Theorem	disjimeldisjdmqs 39622	Disj implies element-disjoint quotient carrier. Supplies the carrier-disjointness half of the Disjs pattern: under Disj 𝑅, the coset family is element-disjoint. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 5-Feb-2026.)

⊢ Disjs ⊆ Rels
Theorem	eldisjsim3 39626	Disjs implies element-disjoint quotient carrier. Exports the carrier-disjointness property in the ElDisjs packaging. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 11-Feb-2026.)
⊢ (𝑅 ∈ Disjs → (dom 𝑅 / 𝑅) ∈ ElDisjs )
Theorem	eldisjsim4 39627	Disjs implies element-disjoint range of QMap. Same as eldisjsim3 39626 but expressed using the block-map range ran QMap 𝑅 (often the more modular expression). (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 15-Feb-2026.)
⊢ (𝑅 ∈ Disjs → ran QMap 𝑅 ∈ ElDisjs )
Theorem	eldisjsim5 39628	Disjs is closed under QMap. If a relation is "disjoint-structured" (Disjs), then its canonical block map is also "disjoint-structured". This is the second "structure level" in Disjs: it expresses that the property is stable under passing to the canonical block map, a theme that mirrors Pet-grade stability at a different axis. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 15-Feb-2026.)
⊢ (𝑅 ∈ Disjs → QMap 𝑅 ∈ Disjs )
Theorem	eldisjs6 39629	Elementhood in the class of disjoints. A relation 𝑅 is in Disjs iff: it is relation-typed, and its quotient-map QMap 𝑅 is itself disjoint, and its quotient-carrier ran QMap 𝑅 = (dom 𝑅 / 𝑅) lies in ElDisjs (element-disjoint carriers). This is the central "stability-by-decomposition" theorem for Disjs: it explains why Disjs is internally well-behaved without adding an external stability clause. It is the exact template that PetParts imitates: for pet 39654, the analogue of "map layer" is the disjointness of the lifted span, the analogue of "carrier layer" is the block-lift fixpoint (BlockLiftFix), and then adds external grade stability (SucMap ShiftStable) which Disjs does not need. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 16-Feb-2026.)
⊢ (𝑅 ∈ Disjs ↔ (𝑅 ∈ Rels ∧ (ran QMap 𝑅 ∈ ElDisjs ∧ QMap 𝑅 ∈ Disjs )))
Theorem	eldisjs7 39630*	Elementhood in the class of disjoints. 𝑅 ∈ Disjs iff: 𝑅 ∈ Rels, and every 𝑥 belongs to at most one block 𝑢 in the quotient-carrier (dom 𝑅 / 𝑅) (element-disjointness at the carrier), and every block 𝑢 in the quotient-carrier has a unique representative 𝑡 ∈ dom 𝑅 such that 𝑢 = [𝑡]𝑅. Provides the "fully expanded" quantifier characterization of the same decomposition as eldisjs6 39629, but without explicitly mentioning QMap. This is the "E*/E!"" view that is closest in spirit to suc11reg 9598-style injectivity and to the "unique generator per block" narrative. It is also the right contrast-point to older one-line criteria like dfdisjs4 39485 (the "u R x" style), because it makes the carrier and representation discipline explicit and type-safe. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 16-Feb-2026.)
⊢ (𝑅 ∈ Disjs ↔ (𝑅 ∈ Rels ∧ (∀𝑥∃*𝑢 ∈ (dom 𝑅 / 𝑅)𝑥 ∈ 𝑢 ∧ ∀𝑢 ∈ (dom 𝑅 / 𝑅)∃!𝑡 ∈ dom 𝑅 𝑢 = [𝑡]𝑅)))
Theorem	dfdisjs6 39631	Alternate definition of the class of disjoints (via quotient-map stability). Disjs is the class of relations 𝑟 whose quotient-map QMap 𝑟 is again disjoint and whose induced quotient-carrier is element-disjoint. This is the definitional "stability-by-decomposition" packaging of disjointness: it builds Disjs from two internal layers (i) a carrier-layer constraint and (ii) a map-layer closure constraint. This is deliberately different from "u R x" style definitions: it makes the carrier of blocks and the uniqueness-of-representatives discipline first-class and reusable (via QMap) rather than implicit. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 16-Feb-2026.)
⊢ Disjs = {𝑟 ∈ Rels ∣ (ran QMap 𝑟 ∈ ElDisjs ∧ QMap 𝑟 ∈ Disjs )}
Theorem	dfdisjs7 39632*	Alternate definition of the class of disjoints (via carrier disjointness + unique representatives). Ideology-free normal form of dfdisjs6 39631: "blocks cover their elements" (∃*) and "each block has a unique generator" (∃!), expressed entirely at the quotient-carrier level. Same class as dfdisjs6 39631, but presented in fully expanded ∃* / ∃! form over the quotient-carrier (dom 𝑟 / 𝑟). Makes explicit (a) element-disjointness of the quotient-carrier and (b) unique representative existence for each block. These are exactly the two conditions that rule out type-confusions (blocks vs witnesses) and ensure canonical decomposition. This is the form that best supports analogy arguments with df-petparts 39657 and with successor-style uniqueness patterns. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 16-Feb-2026.)

