2.6.5  Transitive closure
Theorem	trcl 9718*	For any set 𝐴, show the properties of its transitive closure 𝐶. Similar to Theorem 9.1 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 73 except that we show an explicit expression for the transitive closure rather than just its existence. See tz9.1 9719 for an abbreviated version showing existence. (Contributed by NM, 14-Sep-2003.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 11-Sep-2015.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝐹 = (rec((𝑧 ∈ V ↦ (𝑧 ∪ ∪ 𝑧)), 𝐴) ↾ ω)    &   ⊢ 𝐶 = ∪ 𝑦 ∈ ω (𝐹‘𝑦)    ⇒   ⊢ (𝐴 ⊆ 𝐶 ∧ Tr 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑥((𝐴 ⊆ 𝑥 ∧ Tr 𝑥) → 𝐶 ⊆ 𝑥))
Theorem	tz9.1 9719*	Every set has a transitive closure (the smallest transitive extension). Theorem 9.1 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 73. See trcl 9718 for an explicit expression for the transitive closure. Apparently open problems are whether this theorem can be proved without the Axiom of Infinity; if not, then whether it implies Infinity; and if not, what is the "property" that Infinity has that the other axioms don't have that is weaker than Infinity itself? (Added 22-Mar-2011) The following article seems to answer the first question, that it can't be proved without Infinity, in the affirmative: Mancini, Antonella and Zambella, Domenico (2001).

class 𝑅1
Syntax	crnk 9753	Extend class definition to include rank function.
class rank
Definition	df-r1 9754	Define the cumulative hierarchy of sets function, using Takeuti and Zaring's notation (𝑅1). Starting with the empty set, this function builds up layers of sets where the next layer is the power set of the previous layer (and the union of previous layers when the argument is a limit ordinal). Using the Axiom of Regularity, we can show that any set whatsoever belongs to one of the layers of this hierarchy (see tz9.13 9781). Our definition expresses Definition 9.9 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 76 in a closed form, from which we derive the recursive definition as Theorems r10 9758, r1suc 9760, and r1lim 9762. Theorem r1val1 9776 shows a recursive definition that works for all values, and Theorems r1val2 9827 and r1val3 9828 show the value expressed in terms of rank. Other notations for this function are R with the argument as a subscript (Equation 3.1 of [BellMachover] p. 477), V with a subscript (Definition of [Enderton] p. 202), M with a subscript (Definition 15.19 of [Monk1] p. 113), the capital Greek letter psi (Definition of [Mendelson] p. 281), and bold-face R (Definition 2.1 of [Kunen] p. 95). (Contributed by NM, 2-Sep-2003.)
⊢ 𝑅1 = rec((𝑥 ∈ V ↦ 𝒫 𝑥), ∅)
Definition	df-rank 9755*	Define the rank function. See rankval 9806, rankval2 9808, rankval3 9830, or rankval4 9857 its value. The rank is a kind of "inverse" of the cumulative hierarchy of sets function 𝑅1: given a set, it returns an ordinal number telling us the smallest layer of the hierarchy to which the set belongs. Based on Definition 9.14 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 79. Theorem rankid 9823 illustrates the "inverse" concept. Another nice theorem showing the relationship is rankr1a 9826. (Contributed by NM, 11-Oct-2003.)
