21.19.5.14  "Singletonization" and tagging This subsection introduces the "singletonization" and the "tagging" of a class. The singletonization of a class is the class of singletons of elements of that class. It is useful since all nonsingletons are disjoint from it, so one can easily adjoin to it disjoint elements, which is what the tagging does: it adjoins the empty set. This can be used for instance to define the one-point compactification of a topological space. It will be used in the next section to define tuples which work for proper classes.

21.19.5.15  Tuples of classes This subsection gives a definition of an ordered pair, or couple (2-tuple), that "works" for proper classes, as evidenced by Theorems bj-2uplth 37470 and bj-2uplex 37471, and more importantly, bj-pr21val 37462 and bj-pr22val 37468. In particular, one can define well-behaved tuples of classes. Classes in ZF(C) are only virtual, and in particular they cannot be quantified over. Theorem bj-2uplex 37471 has advantages: in view of df-br 5100, several sethood antecedents could be removed from existing theorems. For instance, relsnopg 5774 (resp. relsnop 5776) would hold without antecedents (resp. hypotheses) thanks to relsnb 5773). Also, the antecedent Rel 𝑅 could be removed from brrelex12 5697 and related theorems brrelex*, and, as a consequence, of multiple later theorems. Similarly, df-struct 17166 could be simplified by removing the exception currently made for the empty set. The projections are denoted by pr1 and pr2 and the couple with projections (or coordinates) 𝐴 and 𝐵 is denoted by ⦅𝐴, 𝐵⦆. Note that this definition uses the Kuratowski definition (df-op 4588) as a preliminary definition, and then "redefines" a couple. It could also use the "short" version of the Kuratowski pair (see opthreg 9570) without needing the axiom of regularity; it could even bypass this definition by "inlining" it. This definition is due to Anthony Morse and is expounded (with idiosyncratic notation) in Anthony P. Morse, A Theory of Sets, Academic Press, 1965 (second edition 1986). Note that this extends in a natural way to tuples. A variation of this definition is justified in opthprc 5709, but here we use "tagged versions" of the factors (see df-bj-tag 37424) so that an m-tuple can equal an n-tuple only when m = n (and the projections are the same). A comparison of the different definitions of tuples (strangely not mentioning Morse's), is given in Dominic McCarty and Dana Scott, Reconsidering ordered pairs, Bull. Symbolic Logic, Volume 14, Issue 3 (Sept. 2008), 379--397. where a recursive definition of tuples is given that avoids the two-step definition of tuples and that can be adapted to various set theories. Finally, another survey is Akihiro Kanamori, The empty set, the singleton, and the ordered pair, Bull. Symbolic Logic, Volume 9, Number 3 (Sept. 2003), 273--298.

Syntax	bj-c1upl 37446	Syntax for Morse monuple. (Contributed by BJ, 6-Apr-2019.)
class ⦅𝐴⦆
Definition	df-bj-1upl 37447	Definition of the Morse monuple (1-tuple). This is not useful per se, but is used as a step towards the definition of couples (2-tuples, or ordered pairs). The reason for "tagging" the set is so that an m-tuple and an n-tuple be equal only when m = n. Note that with this definition, the 0-tuple is the empty set. New usage is discouraged because the precise definition is generally unimportant compared to the characteristic properties bj-2upleq 37461, bj-2uplth 37470, bj-2uplex 37471, and the properties of the projections (see df-bj-pr1 37450 and df-bj-pr2 37464).

Theorem	bj-2upln0 37472	A couple is nonempty. (Contributed by BJ, 21-Apr-2019.)
⊢ ⦅𝐴, 𝐵⦆ ≠ ∅
Theorem	bj-2upln1upl 37473	A couple is never equal to a monuple. It is in order to have this "non-clashing" result that tagging was used. Without tagging, we would have ⦅𝐴, ∅⦆ = ⦅𝐴⦆. Note that in the context of Morse tuples, it is natural to define the 0-tuple as the empty set. Therefore, the present theorem together with bj-1upln0 37458 and bj-2upln0 37472 tell us that an m-tuple may equal an n-tuple only when m = n, at least for m, n <= 2, but this result would extend as soon as we define n-tuples for higher values of n.

21.19.5.17  Axioms for finite unions In this section, we introduce the axiom of singleton ax-bj-sn 37482 and the axiom of binary union ax-bj-bun 37486. Both axioms are implied by the standard axioms of unordered pair ax-pr 5389 and of union ax-un 7714 (see snex 5395 and unex 7723). Conversely, the axiom of unordered pair ax-pr 5389 is implied by the axioms of singleton and of binary union, as proved in bj-prexg 37488 and bj-prex 37489. The axioms of union ax-un 7714 and of powerset ax-pow 5321 are independent of these axioms: consider respectively the class of pseudo-hereditarily sets of cardinality less than a given singular strong limit cardinal, see Greg Oman, On the axiom of union, Arch. Math. Logic (2010) 49:283--289 (that model does have finite unions), and the class of well-founded hereditarily countable sets (or hereditarily less than a given uncountable regular cardinal). See also https://mathoverflow.net/questions/81815 5321 and https://mathoverflow.net/questions/48365 5321. A proof by finite induction shows that the existence of finite unions is equivalent to the existence of binary unions and of nullary unions (the latter being the axiom of the empty set ax-nul 5255). The axiom of binary union is useful in theories without the axioms of union ax-un 7714 and of powerset ax-pow 5321. For instance, the class of well-founded sets hereditarily of cardinality at most 𝑛 ∈ ℕ0 with ordinary membership relation is a model of { ax-ext 2733, ax-rep 5226, ax-sep 5245, ax-nul 5255, ax-reg 9537 } and the axioms of existence of unordered 𝑚-tuples for all 𝑚 ≤ 𝑛, and in most cases one would like to rule out such models, hence the need for extra axioms, typically variants of powersets or unions. The axiom of adjunction ax-bj-adj 37491 is more widely used, and is an axiom of General Set Theory. We prove how to retrieve it from binary union and singleton in bj-adjfrombun 37495 and conversely how to prove from adjunction singleton (bj-snfromadj 37493) and unordered pair (bj-prfromadj 37494).

Theorem	bj-pw0ALT 37498	Alternate proof of pw0 4769. The proofs have a similar structure: pw0 4769 uses the definitions of powerclass and singleton as class abstractions, whereas bj-pw0ALT 37498 uses characterizations of their elements. Both proofs then use transitivity of a congruence relation (equality for pw0 4769 and biconditional for bj-pw0ALT 37498) to translate the property ss0b 4354 into the wanted result. To translate a biconditional into a class equality, pw0 4769 uses abbii 2828 (which yields an equality of class abstractions), while bj-pw0ALT 37498 uses eqriv 2758 (which requires a biconditional of membership of a given setvar variable). Note that abbii 2828, through its closed form abbi 2826, is proved from eqrdv 2759, which is the deduction form of eqriv 2758. In the other direction, velpw 4559 and velsn 4597 are proved from the definitions of powerclass and singleton using elabg 3635, which is a version of abbii 2828 suited for membership characterizations.