Theorem	pet 39654	Partition-Equivalence Theorem with general 𝑅 while preserving the restricted converse epsilon relation of mpet2 39643 (as opposed to petincnvepres 39652).

It is no more general than the conventional Member Partition-Equivalence Theorem mpet 39642, mpet2 39643 and mpet3 39639 (because you cannot set 𝑅 in this theorem in such a way that you get mpet2 39643), i.e., it is not the hypothetical General Partition-Equivalence Theorem gpet ⊢ (𝑅 Part 𝐴 ↔ ≀ 𝑅 ErALTV 𝐴), but this one has a general part that mpet2 39643 lacks: 𝑅, which is sufficient for my future application of set theory, for my purpose outside of set theory.

21.26.23  Type-safe Partition-Equivalence: PetParts, PetErs, Pet2Parts, Pet2Ers
Definition	df-petparts 39657*	Define the class of partition-side general partition-equivalence spans. ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ PetParts means: (1) 𝑟 is a set-relation (𝑟 ∈ Rels), and (2) 𝑛 is a membership block-carrier (𝑛 ∈ MembParts), and (3) the block-lift span (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) is a generalized partition on its natural quotient-carrier 𝑛 (i.e. (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) Parts 𝑛). This is the horizontal feasibility base object on the partition side, expressed in the type-safe Parts language. The explicit typing (𝑟 ∈ Rels ∧ 𝑛 ∈ MembParts ) is included at the definition level so later modular refinements can treat typedness as a first-class component (e.g. intersecting a typedness module with disjointness and equilibrium modules) without repeatedly restating it. In particular, it lets decompositions such as dfpetparts2 39661 be written as clean intersections whose first conjunct is exactly the typedness module ( Rels × MembParts ).

