Theorem dfrefrel3 39496

Description: Alternate definition of the reflexive relation predicate. A relation is reflexive iff: for all elements on its domain and range, if an element of its domain is the same as an element of its range, then there is the relation between them.

Note that this is definitely not the definition we are accustomed to, like e.g. idref 7141 / idrefALT 6105 or df-reflexive 50808 ⊢ (𝑅Reflexive𝐴 ↔ (𝑅 ⊆ (𝐴 × 𝐴) ∧ ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴𝑥𝑅𝑥)). It turns out that the not-surprising definition which contains ∀𝑥 ∈ dom 𝑟𝑥𝑟𝑥 needs symmetry as well, see refsymrels3 39550. Only when this symmetry condition holds, like in case of equivalence relations, see dfeqvrels3 39573, can we write the traditional form ∀𝑥 ∈ dom 𝑟𝑥𝑟𝑥 for reflexive relations. For the special case with square Cartesian product when the two forms are equivalent see idinxpssinxp4 39226 where ⊢ (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑥𝑅𝑦) ↔ ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴𝑥𝑅𝑥). See also similar definition of the converse reflexive relations class dfcnvrefrel3 39511. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 8-Jul-2019.)
