should be proved from it. (Contributed by BJ, 24-Oct-2021.)
(((𝐴 ⊆ ℝ ∧ ∃𝑥 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴) ∧ ∃𝑥 ∈ ℝ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 𝑦 < 𝑥 ∧ ∀𝑥 ∈ ℝ ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ (𝑥 < 𝑦 → (∃𝑧 ∈ 𝐴 𝑥 < 𝑧 ∨ ∀𝑧 ∈ 𝐴 𝑧 < 𝑦))) → ∃𝑥 ∈ ℝ (∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 𝑦 ≤ 𝑥 ∧ ((𝐵 ∈ 𝑅 ∧ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 𝑦 ≤ 𝐵) → 𝑥 ≤ 𝐵)))
 
14.4  Mathbox for Jim Kingdon
 
14.4.1  Propositional and predicate logic
 
Theoremnnnotnotr 17218 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 17219 Any subset of ordinal one being an element of ordinal two is equivalent to excluded middle. A variation of exmid01 4337 which more directly illustrates the contrast with el2oss1o 6720. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 8-Aug-2022.)

(3o ≼ 𝐴 → ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 ∃𝑧 ∈ 𝐴 (𝑥 ≠ 𝑦 ∧ 𝑥 ≠ 𝑧 ∧ 𝑦 ≠ 𝑧))
 
Theorempw1ndom3lem 17221 Lemma for pw1ndom3 17222. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)
(𝜑 → 𝑋 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑 → 𝑌 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑 → 𝑍 ∈ 𝒫 1o)    &   (𝜑 → 𝑋 ≠ 𝑌)    &   (𝜑 → 𝑋 ≠ 𝑍)    &   (𝜑 → 𝑌 ≠ 𝑍)    ⇒   (𝜑 → 𝑋 = ∅)
 
Theorempw1ndom3 17222 The powerset of 1o does not dominate 3o. This is another way of saying that 𝒫 1o does not have three elements (like pwntru 4338). (Contributed by Steven Nguyen and Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)
¬ 3o ≼ 𝒫 1o
 
Theorempw1ninf 17223 The powerset of 1o is not infinite. Since we cannot prove it is finite (see pw1fin 7221), this provides a concrete example of a set which we cannot show to be finite or infinite, as seen another way at inffiexmid 7217. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 14-Feb-2026.)

Theoremnnti 17224 Ordering on a natural number generates a tight apartness. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 7-Aug-2022.)

Theorempw1map 17227* Mapping between (𝒫 1o ↑𝑚 𝐴) and subsets of 𝐴. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 9-Jan-2026.)
𝐹 = (𝑠 ∈ (𝒫 1o ↑𝑚 𝐴) ↦ {𝑧 ∈ 𝐴 ∣ (𝑠‘𝑧) = 1o})    ⇒   (𝐴 ∈ 𝑉 → 𝐹:(𝒫 1o ↑𝑚 𝐴)–1-1-onto→𝒫 𝐴)
 
Theorempw1mapen 17228 Equinumerosity of (𝒫 1o ↑𝑚 𝐴) and the set of subsets of 𝐴. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 10-Jan-2026.)
(𝐴 ∈ 𝑉 → (𝒫 1o ↑𝑚 𝐴) ≈ 𝒫 𝐴)
 
14.4.3  The power set of a singleton
 
Theorempwtrufal 17229 A subset of the singleton {∅} cannot be anything other than ∅ or {∅}. Removing the double negation would change the meaning, as seen at exmid01 4337. If we view a subset of a singleton as a truth value (as seen in theorems like exmidexmid 4335), 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.)

Theorempwf1oexmid 17231* An exercise related to 𝑁 copies of a singleton and the power set of a singleton (where the latter can also be thought of as representing truth values). Posed as an exercise by Martin Escardo online. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 3-Sep-2023.)
𝑇 = ∪ 𝑥 ∈ 𝑁 ({𝑥} × 1o)    ⇒   ((𝑁 ∈ ω ∧ 𝐺:𝑇–1-1→𝒫 1o) → (ran 𝐺 = 𝒫 1o ↔ (𝑁 = 2o ∧ EXMID)))
 
Theoremsubctctexmid 17232* 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.)

