Theorem just3-df 2091
Description: Third justification theorem for definitions whose definiens is a conjunction, as in df-sb 2094. In addition to the defining equivalence, the second hypothesis requires the conjuncts of the definiens to be equivalent.

When the conjuncts are quantified and differ only by a bound-variable renaming, this equivalence is usually obtained from an implicit substitution between the underlying expressions. In some cases, however, it can be proved more directly and with fewer axioms.

Under these assumptions, either conjunct implies the definiendum. Together with just1-df 2089, the definiendum is therefore equivalent to either conjunct. (Contributed by Wolf Lammen, 6-Jun-2026.)
