Type	Label	Description
Statement
Theorem	abid1 2901*	Every class is equal to a class abstraction (the class of sets belonging to it). Theorem 5.2 of [Quine] p. 35. This is a generalization to classes of cvjust 2759. The proof does not rely on cvjust 2759, so cvjust 2759 could be proved as a special instance of it. Note however that abid1 2901 necessarily relies on df-clel 2840, whereas cvjust 2759 does not. This theorem requires ax-ext 2737, df-clab 2744, df-cleq 2757, df-clel 2840, but to prove that any specific class term not containing class variables is a setvar or is equal to a class abstraction does not require these $a-statements. This last fact is a metatheorem, consequence of the fact that the only $a-statements with typecode class are cv 1562, cab 2743, and statements corresponding to defined class constructors. Note on the simultaneous presence in set.mm of this abid1 2901 and its commuted form abid2 2902: It is rare that two forms so closely related both appear in set.mm. Indeed, such equalities are generally used in later proofs as parts of transitive inferences, and with the many variants of eqtri 2788 (search for *eqtr*), it would be rare that either one would shorten a proof compared to the other. There is typically a choice between what we call a "definitional form", where the shorter expression is on the LHS (left-hand side), and a "computational form", where the shorter expression is on the RHS (right-hand side). An example is df-2 12294 versus 1p1e2 12355. We do not need 1p1e2 12355, but because it occurs "naturally" in computations, it can be useful to have it directly, together with a uniform set of 1-digit operations like 1p2e3 12374, etc. In most cases, we do not need both a definitional and a computational forms. A definitional form would favor consistency with genuine definitions, while a computational form is often more natural. The situation is similar with biconditionals in propositional calculus: see for instance pm4.24 573 and anidm 574, while other biconditionals generally appear in a single form (either definitional, but more often computational). In the present case, the equality is important enough that both abid1 2901 and abid2 2902 are in set.mm. (Contributed by NM, 26-Dec-1993.) (Revised by BJ, 10-Nov-2020.)

⊢ (∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ↔ 𝜑) → 𝐴 = {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑})
Theorem	eqabb 2904*	Equality of a class variable and a class abstraction (also called a class builder). Theorem 5.1 of [Quine] p. 34. This theorem shows the relationship between expressions with class abstractions and expressions with class variables. Note that abbib 2834 and its relatives are among those useful for converting theorems with class variables to equivalent theorems with wff variables, by first substituting a class abstraction for each class variable. Class variables can always be eliminated from a theorem to result in an equivalent theorem with wff variables, and vice-versa. The idea is roughly as follows. To convert a theorem with a wff variable 𝜑 (that has a free variable 𝑥) to a theorem with a class variable 𝐴, we substitute 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 for 𝜑 throughout and simplify, where 𝐴 is a new class variable not already in the wff. An example is the conversion of zfauscl 5253 to inex1 5278 (look at the instance of zfauscl 5253 that occurs in the proof of inex1 5278). Conversely, to convert a theorem with a class variable 𝐴 to one with 𝜑, we substitute {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} for 𝐴 throughout and simplify, where 𝑥 and 𝜑 are new setvar and wff variables not already in the wff. Examples include dfsymdif2 4216 and cp 9865; the latter derives a formula containing wff variables from substitution instances of the class variables in its equivalent formulation cplem2 9864. For more information on class variables, see Quine pp. 15-21 and/or Takeuti and Zaring pp. 10-13. Usage of eqabbw 2838 is preferred since it requires fewer axioms. (Contributed by NM, 26-May-1993.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 12-Feb-2025.)

⊢ (∀𝑦Ⅎ𝑥 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 ↔ ∀𝑧Ⅎ𝑥 𝑧 ∈ 𝐴)
Definition	df-nfc 2914*	Define the not-free predicate for classes. This is read "𝑥 is not free in 𝐴".

It is defined in terms of the not-free predicate df-nf 1807 for wffs; see that definition for more information. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 11-Aug-2016.)
