2.2  ZF Set Theory - add the Axiom of Replacement
2.2.1  Introduce the Axiom of Replacement
Axiom	ax-rep 5254*	Axiom of Replacement. An axiom scheme of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. Axiom 5 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 19. It tells us that the image of any set under a function is also a set (see the variant funimaex 6630). Although 𝜑 may be any wff whatsoever, this axiom is useful (i.e. its antecedent is satisfied) when we are given some function and 𝜑 encodes the predicate "the value of the function at 𝑤 is 𝑧". Thus, 𝜑 will ordinarily have free variables 𝑤 and 𝑧- think of it informally as 𝜑(𝑤, 𝑧). We prefix 𝜑 with the quantifier ∀𝑦 in order to "protect" the axiom from any 𝜑 containing 𝑦, thus allowing us to eliminate any restrictions on 𝜑. Another common variant is derived as axrep5 5262, where you can find some further remarks. A slightly more compact version is shown as axrep2 5257. A quite different variant is zfrep6 7958, which if used in place of ax-rep 5254 would also require that the Separation Scheme axsep 5270 be stated as a separate axiom. There is a very strong generalization of Replacement that doesn't demand function-like behavior of 𝜑. Two versions of this generalization are called the Collection Principle cp 9910 and the Boundedness Axiom bnd 9911. Many developments of set theory distinguish the uses of Replacement from uses of the weaker axioms of Separation axsep 5270, Null Set axnul 5280, and Pairing axpr 5402, all of which we derive from Replacement. In order to make it easier to identify the uses of those redundant axioms, we restate them as Axioms ax-sep 5271, ax-nul 5281, and ax-pr 5407 below the theorems that prove them. (Contributed by NM, 23-Dec-1993.)
⊢ (∀𝑤∃𝑦∀𝑧(∀𝑦𝜑 → 𝑧 = 𝑦) → ∃𝑦∀𝑧(𝑧 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ ∃𝑤(𝑤 ∈ 𝑥 ∧ ∀𝑦𝜑)))

Theorem	axrep5 5262*	Axiom of Replacement (similar to Axiom Rep of [BellMachover] p. 463). The antecedent tells us 𝜑 is analogous to a "function" from 𝑥 to 𝑦 (although it is not really a function since it is a wff and not a class). In the consequent we postulate the existence of a set 𝑧 that corresponds to the "image" of 𝜑 restricted to some other set 𝑤. The hypothesis says 𝑧 must not be free in 𝜑.

2.2.2  Derive the Axiom of Separation
Theorem	axsepgfromrep 5269*	A more general version axsepg 5272 of the axiom scheme of separation ax-sep 5271 derived from the axiom scheme of replacement ax-rep 5254 (and first-order logic). The extra generality consists in the absence of a disjoint variable condition on 𝑧, 𝜑 (that is, variable 𝑧 may occur in formula 𝜑). See linked statements for more information. (Contributed by NM, 11-Sep-2006.) Remove dependencies on ax-9 2119 to ax-13 2377. (Revised by SN, 25-Sep-2023.) Use ax-sep 5271 instead (or axsepg 5272 if the extra generality is needed). (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	axsep 5270*	Axiom scheme of separation ax-sep 5271 derived from the axiom scheme of replacement ax-rep 5254. The statement is identical to that of ax-sep 5271, and therefore shows that ax-sep 5271 is redundant when ax-rep 5254 is allowed. See ax-sep 5271 for more information. (Contributed by NM, 11-Sep-2006.) Use ax-sep 5271 instead. (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Axiom	ax-sep 5271*	Axiom scheme of separation. This is an axiom scheme of Zermelo and Zermelo-Fraenkel set theories. It was derived as axsep 5270 above and is therefore redundant in ZF set theory, which contains ax-rep 5254 as an axiom (contrary to Zermelo set theory). We state it as a separate axiom here so that some of its uses can be identified more easily. Some textbooks present the axiom scheme of separation as a separate axiom scheme in order to show that much of set theory can be derived without the stronger axiom scheme of replacement (which is not part of Zermelo set theory). The axiom scheme of separation is a weak form of Frege's axiom scheme of (unrestricted) comprehension, in that it conditions it with the condition 𝑥 ∈ 𝑧, so that it asserts the existence of a collection only if it is smaller than some other collection 𝑧 that already exists. This prevents Russell's paradox ru 3768. In some texts, this scheme is called "Aussonderung" (German for "separation") or "Subset Axiom". The variable 𝑥 can occur in the formula 𝜑, which in textbooks is often written 𝜑(𝑥). To specify this in the Metamath language, we omit the distinct variable condition ($d) that 𝑥 not occur in 𝜑. For a version using a class variable, see zfauscl 5273, which requires the axiom of extensionality as well as the axiom scheme of separation for its derivation. If we omit the requirement that 𝑦 not occur in 𝜑, we can derive a contradiction, as notzfaus 5338 shows (showing the necessity of that condition in zfauscl 5273). Scheme Sep of [BellMachover] p. 463. (Contributed by NM, 11-Sep-2006.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	axsepg 5272*	A more general version of the axiom scheme of separation ax-sep 5271, where variable 𝑧 can also occur (in addition to 𝑥) in formula 𝜑, which can therefore be thought of as 𝜑(𝑥, 𝑧). This version is derived from the more restrictive ax-sep 5271 with no additional set theory axioms. Note that it was also derived from ax-rep 5254 but without ax-sep 5271 as axsepgfromrep 5269. (Contributed by NM, 10-Dec-2006.) (Proof shortened by Mario Carneiro, 17-Nov-2016.) Remove dependency on ax-12 2178 and ax-13 2377 and shorten proof. (Revised by BJ, 6-Oct-2019.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	zfauscl 5273*	Separation Scheme (Aussonderung) using a class variable. To derive this from ax-sep 5271, we invoke the Axiom of Extensionality (indirectly via vtocl 3542), which is needed for the justification of class variable notation. If we omit the requirement that 𝑦 not occur in 𝜑, we can derive a contradiction, as notzfaus 5338 shows. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.)

Theorem	axnulALT 5279*	Alternate proof of axnul 5280, proved from propositional calculus, ax-gen 1795, ax-4 1809, sp 2184, and ax-rep 5254.

⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥
Theorem	axnul 5280*	The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory: there exists a set with no elements. Axiom of Empty Set of [Enderton] p. 18. In some textbooks, this is presented as a separate axiom; here we show it can be derived from Separation ax-sep 5271. This version of the Null Set Axiom tells us that at least one empty set exists, but does not tell us that it is unique - we need the Axiom of Extensionality to do that (see nulmo 2713). This proof, suggested by Jeff Hoffman, uses only ax-4 1809 and ax-gen 1795 from predicate calculus, which are valid in "free logic" i.e. logic holding in an empty domain (see Axiom A5 and Rule R2 of [LeBlanc] p. 277). Thus, our ax-sep 5271 implies the existence of at least one set. Note that Kunen's version of ax-sep 5271 (Axiom 3 of [Kunen] p. 11) does not imply the existence of a set because his is universally closed, i.e., prefixed with universal quantifiers to eliminate all free variables. His existence is provided by a separate axiom stating ∃𝑥𝑥 = 𝑥 (Axiom 0 of [Kunen] p. 10). See axnulALT 5279 for a proof directly from ax-rep 5254. This theorem should not be referenced by any proof. Instead, use ax-nul 5281 below so that the uses of the Null Set Axiom can be more easily identified. (Contributed by Jeff Hoffman, 3-Feb-2008.) (Revised by NM, 4-Feb-2008.)
