Theorem ee4anv 2353
Description: Distribute two pairs of existential quantifiers over a conjunction. For a version requiring fewer axioms but with additional disjoint variable conditions, see 4exdistrv 1956. (Contributed by NM, 31-Jul-1995.) Remove disjoint variable conditions on 𝑦, 𝑧 and 𝑥, 𝑤. (Revised by Eric Schmidt, 26-Oct-2025.)
Assertion
Ref Expression
ee4anv (∃𝑥𝑦𝑧𝑤(𝜑𝜓) ↔ (∃𝑥𝑦𝜑 ∧ ∃𝑧𝑤𝜓))
Distinct variable groups:   𝜑,𝑧   𝜑,𝑤   𝜓,𝑥   𝜓,𝑦
Allowed substitution hints:   𝜑(𝑥,𝑦)   𝜓(𝑧,𝑤)