⊢ PetParts = {⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∣ ((𝑟 ∈ Rels ∧ 𝑛 ∈ MembParts ) ∧ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) Parts 𝑛)}
Definition	df-peters 39658*	Define the class of equivalence-side general partition-equivalence spans. ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ PetErs means: (1) 𝑟 is a set-relation (𝑟 ∈ Rels), and (2) 𝑛 is a carrier recognized on the equivalence side of membership (𝑛 ∈ CoMembErs), and (3) the coset relation of the lifted span, ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)), is an equivalence relation on its natural quotient with carrier 𝑛 (i.e. ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) Ers 𝑛). This packages the equivalence-view of the same lifted construction that underlies PetParts. It is designed to be parallel to PetParts so later proofs can freely choose the partition side (Parts) or the equivalence side (Ers) without rebuilding the bridge each time; the identification is provided by petseq 39665 (using typesafepets 39664 and mpets 39645). The explicit typing (𝑟 ∈ Rels ∧ 𝑛 ∈ CoMembErs ) is included for the same reason as in df-petparts 39657: to make typedness a reusable module. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 19-Feb-2026.) (Revised by Peter Mazsa, 25-Feb-2026.)
⊢ PetErs = {⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∣ ((𝑟 ∈ Rels ∧ 𝑛 ∈ CoMembErs ) ∧ ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) Ers 𝑛)}
Definition	df-pet2parts 39659	Define the class of grade- and blocklift-stable partition-side general partition-equivalence spans. It consists of those ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ PetParts such that ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ remains in PetParts after shifting one grade along SucMap (via ShiftStable). Concretely: ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ PetParts and there exists a predecessor 𝑚 with suc 𝑚 = 𝑛 such that ⟨𝑟, 𝑚⟩ ∈ PetParts (encoded by SucMap ∘ PetParts inside ShiftStable). I.e., it introduces the external (tower/grade) stability axis. This is the "4th level" for pet 39654 (see dfpet2parts2 39662): beyond (i) carrier membership partition, (ii) disjointness, and (iii) semantic equilibrium, we require (iv) stability under a canonical grade shift. PetParts already enforces disjointness and the quotient-carrier equation for the lifted span (hence semantic equilibrium via dfpetparts2 39661). Pet2Parts adds the external grade (tower) stability axis via df-shiftstable 39171 with SucMap. This (iv) is why we need explicit second-level Pet2Parts, while Disjs typically does not: Disjs already packages its own internal two-step consistency (carrier + map) by dfdisjs6 39631 / dfdisjs7 39632, whereas pet 39654 has an additional grade axis that must be imposed separately. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 19-Feb-2026.)

Definition	df-pet2ers 39660	Define the class of grade- and blocklift-stable equivalence-side general partition-equivalence spans. The equivalence-side analogue of Pet2Parts: stability of PetErs under one-step grade shift along SucMap. Ensures that the equivalence-side formulation supports the same tower/grade infrastructure as the partition-side formulation. SucMap ShiftStable is the grade axis and does not change the equivalence-vs-partition viewpoint (reinforced by pets2eq 39666). (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 19-Feb-2026.)
⊢ Pet2Ers = ( SucMap ShiftStable PetErs )
Theorem	dfpetparts2 39661*	Alternate definition of PetParts as typedness + disjoint-span + block-lift equilibrium. This theorem is the key modularization step. It decomposes PetParts into the intersection of three orthogonal modules: (T) typedness: ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ ( Rels × MembParts ), (D) disjoint-span: (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) ∈ Disjs, (E) semantic equilibrium: ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∈ BlockLiftFix, i.e. the carrier 𝑛 is a fixpoint of the induced block-generation operator. Conceptually, (D) provides the disjointness/quotient discipline for the lifted span, while (E) prevents hidden carrier drift (refinement or coarsening of what counts as a block) by enforcing the fixpoint equation. The point of this theorem is that these constraints can be imposed and reused independently by later constructions, while their intersection recovers the intended Parts-based notion. This mirrors the internal packaging of Disjs (see dfdisjs6 39631 / dfdisjs7 39632): for disjoint relations, the "map layer + carrier layer" decomposition is internal via QMap and ElDisjs; for PetParts, the carrier 𝑛 is an external parameter, so the additional carrier stability must be factored explicitly as BlockLiftFix. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 20-Feb-2026.) (Revised by Peter Mazsa, 25-Feb-2026.)
⊢ PetParts = ((( Rels × MembParts ) ∩ {⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∣ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) ∈ Disjs }) ∩ BlockLiftFix )
Theorem	dfpet2parts2 39662*	Grade stability applied to the decomposed PetParts modules. Pet2Parts is obtained by applying the grade-stability operator SucMap ShiftStable (see df-shiftstable 39171) to the modular intersection from dfpetparts2 39661. This makes the two orthogonal stability axes explicit: (E) semantic stability / equilibrium: BlockLiftFix, (G) grade stability: SucMap ShiftStable, assembled on top of typedness and disjoint-span base modules. This is the principled "extra level" that does not arise for Disjs: disjoint relations already bundle their internal map/carrier consistency via QMap and ElDisjs (see dfdisjs6 39631 / dfdisjs7 39632), while the present construction has an additional external grading axis imposed by the canonical successor map SucMap. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 20-Feb-2026.) (Revised by Peter Mazsa, 25-Feb-2026.)

