2.2.5  Theorems requiring empty set existence
Theorem	class2set 5302*	The class of elements of 𝐴 "such that 𝐴 is a set" is a set. That class is equal to 𝐴 when 𝐴 is a set (see class2seteq 3664) and to the empty set when 𝐴 is a proper class. (Contributed by NM, 16-Oct-2003.)
⊢ {𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∣ 𝐴 ∈ V} ∈ V
Theorem	0elpw 5303	Every power class contains the empty set. (Contributed by NM, 25-Oct-2007.)

⊢ 𝒫 𝐴 ≠ ∅
Theorem	0nep0 5305	The empty set and its power set are not equal. (Contributed by NM, 23-Dec-1993.)

⊢ (𝐴 ≠ ∅ ↔ ∩ 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∅ = ∅)
Theorem	notzfaus 5310*	In the Separation Scheme zfauscl 5245, we require that 𝑦 not occur in 𝜑 (which can be generalized to "not be free in"). Here we show special cases of 𝐴 and 𝜑 that result in a contradiction if that requirement is not met. (Contributed by NM, 8-Feb-2006.) (Proof shortened by BJ, 18-Nov-2023.)

2.3  ZF Set Theory - add the Axiom of Power Sets
2.3.1  Introduce the Axiom of Power Sets
Axiom	ax-pow 5312*	Axiom of Power Sets. An axiom of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. It states that a set 𝑦 exists that includes the power set of a given set 𝑥 i.e. contains every subset of 𝑥. The variant axpow2 5314 uses explicit subset notation. A version using class notation is pwex 5327. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.)

⊢ ∃𝑦 𝑥 ∈ 𝑦
Theorem	dtruALT2 5317*	Alternate proof of dtru 5393 using ax-pow 5312 instead of ax-pr 5379. See dtruALT 5335 for another proof using ax-pow 5312 instead of ax-pr 5379. (Contributed by NM, 7-Nov-2006.) Avoid ax-13 2377. (Revised by BJ, 31-May-2019.) Avoid ax-12 2185. (Revised by Rohan Ridenour, 9-Oct-2024.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ¬ ∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦
Theorem	dtrucor 5318*	Corollary of dtru 5393. This example illustrates the danger of blindly trusting the standard Deduction Theorem without accounting for free variables: the theorem form of this deduction is not valid, as shown by dtrucor2 5319. (Contributed by NM, 27-Jun-2002.)
⊢ 𝑥 = 𝑦    ⇒   ⊢ 𝑥 ≠ 𝑦
Theorem	dtrucor2 5319	The theorem form of the deduction dtrucor 5318 leads to a contradiction, as mentioned in the "Wrong!" example at mmdeduction.html#bad 5318. Usage of this theorem is discouraged because it depends on ax-13 2377. (Contributed by NM, 20-Oct-2007.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ (𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑥 ≠ 𝑦)    ⇒   ⊢ (𝜑 ∧ ¬ 𝜑)
Theorem	dvdemo1 5320*	Demonstration of a theorem that requires the setvar variables 𝑥 and 𝑦 to be disjoint (but without any other disjointness conditions, and in particular, none on 𝑧). That theorem bundles the theorems (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧 disjoint), often called its "principal instance", and the two "degenerate instances" (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑥 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑦 disjoint) and (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑦 disjoint). Compare with dvdemo2 5321, which has the same principal instance and one common degenerate instance but crucially differs in the other degenerate instance. See https://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmset.html#distinct 5321 for details on the "disjoint variable" mechanism. (The verb "bundle" to express this phenomenon was introduced by Raph Levien.) Note that dvdemo1 5320 is partially bundled, in that the pairs of setvar variables 𝑥, 𝑧 and 𝑦, 𝑧 need not be disjoint, and in spite of that, its proof does not require ax-11 2163 nor ax-13 2377. (Contributed by NM, 1-Dec-2006.) (Revised by BJ, 13-Jan-2024.)
⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥)
Theorem	dvdemo2 5321*	Demonstration of a theorem that requires the setvar variables 𝑥 and 𝑧 to be disjoint (but without any other disjointness conditions, and in particular, none on 𝑦). That theorem bundles the theorems (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧 disjoint), often called its "principal instance", and the two "degenerate instances" (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑥 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑧 disjoint) and (⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑧 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥) with 𝑥, 𝑧 disjoint). Compare with dvdemo1 5320, which has the same principal instance and one common degenerate instance but crucially differs in the other degenerate instance. See https://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmset.html#distinct 5320 for details on the "disjoint variable" mechanism. Note that dvdemo2 5321 is partially bundled, in that the pairs of setvar variables 𝑥, 𝑦 and 𝑦, 𝑧 need not be disjoint, and in spite of that, its proof does not require any of the auxiliary axioms ax-10 2147, ax-11 2163, ax-12 2185, ax-13 2377. (Contributed by NM, 1-Dec-2006.) Avoid ax-13 2377. (Revised by BJ, 13-Jan-2024.)
⊢ ∃𝑥(𝑥 = 𝑦 → 𝑧 ∈ 𝑥)
Theorem	nfnid 5322	A setvar variable is not free from itself. This theorem is not true in a one-element domain, as illustrated by the use of dtruALT2 5317 in its proof. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 8-Oct-2016.)
⊢ ¬ Ⅎ𝑥𝑥
Theorem	nfcvb 5323	The "distinctor" expression ¬ ∀𝑥𝑥 = 𝑦, stating that 𝑥 and 𝑦 are not the same variable, can be written in terms of Ⅎ in the obvious way. This theorem is not true in a one-element domain, because then Ⅎ𝑥𝑦 and ∀𝑥𝑥 = 𝑦 will both be true. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 8-Oct-2016.) Usage of this theorem is discouraged because it depends on ax-13 2377. (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ (Ⅎ𝑥𝑦 ↔ ¬ ∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦)
Theorem	vpwex 5324	Power set axiom: the powerclass of a set is a set. Axiom 4 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 17. (Contributed by NM, 30-Oct-2003.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 25-Jul-2011.) Revised to prove pwexg 5325 from vpwex 5324. (Revised by BJ, 10-Aug-2022.)

