Theorem 2eu4 2654
Description: This theorem provides us with a definition of double existential uniqueness ("exactly one 𝑥 and exactly one 𝑦"). Naively one might think (incorrectly) that it could be defined by ∃!𝑥∃!𝑦𝜑. See 2eu1 2650 for a condition under which the naive definition holds and 2exeu 2645 for a one-way implication. See 2eu5 2655 and 2eu8 2658 for alternate definitions. (Contributed by NM, 3-Dec-2001.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 14-Sep-2019.)
