Type	Label	Description
Statement
Theorem	mt3 201	A rule similar to modus tollens. Inference associated with con1i 147. (Contributed by NM, 18-May-1994.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 11-Sep-2013.)
⊢ ¬ 𝜓    &   ⊢ (¬ 𝜑 → 𝜓)    ⇒   ⊢ 𝜑
Theorem	peirce 202	Peirce's axiom. A non-intuitionistic implication-only statement. Added to intuitionistic (implicational) propositional calculus, it gives classical (implicational) propositional calculus. For another non-intuitionistic positive statement, see curryax 892. When ⊥ is substituted for 𝜓, then this becomes the Clavius law pm2.18 128. (Contributed by NM, 29-Dec-1992.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 9-Oct-2012.)
⊢ (((𝜑 → 𝜓) → 𝜑) → 𝜑)
Theorem	looinv 203	The Inversion Axiom of the infinite-valued sentential logic (L-infinity) of Lukasiewicz. Using dfor2 900, we can see that this essentially expresses "disjunction commutes". Theorem *2.69 of [WhiteheadRussell] p. 108. It is a special instance of the axiom "Roll", see peirceroll 85. (Contributed by NM, 12-Aug-2004.)
⊢ (((𝜑 → 𝜓) → 𝜓) → ((𝜓 → 𝜑) → 𝜑))
Theorem	bijust0 204	A self-implication (see id 22) does not imply its own negation. The justification theorem bijust 205 is one of its instances. (Contributed by NM, 11-May-1999.) (Proof shortened by Josh Purinton, 29-Dec-2000.) Extract bijust0 204 from proof of bijust 205. (Revised by BJ, 19-Mar-2020.)
⊢ ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜑) → ¬ (𝜑 → 𝜑))
Theorem	bijust 205	Theorem used to justify the definition of the biconditional df-bi 207. Instance of bijust0 204. (Contributed by NM, 11-May-1999.)
⊢ ¬ ((¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)) → ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑))) → ¬ (¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)) → ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑))))
1.2.5  Logical equivalence Definition df-bi 207 in this section is our first definition, which introduces and defines the biconditional connective ↔ used to denote logical equivalence. We define a wff of the form (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓) as an abbreviation for ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)). Unlike most traditional developments, we have chosen not to have a separate symbol such as "Df." to mean "is defined as". Instead, we will later use the biconditional connective for this purpose (df-an 396 is its first use), as it allows to use logic to manipulate definitions directly. This greatly simplifies many proofs since it eliminates the need for a separate mechanism for introducing and eliminating definitions. A note on definitions: definitions are required to be eliminable (that is, a theorem stated in terms of the defined symbol can also be stated without it) and conservative (that is, a theorem whose statement does not contain the defined symbol can be proved without using that definition). This means that a definition does not increase the expressive power nor the deductive power, respectively, of a theory. On the other hand, definitions are often useful to write shorter proofs, so in (i)set.mm we will generally not try to avoid them. This is why, for instance, some theorems which do not contain disjunction in their statement are placed after the section on disjunction because a shorter proof using disjunction is possible.
Syntax	wb 206	Extend wff definition to include the biconditional connective.
wff (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓)
Definition	df-bi 207	Define the biconditional (logical "iff" or "if and only if"), also called biimplication. Definition df-bi 207 in this section is our first definition, which introduces and defines the biconditional connective ↔. We define a wff of the form (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓) as an abbreviation for ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)). Unlike most traditional developments, we have chosen not to have a separate symbol such as "Df." to mean "is defined as". Instead, we will later use the biconditional connective for this purpose (df-or 847 is its first use), as it allows to use logic to manipulate definitions directly. This greatly simplifies many proofs since it eliminates the need for a separate mechanism for introducing and eliminating definitions. Of course, we cannot use this mechanism to define the biconditional itself, since it hasn't been introduced yet. Instead, we use a more general form of definition, described as follows. In its most general form, a definition is simply an assertion that introduces a new symbol (or a new combination of existing symbols, as in df-3an 1089) that is eliminable and does not strengthen the existing language. The latter requirement means that the set of provable statements not containing the new symbol (or new combination) should remain exactly the same after the definition is introduced. Our definition of the biconditional may look unusual compared to most definitions, but it strictly satisfies these requirements. The justification for our definition is that if we mechanically replace (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓) (the definiendum i.e. the thing being defined) with ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)) (the definiens i.e. the defining expression) in the definition, the definition becomes the previously proved theorem bijust 205. It is impossible to use df-bi 207 to prove any statement expressed in the original language that can't be proved from the original axioms, because if we simply replace each instance of df-bi 207 in the proof with the corresponding bijust 205 instance, we will end up with a proof from the original axioms. Note that from Metamath's point of view, a definition is just another axiom - i.e. an assertion we claim to be true - but from our high level point of view, we are not strengthening the language. To indicate this fact, we prefix definition labels with "df-" instead of "ax-". (This prefixing is an informal convention that means nothing to the Metamath proof verifier; it is just a naming convention for human readability.) After we define the constant true ⊤ (df-tru 1540) and the constant false ⊥ (df-fal 1550), we will be able to prove these truth table values: ((⊤ ↔ ⊤) ↔ ⊤) (trubitru 1566), ((⊤ ↔ ⊥) ↔ ⊥) (trubifal 1568), ((⊥ ↔ ⊤) ↔ ⊥) (falbitru 1567), and ((⊥ ↔ ⊥) ↔ ⊤) (falbifal 1569). See dfbi1 213, dfbi2 474, and dfbi3 1050 for theorems suggesting typical textbook definitions of ↔, showing that our definition has the properties we expect. Theorem dfbi1 213 is particularly useful if we want to eliminate ↔ from an expression to convert it to primitives. Theorem dfbi 475 shows this definition rewritten in an abbreviated form after conjunction is introduced, for easier understanding. Contrast with ∨ (df-or 847), → (wi 4), ⊼ (df-nan 1489), and ⊻ (df-xor 1509). In some sense ↔ returns true if two truth values are equal; = (df-cleq 2732) returns true if two classes are equal. (Contributed by NM, 27-Dec-1992.)

Theorem	dfbi1 213	Relate the biconditional connective to primitive connectives. See dfbi1ALT 214 for an unusual version proved directly from axioms. (Contributed by NM, 29-Dec-1992.)
⊢ ((𝜑 ↔ 𝜓) ↔ ¬ ((𝜑 → 𝜓) → ¬ (𝜓 → 𝜑)))
Theorem	dfbi1ALT 214	Alternate proof of dfbi1 213. This proof, discovered by Gregory Bush on 8-Mar-2004, has several curious properties. First, it has only 17 steps directly from the axioms and df-bi 207, compared to over 800 steps were the proof of dfbi1 213 expanded into axioms. Second, step 2 demands only the property of "true"; any axiom (or theorem) could be used. It might be thought, therefore, that it is in some sense redundant, but in fact no proof is shorter than this (measured by number of steps). Third, it illustrates how intermediate steps can "blow up" in size even in short proofs. Fourth, the compressed proof is only 182 bytes (or 17 bytes in D-proof notation), but the generated web page is over 200kB with intermediate steps that are essentially incomprehensible to humans (other than Gregory Bush). If there were an obfuscated code contest for proofs, this would be a contender. This "blowing up" and incomprehensibility of the intermediate steps vividly demonstrate the advantages of using many layered intermediate theorems, since each theorem is easier to understand. (Contributed by Gregory Bush, 10-Mar-2004.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
