Theorem	bj-equsalhv 37007*	Version of equsalh 2424 with a disjoint variable condition, which does not require ax-13 2376. Remark: this is the same as equsalhw 2297. TODO: delete after moving the following paragraph somewhere. Remarks: equsexvw 2006 has been moved to Main; Theorem ax13lem2 2380 has a DV version which is a simple consequence of ax5e 1913; Theorems nfeqf2 2381, dveeq2 2382, nfeqf1 2383, dveeq1 2384, nfeqf 2385, axc9 2386, ax13 2379, have dv versions which are simple consequences of ax-5 1911.

Theorem	bj-aecomsv 37009*	Version of aecoms 2432 with a disjoint variable condition, provable from Tarski's FOL. The corresponding version of naecoms 2433 should not be very useful since ¬ ∀𝑥𝑥 = 𝑦, DV (𝑥, 𝑦) is true when the universe has at least two objects (see dtru 5386). (Contributed by BJ, 31-May-2019.)

Theorem	bj-axc11v 37010*	Version of axc11 2434 with a disjoint variable condition, which does not require ax-13 2376 nor ax-10 2146. Remark: the following theorems (hbae 2435, nfae 2437, hbnae 2436, nfnae 2438, hbnaes 2439) would need to be totally unbundled to be proved without ax-13 2376, hence would be simple consequences of ax-5 1911 or nfv 1915.

Theorem	bj-nfsab1 37017*	Remove dependency on ax-13 2376 from nfsab1 2722. UPDATE / TODO: nfsab1 2722 does not use ax-13 2376 either anymore; bj-nfsab1 37017 is shorter than nfsab1 2722 but uses ax-12 2184. (Contributed by BJ, 23-Jun-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

⊢ (𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑥 ≠ 𝑦)    ⇒   ⊢ (𝜑 ∧ ¬ 𝜑)
21.19.4.13  Distinct var metavariables The closed formula ∀𝑥∀𝑦𝑥 = 𝑦 approximately means that the var metavariables 𝑥 and 𝑦 represent the same variable vi. In a domain with at most one object, however, this formula is always true, hence the "approximately" in the previous sentence.
Theorem	bj-hbaeb2 37019	Biconditional version of a form of hbae 2435 with commuted quantifiers, not requiring ax-11 2162. (Contributed by BJ, 12-Dec-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

21.19.4.14  Around ~ equsal As a rule of thumb, if a theorem of the form ⊢ (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓) ⇒ ⊢ (𝜒 ↔ 𝜃) is in the database, and the "more precise" theorems ⊢ (𝜑 → 𝜓) ⇒ ⊢ (𝜒 → 𝜃) and ⊢ (𝜓 → 𝜑) ⇒ ⊢ (𝜃 → 𝜒) also hold (see bj-bisym 36790), then they should be added to the database. The present case is similar. Similar additions can be done regarding equsex 2422 (and equsalh 2424 and equsexh 2425). Even if only one of these two theorems holds, it should be added to the database.
Theorem	bj-equsal1t 37023	Duplication of wl-equsal1t 37743, with shorter proof. If one imposes a disjoint variable condition on x,y , then one can use alequexv 2002 and reduce axiom dependencies, and similarly for the following theorems. Note: wl-equsalcom 37744 is also interesting. (Contributed by BJ, 6-Oct-2018.)

Theorem	bj-dvelimdv 37052*	Deduction form of dvelim 2455 with disjoint variable conditions. Uncurried (imported) form of bj-dvelimdv1 37053. 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 2328 followed by nfn 1858. Remark: nfald 2333 uses ax-11 2162; it might be possible to inline and use ax11w 2135 instead, but there is still a use via 19.12 2332 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 2708, df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 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 2708, df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }) 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 37067, eliminable-abeqv 37068, eliminable-abeqab 37069, eliminable-velab 37066, eliminable-abelv 37070, eliminable-abelab 37071 respectively, which are all proved from {FOL, ax-ext 2708, df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }. (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 2715, dfcleq 2729 (proved from {FOL, ax-ext 2708, df-cleq 2728 }), and dfclel 2812 (proved from {FOL, df-clel 2811 }). 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 37061, eliminable2b 37062 and eliminable3a 37064, 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 2715 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 2715, ax-ext 2708 and df-cleq 2728 are sufficient (over FOL) to eliminate class terms. To prove that { df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 } provides a definitional extension of {FOL, ax-ext 2708 }, 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 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }. 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 2708 }. 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 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }. 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 2708. One could move all theorems from cab 2714 to df-clel 2811 (except for dfcleq 2729 and cvjust 2730) 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 2728. Note that without ax-ext 2708, the $a-statements df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, and df-clel 2811 are no longer eliminable (see previous section) (but PROBABLY df-clab 2715 is still conservative , while df-cleq 2728 and df-clel 2811 are not). This is not a reason not to study what is provable with them but without ax-ext 2708, 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 2824 / eleq2 2825 to eleq1w 2819 / eleq2w 2820 can also be done with eleq1i 2827, eqeltri 2832, eqeltrri 2833, eleq1a 2831, eleq1d 2821, eqeltrd 2836, eqeltrrd 2837, eqneltrd 2856, eqneltrrd 2857, nelneq 2860. Remark: possibility to remove dependency on ax-10 2146, ax-11 2162, ax-13 2376 from nfcri 2890 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 2911.
Theorem	bj-denoteslem 37072*	Duplicate of issettru 2814 and bj-issettruALTV 37074. Lemma for bj-denotesALTV 37073. (Contributed by BJ, 24-Apr-2024.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
⊢ (∃𝑥 𝑥 = 𝐴 ↔ 𝐴 ∈ {𝑦 ∣ ⊤})
Theorem	bj-denotesALTV 37073*	Moved to main as iseqsetv-clel 2815 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 2740, requires the core axioms and { ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2708, df-cleq 2728 } whereas this proof requires the core axioms and { ax-8 2115, df-clab 2715, df-clel 2811 }. Theorem bj-issetwt 37076 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 2715, df-clel 2811 } (whereas with the shorter proof from cbvexvw 2038 and eqeq1 2740 it would require { ax-8 2115, ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2708, df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }). That every class is equal to a class abstraction is proved by abid1 2872, which requires { ax-8 2115, ax-9 2123, ax-ext 2708, df-clab 2715, df-cleq 2728, df-clel 2811 }. Note that there is no disjoint variable condition on 𝑥, 𝑦 but the theorem does not depend on ax-13 2376. Actually, the proof depends only on the logical axioms ax-1 6 through ax-7 2009 and sp 2190. 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 2708 and df-cleq 2728 (e.g., eqid 2736 and eqeq1 2740). In particular, one cannot even prove ⊢ ∃𝑥𝑥 = 𝐴 ⇒ ⊢ 𝐴 = 𝐴 without ax-ext 2708 and df-cleq 2728. (Contributed by BJ, 29-Apr-2019.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

21.19.5.3  Characterization among sets versus among classes
Theorem	elelb 37098	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).
