Theorem eu3v 2570

Description: An alternate way to express existential uniqueness. (Contributed by NM, 8-Jul-1994.) Replace a nonfreeness hypothesis with a disjoint variable condition on 𝜑, 𝑦 to reduce axiom usage. (Revised by Wolf Lammen, 29-May-2019.)

Assertion

Ref	Expression
eu3v	⊢ (∃!𝑥𝜑 ↔ (∃𝑥𝜑 ∧ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝜑 → 𝑥 = 𝑦)))

Distinct variable groups:   𝑥,𝑦   𝜑,𝑦

Allowed substitution hint:   𝜑(𝑥)
