Theorem	bj-dvelimdv 36916*	Deduction form of dvelim 2453 with disjoint variable conditions. Uncurried (imported) form of bj-dvelimdv1 36917. Typically, 𝑧 is a fresh variable used for the implicit substitution hypothesis that results in 𝜒 (namely, 𝜓 can be thought as 𝜓(𝑥, 𝑦) and 𝜒 as 𝜓(𝑥, 𝑧)). So the theorem says that if x is effectively free in 𝜓(𝑥, 𝑧), then if x and y are not the same variable, then 𝑥 is also effectively free in 𝜓(𝑥, 𝑦), in a context 𝜑. One can weaken the implicit substitution hypothesis by adding the antecedent 𝜑 but this typically does not make the theorem much more useful. Similarly, one could use nonfreeness hypotheses instead of disjoint variable conditions but since this result is typically used when 𝑧 is a dummy variable, this would not be of much benefit. One could also remove DV (𝑥, 𝑧) since in the proof nfv 1915 can be replaced with nfal 2326 followed by nfn 1858. Remark: nfald 2331 uses ax-11 2162; it might be possible to inline and use ax11w 2135 instead, but there is still a use via 19.12 2330 anyway. (Contributed by BJ, 20-Oct-2021.)

21.19.5  Set theory
21.19.5.1  Eliminability of class terms In this section, we give a sketch of the proof of the Eliminability Theorem for class terms in an extensional set theory where quantification occurs only over set variables. Eliminability of class variables using the $a-statements ax-ext 2705, df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 is an easy result, proved for instance in Appendix X of Azriel Levy, Basic Set Theory, Dover Publications, 2002. Note that viewed from the set.mm axiomatization, it is a metatheorem not formalizable in set.mm. It states: every formula in the language of FOL + ∈ + class terms, but without class variables, is provably equivalent (over {FOL, ax-ext 2705, df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }) to a formula in the language of FOL + ∈ (that is, without class terms). The proof goes by induction on the complexity of the formula (see op. cit. for details). The base case is that of atomic formulas. The atomic formulas containing class terms are of one of the six following forms: for equality, 𝑥 = {𝑦 ∣ 𝜑}, {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} = 𝑦, {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} = {𝑦 ∣ 𝜓}, and for membership, 𝑦 ∈ {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑}, {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} ∈ 𝑦, {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} ∈ {𝑦 ∣ 𝜓}. These cases are dealt with by eliminable-veqab 36931, eliminable-abeqv 36932, eliminable-abeqab 36933, eliminable-velab 36930, eliminable-abelv 36934, eliminable-abelab 36935 respectively, which are all proved from {FOL, ax-ext 2705, df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }. (Details on the proof of the above six theorems. To understand how they were systematically proved, look at the theorems "eliminablei" below, which are special instances of df-clab 2712, dfcleq 2726 (proved from {FOL, ax-ext 2705, df-cleq 2725 }), and dfclel 2809 (proved from {FOL, df-clel 2808 }). Indeed, denote by (i) the formula proved by "eliminablei". One sees that the RHS of (1) has no class terms, the RHS's of (2x) have only class terms of the form dealt with by (1), and the RHS's of (3x) have only class terms of the forms dealt with by (1) and (2a). Note that in order to prove eliminable2a 36925, eliminable2b 36926 and eliminable3a 36928, we need to substitute a class variable for a setvar variable. This is possible because setvars are class terms: this is the content of the syntactic theorem cv 1540, which is used in these proofs (this does not appear in the html pages but it is in the set.mm file and you can check it using the Metamath program).) The induction step relies on the fact that any formula is a FOL-combination of atomic formulas, so if one found equivalents for all atomic formulas constituting the formula, then the same FOL-combination of these equivalents will be equivalent to the original formula. Note that one has a slightly more precise result: if the original formula has only class terms appearing in atomic formulas of the form 𝑦 ∈ {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑}, then df-clab 2712 is sufficient (over FOL) to eliminate class terms, and if the original formula has only class terms appearing in atomic formulas of the form 𝑦 ∈ {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} and equalities, then df-clab 2712, ax-ext 2705 and df-cleq 2725 are sufficient (over FOL) to eliminate class terms. To prove that { df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 } provides a definitional extension of {FOL, ax-ext 2705 }, one needs to prove both the above Eliminability Theorem, which compares the expressive powers of the languages with and without class terms, and the Conservativity Theorem, which compares the deductive powers when one adds { df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }. It states that a formula without class terms is provable in one axiom system if and only if it is provable in the other, and that this remains true when one adds further definitions to {FOL, ax-ext 2705 }. It is also proved in op. cit. The proof is more difficult, since one has to construct for each proof of a statement without class terms, an associated proof not using { df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }. It involves a careful case study on the structure of the proof tree.