Theorem	dfpeters2 39663*	Alternate definition of PetErs in fully modular form. This expands the Ers 𝑛 predicate into: (i) a typedness module ( Rels × CoMembErs ), (ii) an equivalence module for the coset relation ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) ∈ EqvRels, (iii) the corresponding quotient-carrier (domain quotient) equation dom ≀ (...) / ≀ (...) = 𝑛. This is the equivalence-side counterpart of the modular decomposition dfpetparts2 39661 on the partition side. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 25-Feb-2026.)
⊢ PetErs = ((( Rels × CoMembErs ) ∩ {⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∣ ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) ∈ EqvRels }) ∩ {⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩ ∣ (dom ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛)) / ≀ (𝑟 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝑛))) = 𝑛})
Theorem	typesafepets 39664	Type-safe pets 39655 scheme. On a membership block-carrier 𝐴 ∈ MembParts, the lifted span (𝑅 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝐴)) yields a generalized partition of 𝐴 iff its coset relation yields an equivalence relation on the same carrier 𝐴. This is the type-safe replacement for the earlier broad pets 39655: it explicitly restricts to carriers where 𝐴 is already known to be a block-family (by MembParts). That removes the standard type-safety objection ("are you equating a quotient-carrier of blocks with raw witnesses?") by construction. It is the key bridge used to identify the partition-side and equivalence-side pet classes (petseq 39665), in complete parallel with the membership bridge mpets 39645. This theorem is intentionally not the definition of PetParts; it is the bridge used by petseq 39665 after typedness is enforced by the "Pet*" definitions. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 19-Feb-2026.)
⊢ ((𝐴 ∈ MembParts ∧ 𝑅 ∈ 𝑉) → ((𝑅 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝐴)) Parts 𝐴 ↔ ≀ (𝑅 ⋉ (◡ E ↾ 𝐴)) Ers 𝐴))
Theorem	petseq 39665	Generalized partition-equivalence identification. The partition-side scheme PetParts and the equivalence-side scheme PetErs define the same class of spans (pairs ⟨𝑟, 𝑛⟩). This plays the same organizational role for lifted spans that mpets 39645 plays for carriers: mpets 39645 identifies MembParts with CoMembErs at the membership-carrier level, while petseq 39665 identifies the corresponding span-level predicates built from Parts and Ers. Unlike the earlier broad pets 39655, the bridge used here is the type-safe span theorem typesafepets 39664, which restricts to membership block-carriers. Since typedness (𝑟 ∈ Rels and the appropriate carrier condition) is now built directly into PetParts and PetErs, this theorem can be used downstream without repeatedly re-establishing basic typing premises. (Contributed by Peter Mazsa, 19-Feb-2026.)
⊢ PetParts = PetErs
Theorem	pets2eq 39666	Grade-stable generalized partition-equivalence identification. After applying the same grade-stability operator (SucMap ShiftStable) to both sides, the grade-stable pet classes still coincide. Confirms that the grade/tower infrastructure is orthogonal to the partition-vs-equivalence viewpoint: stability is preserved under the PetParts = PetErs identification. This is the level at which we can freely work on whichever side is more convenient (Parts for block discipline, Ers for equivalence reasoning), without changing the stable notion of "pet".

