Definition df-refrel 38468

Description: Define the reflexive relation predicate. (Read: 𝑅 is a reflexive relation.) This is a surprising definition, see the comment of dfrefrel3 38472. Alternate definitions are dfrefrel2 38471 and dfrefrel3 38472. For sets, being an element of the class of reflexive relations (df-refrels 38467) is equivalent to satisfying the reflexive relation predicate, that is (𝑅 ∈ RefRels ↔ RefRel 𝑅) when 𝑅 is a set, see elrefrelsrel 38476.

Assertion

Ref	Expression
df-refrel	⊢ ( RefRel 𝑅 ↔ (( I ∩ (dom 𝑅 × ran 𝑅)) ⊆ (𝑅 ∩ (dom 𝑅 × ran 𝑅)) ∧ Rel 𝑅))
