Theorem

unisnALT 44915

A set equals the union of its singleton. Theorem 8.2 of [Quine] p. 53. The User manually input on a mmj2 Proof Worksheet, without labels, all steps of unisnALT 44915 except 1, 11, 15, 21, and 30. With execution of the mmj2 unification command, mmj2 could find labels for all steps except for 2, 12, 16, 22, and 31 (and the then non-existing steps 1, 11, 15, 21, and 30). mmj2 could not find reference theorems for those five steps because the hypothesis field of each of these steps was empty and none of those steps unifies with a theorem in set.mm. Each of these five steps is a semantic variation of a theorem in set.mm and is 2-step provable. mmj2 does not have the ability to automatically generate the semantic variation in set.mm of a theorem in a mmj2 Proof Worksheet unless the theorem in the Proof Worksheet is labeled with a 1-hypothesis deduction whose hypothesis is a theorem in set.mm which unifies with the theorem in the Proof Worksheet. The stepprover.c program, which invokes mmj2, has this capability. stepprover.c automatically generated steps 1, 11, 15, 21, and 30, labeled all steps, and generated the RPN proof of unisnALT 44915. Roughly speaking, stepprover.c added to the Proof Worksheet a labeled duplicate step of each non-unifying theorem for each label in a text file, labels.txt, containing a list of labels provided by the User. Upon mmj2 unification, stepprover.c identified a label for each of the five theorems which 2-step proves it. For unisnALT 44915, the label list is a list of all 1-hypothesis propositional calculus deductions in set.mm. stepproverp.c is the same as stepprover.c except that it intermittently pauses during execution, allowing the User to observe the changes to a text file caused by the execution of particular statements of the program.

Theorem

chordthmALT 44922*

The intersecting chords theorem. If points A, B, C, and D lie on a circle (with center Q, say), and the point P is on the interior of the segments AB and CD, then the two products of lengths PA · PB and PC · PD are equal. The Euclidean plane is identified with the complex plane, and the fact that P is on AB and on CD is expressed by the hypothesis that the angles APB and CPD are equal to π. The result is proven by using chordthmlem5 26746 twice to show that PA · PB and PC · PD both equal BQ ² − PQ ² . This is similar to the proof of the theorem given in Euclid's Elements, where it is Proposition III.35. Proven by David Moews on 28-Feb-2017 as chordthm 26747. https://us.metamath.org/other/completeusersproof/chordthmaltvd.html 26747 is a Virtual Deduction User's Proof transcription of chordthm 26747.

Theorem

modelaxrep 44971*

Conditions which guarantee that a class models the Axiom of Replacement ax-rep 5234. Similar to Lemma II.2.4(6) of [Kunen2] p. 111. The first two hypotheses are those in Kunen. The reason for the third hypothesis that our version of Replacement is different from Kunen's (which is zfrep6 7933). If we assumed Regularity, we could eliminate this extra hypothesis, since under Regularity, the empty set is a member of every non-empty transitive class.

Note that, to obtain the relativization of an instance of Replacement to 𝑀, the formula ∀𝑦𝜑 would need to be replaced with ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑀𝜒, where 𝜒 is 𝜑 with all quantifiers relativized to 𝑀. However, we can obtain this by using 𝑦 ∈ 𝑀 ∧ 𝜒 for 𝜑 in this theorem, so it does establish that all instances of Replacement hold in 𝑀. (Contributed by Eric Schmidt, 29-Sep-2025.)

A transitive class that contains ω models the Axiom of Infinity ax-inf2 9594. Lemma II.2.11(7) of [Kunen2] p. 114. Kunen has the additional hypotheses that the Extensionality, Separation, Pairing, and Union axioms are true in 𝑀. This, apparently, is because Kunen's statement of the Axiom of Infinity uses the defined notions ∅ and suc, and these axioms guarantee that these notions are well-defined. When we state the axiom using primitives only, the need for these hypotheses disappears.

21.42.8  The class of well-founded sets is a model for ZFC

Theorem

wfaxext 44983*

The class of well-founded sets models the Axiom of Extensionality ax-ext 2701. Part of Corollary II.2.5 of [Kunen2] p. 112.

This is the first of a series of theorems showing that all the axioms of ZFC hold in the class of well-founded sets, which we here denote by 𝑊. More precisely, for each axiom of ZFC, we obtain a provable statement if we restrict all quantifiers to 𝑊 (including implicit universal quantifiers on free variables).

None of these proofs use the Axiom of Regularity. In particular, the Axiom of Regularity itself is proved to hold in 𝑊 without using Regularity. Further, the Axiom of Choice is used only in the proof that Choice holds in 𝑊. This has the consequence that any theorem of ZF (possibly proved using Regularity) can be proved, without using Regularity, to hold in 𝑊. This gives us a relative consistency result: If ZF without Regularity is consistent, so is ZF itself. Similarly, if ZFC without Regularity is consistent, so is ZFC itself. These consistency results are metatheorems and are part of Theorem II.2.13 of [Kunen2] p. 114.

Theorem

brpermmodel 44993

The membership relation in a permutation model. We use a permutation 𝐹 of the universe to define a relation 𝑅 that serves as the membership relation in our model. The conclusion of this theorem is Definition II.9.1 of [Kunen2] p. 148. All the axioms of ZFC except for Regularity hold in permutation models, and Regularity will be false if 𝐹 is chosen appropriately. Thus, permutation models can be used to show that Regularity does not follow from the other axioms (with the usual proviso that the axioms are consistent). (Contributed by Eric Schmidt, 6-Nov-2025.)