21.19.5.2  Classes without the axiom of extensionality A few results about classes can be proved without using ax-ext 2705. One could move all theorems from cab 2711 to df-clel 2808 (except for dfcleq 2726 and cvjust 2727) in a subsection "Classes" before the subsection on the axiom of extensionality, together with the theorems below. In that subsection, the last statement should be df-cleq 2725. Note that without ax-ext 2705, the $a-statements df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, and df-clel 2808 are no longer eliminable (see previous section) (but PROBABLY df-clab 2712 is still conservative , while df-cleq 2725 and df-clel 2808 are not). This is not a reason not to study what is provable with them but without ax-ext 2705, in order to gauge their strengths more precisely. Before that subsection, a subsection "The membership predicate" could group the statements with ∈ that are currently in the FOL part (including wcel 2113, wel 2114, ax-8 2115, ax-9 2123). Remark: the weakening of eleq1 2821 / eleq2 2822 to eleq1w 2816 / eleq2w 2817 can also be done with eleq1i 2824, eqeltri 2829, eqeltrri 2830, eleq1a 2828, eleq1d 2818, eqeltrd 2833, eqeltrrd 2834, eqneltrd 2853, eqneltrrd 2854, nelneq 2857. Remark: possibility to remove dependency on ax-10 2146, ax-11 2162, ax-13 2374 from nfcri 2887 and theorems using it if one adds a disjoint variable condition (that theorem is typically used with dummy variables, so the disjoint variable condition addition is not very restrictive), and then shorten nfnfc 2908.
Theorem	bj-denoteslem 36936*	Duplicate of issettru 2811 and bj-issettruALTV 36938. Lemma for bj-denotesALTV 36937. (Contributed by BJ, 24-Apr-2024.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
⊢ (∃𝑥 𝑥 = 𝐴 ↔ 𝐴 ∈ {𝑦 ∣ ⊤})
Theorem	bj-denotesALTV 36937*	Moved to main as iseqsetv-clel 2812 and kept for the comments. This would be the justification theorem for the definition of the unary predicate "E!" by ⊢ ( E! 𝐴 ↔ ∃𝑥𝑥 = 𝐴) which could be interpreted as "𝐴 exists" (as a set) or "𝐴 denotes" (in the sense of free logic). A shorter proof using bitri 275 (to add an intermediate proposition ∃𝑧𝑧 = 𝐴 with a fresh 𝑧), cbvexvw 2038, and eqeq1 2737, requires the core axioms and { ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2705, df-cleq 2725 } whereas this proof requires the core axioms and { ax-8 2115, df-clab 2712, df-clel 2808 }. Theorem bj-issetwt 36940 proves that "existing" is equivalent to being a member of a class abstraction. It also requires, with the present proof, { ax-8 2115, df-clab 2712, df-clel 2808 } (whereas with the shorter proof from cbvexvw 2038 and eqeq1 2737 it would require { ax-8 2115, ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2705, df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }). That every class is equal to a class abstraction is proved by abid1 2869, which requires { ax-8 2115, ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2705, df-clab 2712, df-cleq 2725, df-clel 2808 }. Note that there is no disjoint variable condition on 𝑥, 𝑦 but the theorem does not depend on ax-13 2374. Actually, the proof depends only on the logical axioms ax-1 6 through ax-7 2009 and sp 2188. The symbol "E!" was chosen to be reminiscent of the analogous predicate in (inclusive or non-inclusive) free logic, which deals with the possibility of nonexistent objects. This analogy should not be taken too far, since here there are no equality axioms for classes: these are derived from ax-ext 2705 and df-cleq 2725 (e.g., eqid 2733 and eqeq1 2737). In particular, one cannot even prove ⊢ ∃𝑥𝑥 = 𝐴 ⇒ ⊢ 𝐴 = 𝐴 without ax-ext 2705 and df-cleq 2725. (Contributed by BJ, 29-Apr-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

Theorem	bj-issetw 36941*	The closest one can get to isset 3451 without using ax-ext 2705. See also vexw 2717. Note that the only disjoint variable condition is between 𝑦 and 𝐴. From there, one can prove isset 3451 using eleq2i 2825 (which requires ax-ext 2705 and df-cleq 2725). (Contributed by BJ, 29-Apr-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

Prefer its use over bj-rexcom4b 36948 when sufficient (in particular when 𝑉 is substituted for V). Note the 𝑉 in the hypothesis instead of V. (Contributed by BJ, 14-Sep-2019.)

21.19.5.3  Characterization among sets versus among classes
Theorem	elelb 36962	Equivalence between two common ways to characterize elements of a class 𝐵: the LHS says that sets are elements of 𝐵 if and only if they satisfy 𝜑 while the RHS says that classes are elements of 𝐵 if and only if they are sets and satisfy 𝜑. Therefore, the LHS is a characterization among sets while the RHS is a characterization among classes. Note that the LHS is often formulated using a class variable instead of the universe V while this is not possible for the RHS (apart from using 𝐵 itself, which would not be very useful). (Contributed by BJ, 26-Feb-2023.)

21.19.5.4  The nonfreeness quantifier for classes In this section, we prove the symmetry of the nonfreeness quantifier for classes.
Theorem	bj-nfcsym 36964	The nonfreeness quantifier for classes defines a symmetric binary relation on var metavariables (irreflexivity is proved by nfnid 5315 with additional axioms; see also nfcv 2895). This could be proved from aecom 2429 and nfcvb 5316 but the latter requires a domain with at least two objects (hence uses extra axioms). (Contributed by BJ, 30-Sep-2018.) Proof modification is discouraged to avoid use of eqcomd 2739 instead of equcomd 2020; removing dependency on ax-ext 2705 is possible: prove weak versions (i.e. replace classes with setvars) of drnfc1 2915, eleq2d 2819 (using elequ2 2128), nfcvf 2922, dvelimc 2921, dvelimdc 2920, nfcvf2 2923.