21.28  Mathbox for Norm Megill We are sad to report the passing of Metamath creator and long-time contributor Norm Megill (1950 - 2021). Norm of course was the author of the Metamath proof language, the specification, all of the early tools (and some of the later ones), and the foundational work in logic and set theory for set.mm. His tools, now at https://github.com/metamath/metamath-exe, include a proof verifier, a proof assistant, a proof minimizer, style checking and reformatting, and tools for searching and displaying proofs. One of his key insights was that formal proofs can exist not only to be verified by computers, but also to be read by humans. Both the specification of the proof format (which stores full proofs, as opposed to the proof templates used by most proof assistants) and the generated web display of Metamath proofs, one of its distinctive features, contribute to this double objective. Metamath innovated both by using a very simple substitution rule (and then using that to build more complicated notions like free and bound variables) and also by taking the axiom schemas found in many theories and taking them to the next level - by making all axioms, theorems and proofs operate in terms of schemas. Not content to create Metamath for his own amusement, he also published it for the world and encouraged the development of a community of people who contributed to it and created their own tools. He was an active participant in the Metamath mailing list and other forums until days before his passing. It is often our custom to supply a quote from someone memorialized in a mathbox entry. And it is difficult to select a quote for someone who has written so much about Metamath over the years. But here is one quote from the Metamath web page which illustrates not just his clear thinking about what Metamath can and cannot do but also his desire to encourage students at all levels: Q: Will Metamath help me learn abstract mathematics? A: Yes, but probably not by itself. In order to follow a proof in an advanced math textbook, you may need to know prerequisites that could take years to learn. Some people find this frustrating. In contrast, Metamath uses a single, simple substitution rule that allows you to follow any proof mechanically. You can actually jump in anywhere and be convinced that the symbol string you see in a proof step is a consequence of the symbol strings in the earlier steps that it references, even if you don't understand what the symbols mean. But this is quite different from understanding the meaning of the math that results. Metamath alone probably will not give you an intuitive feel for abstract math, in the same way it can be hard to grasp a large computer program just by reading its source code, even though you may understand each individual instruction. However, the Bibliographic Cross-Reference lets you compare informal proofs in math textbooks and see all the implicit missing details "left to the reader."
21.28.1  Obsolete schemes ax-c4,c5,c7,c10,c11,c11n,c15,c9,c14,c16 These older axiom schemes are obsolete and should not be used outside of this section. They are proved above as theorems axc4 , sp 2222, axc7 2353, axc10 2420, axc11 2465, axc11n 2461, axc15 2457, axc9 2417, axc14 2498, and axc16 2300.
Axiom	ax-c5 39697	Axiom of Specialization. A universally quantified wff implies the wff without the universal quantifier (i.e., an instance, or special case, of the generalized wff). In other words, if something is true for all 𝑥, then it is true for any specific 𝑥 (that would typically occur as a free variable in the wff substituted for 𝜑). (A free variable is one that does not occur in the scope of a quantifier: 𝑥 and 𝑦 are both free in 𝑥 = 𝑦, but only 𝑥 is free in ∀𝑦𝑥 = 𝑦.) Axiom scheme C5' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). Also appears as Axiom B5 of [Tarski] p. 67 (under his system S2, defined in the last paragraph on p. 77). Note that the converse of this axiom does not hold in general, but a weaker inference form of the converse holds and is expressed as rule ax-gen 1828. Conditional forms of the converse are given by ax-13 2407, ax-c14 39705, ax-c16 39706, and ax-5 1943. Unlike the more general textbook Axiom of Specialization, we cannot choose a variable different from 𝑥 for the special case. In our axiomatization, that requires the assistance of equality axioms, and we deal with it later after we introduce the definition of proper substitution (see stdpc4 2105). An interesting alternate axiomatization uses axc5c711 39732 and ax-c4 39698 in place of ax-c5 39697, ax-4 1842, ax-10 2179, and ax-11 2195. This axiom is obsolete and should no longer be used. It is proved above as Theorem sp 2222. (Contributed by NM, 3-Jan-1993.) Use sp 2222 instead. (New usage is discouraged.)

Axiom scheme C4' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). It is a special case of Lemma 5 of [Monk2] p. 108 and Axiom 5 of [Mendelson] p. 69. This axiom is obsolete and should no longer be used.