⊢ (𝜑 → 𝐴 ∈ 𝑉)    ⇒   ⊢ (𝜑 → 𝒫 𝐴 ∈ V)
Theorem	pwex 5327	Power set axiom expressed in class notation. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ 𝒫 𝐴 ∈ V
Theorem	pwel 5328	Quantitative version of pwexg 5325: the powerset of an element of a class is an element of the double powerclass of the union of that class. Exercise 10 of [Enderton] p. 26. (Contributed by NM, 13-Jan-2007.) Remove use of ax-nul 5253 and ax-pr 5379 and shorten proof. (Revised by BJ, 13-Apr-2024.)
⊢ (𝐴 ∈ 𝐵 → 𝒫 𝐴 ∈ 𝒫 𝒫 ∪ 𝐵)
Theorem	abssexg 5329*	Existence of a class of subsets. (Contributed by NM, 15-Jul-2006.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 25-Jul-2011.)
⊢ (𝐴 ∈ 𝑉 → {𝑥 ∣ (𝑥 ⊆ 𝐴 ∧ 𝜑)} ∈ V)
Theorem	snexALT 5330	Alternate proof of snex 5385 using Power Set (ax-pow 5312) instead of Pairing (ax-pr 5379). Unlike in the proof of zfpair 5368, Replacement (ax-rep 5226) is not needed. (Contributed by NM, 7-Aug-1994.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 25-Jul-2011.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ {𝐴} ∈ V
Theorem	p0ex 5331	The power set of the empty set (the ordinal 1) is a set. See also p0exALT 5332. (Contributed by NM, 23-Dec-1993.)
⊢ {∅} ∈ V
Theorem	p0exALT 5332	Alternate proof of p0ex 5331 which is quite different and longer if snexALT 5330 is expanded. (Contributed by NM, 23-Dec-1993.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ {∅} ∈ V
Theorem	pp0ex 5333	The power set of the power set of the empty set (the ordinal 2) is a set. (Contributed by NM, 24-Jun-1993.)
⊢ {∅, {∅}} ∈ V
Theorem	ord3ex 5334	The ordinal number 3 is a set, proved without the Axiom of Union ax-un 7690. (Contributed by NM, 2-May-2009.)
⊢ {∅, {∅}, {∅, {∅}}} ∈ V
Theorem	dtruALT 5335*	Alternate proof of dtru 5393 which requires more axioms but is shorter and may be easier to understand. Like dtruALT2 5317, it uses ax-pow 5312 rather than ax-pr 5379. Assuming that ZF set theory is consistent, we cannot prove this theorem unless we specify that 𝑥 and 𝑦 be distinct. Specifically, Theorem spcev 3562 requires that 𝑥 must not occur in the subexpression ¬ 𝑦 = {∅} in step 4 nor in the subexpression ¬ 𝑦 = ∅ in step 9. The proof verifier will require that 𝑥 and 𝑦 be in a distinct variable group to ensure this. You can check this by deleting the $d statement in set.mm and rerunning the verifier, which will print a detailed explanation of the distinct variable violation. (Contributed by NM, 15-Jul-1994.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ¬ ∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦
Theorem	axc16b 5336*	This theorem shows that Axiom ax-c16 39262 is redundant in the presence of Theorem dtruALT2 5317, which states simply that at least two things exist. This justifies the remark at mmzfcnd.html#twoness 5317 (which links to this theorem). (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 7-Nov-2006.)
⊢ (∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦 → (𝜑 → ∀𝑥𝜑))
Theorem	eunex 5337	Existential uniqueness implies there is a value for which the wff argument is false. (Contributed by NM, 24-Oct-2010.) (Proof shortened by BJ, 2-Jan-2023.)

Theorem	reusv2 5350*	Two ways to express single-valuedness of a class expression 𝐶(𝑦) that is constant for those 𝑦 ∈ 𝐵 such that 𝜑.

Theorem	zfpair 5368	The Axiom of Pairing of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. Axiom 2 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 15. In some textbooks this is stated as a separate axiom; here we show it is redundant since it can be derived from the other axioms. This theorem should not be referenced by any proof other than axprALT 5369. Instead, use zfpair2 5380 below so that the uses of the Axiom of Pairing can be more easily identified.

By virtue of its definition, an unordered pair remains a set (even though no longer a pair) even when its components are proper classes (see prprc 4726), so we can dispense with hypotheses requiring them to be sets.

Theorem	exel 5390*	There exist two sets, one a member of the other. This theorem looks similar to el 5394, but its meaning is different. It only depends on the axioms ax-mp 5 to ax-4 1811, ax-6 1969, and ax-pr 5379. This theorem does not exclude that these two sets could actually be one single set containing itself. That two different sets exist is proved by exexneq 5391. (Contributed by SN, 23-Dec-2024.)

Theorem	exneq 5392*	Given any set (the "𝑦 " in the statement), there exists a set not equal to it. The same statement without disjoint variable condition is false, since we do not have ∃𝑥¬ 𝑥 = 𝑥. This theorem is proved directly from set theory axioms (no class definitions) and does not depend on ax-ext 2709, ax-sep 5243, or ax-pow 5312 nor auxiliary logical axiom schemes ax-10 2147 to ax-13 2377.