Theorempw1nct 17235* A condition which ensures that the powerset of a singleton is not countable. The antecedent here can be referred to as the uniformity principle. Based on Mastodon posts by Andrej Bauer and Rahul Chhabra. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 29-May-2024.)

Theoremexmidnotnotr 17238 Excluded middle is equivalent to double negation elimination. Read an element of 𝒫 1o as being a truth value and 𝑥 = 1o being that 𝑥 is true. For a similar theorem, but expressed in terms of formulas rather than subsets of 1o, see dcfromnotnotr 1497. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 22-Apr-2026.)

Theoremexmidpeirce 17240* Excluded middle is equivalent to Peirce's law. Read an element of 𝒫 1o as being a truth value and 𝑥 = 1o being that 𝑥 is true. For a similar theorem, but expressed in terms of formulas rather than subsets of 1o, see dcfrompeirce 1499. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 23-Apr-2026.)
(EXMID ↔ ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝒫 1o∀𝑦 ∈ 𝒫 1o(((𝑥 = 1o → 𝑦 = 1o) → 𝑥 = 1o) → 𝑥 = 1o))
 
Theoremstnot 17241* 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.

14.4.5  Disjoint unions
 
Theoremidjudju 17249* An indexed disjoint union over two sets equals the disjoint union of those two sets. This connects our notation for an indexed disjoint union, ∪ 𝑥 ∈ 𝐶({𝑥} × 𝐹) which uses df-iun 4014, with our notation for the disjoint union of two sets (df-dju 7384).

Theoremnninfall 17255* Given a decidable predicate on ℕ∞, showing it holds for natural numbers and the point at infinity suffices to show it holds everywhere.

Theoremexmidsbth 17272* The Schroeder-Bernstein Theorem is equivalent to excluded middle. This is Metamath 100 proof #25.

The reverse direction (exmidsbthr 17271) 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.)

14.4.9  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 7488), (1) the Limited Principle of Omniscience (LPO) is ω ∈ Omni (see df-omni 7481), (2) the Weak Limited Principle of Omniscience (WLPO) is ω ∈ WOmni (see df-womni 7510), (3) Markov's Principle (MP) is ω ∈ Markov (see df-markov 7498), (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 < 𝑦 ∨ 𝑥 = 𝑦 ∨ 𝑦 < 𝑥) (see trilpo 17296), (2) Analytic WLPO is decidability of real number equality, ∀𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝDECID 𝑥 = 𝑦 (see redcwlpo 17309), (3) Analytic MP is ∀𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ(𝑥 ≠ 𝑦 → 𝑥 # 𝑦) (see neapmkv 17322), (4) Analytic LLPO is real number dichotomy, ∀𝑥 ∈ ℝ∀𝑦 ∈ ℝ(𝑥 ≤ 𝑦 ∨ 𝑦 ≤ 𝑥) (most relevant current theorem is maxclpr 12011).

Theoremtrilpolemeq1 17293* Lemma for trilpo 17296. The 𝐴 = 1 case. This is proved by noting that if any (𝐹‘𝑥) is zero, then the infinite sum 𝐴 is less than one based on the term which is zero.

By finomni 7486 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 17296* 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 17294 (which means the sequence contains a zero), trilpolemeq1 17293 (which means the sequence is all ones), and trilpolemgt1 17292 (which is not possible).

Equivalent ways to state real number trichotomy (sometimes called "analytic LPO") include decidability of real number apartness (see triap 17281) or that the real numbers are a discrete field (see trirec0 17297).

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 10692 for real numbers. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 23-Aug-2023.)

Theoremtrirec0 17297* 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 17296). (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 10-Jun-2024.)
