⊢ (𝐴 ∈ ∪ (𝑅1 “ On) → (TC‘𝐴) ∈ ∪ (𝑅1 “ On))
Theorem	tcrank 9844	This theorem expresses two different facts from the two subset implications in this equality. In the forward direction, it says that the transitive closure has members of every rank below 𝐴. Stated another way, to construct a set at a given rank, you have to climb the entire hierarchy of ordinals below (rank‘𝐴), constructing at least one set at each level in order to move up the ranks. In the reverse direction, it says that every member of (TC‘𝐴) has a rank below the rank of 𝐴, since intuitively it contains only the members of 𝐴 and the members of those and so on, but nothing "bigger" than 𝐴. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 23-Jun-2013.)
⊢ (𝐴 ∈ ∪ (𝑅1 “ On) → (rank‘𝐴) = (rank “ (TC‘𝐴)))
2.6.9  Scott's trick; collection principle; Hilbert's epsilon
Theorem	scottex 9845*	Scott's trick collects all sets that have a certain property and are of the smallest possible rank. This theorem shows that the resulting collection, expressed as in Equation 9.3 of [Jech] p. 72, is a set. (Contributed by NM, 13-Oct-2003.)
⊢ {𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∣ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)} ∈ V
Theorem	scott0 9846*	Scott's trick collects all sets that have a certain property and are of the smallest possible rank. This theorem shows that the resulting collection, expressed as in Equation 9.3 of [Jech] p. 72, contains at least one representative with the property, if there is one. In other words, the collection is empty iff no set has the property (i.e. 𝐴 is empty). (Contributed by NM, 15-Oct-2003.)
⊢ (𝐴 = ∅ ↔ {𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∣ ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)} = ∅)
Theorem	scottexs 9847*	Theorem scheme version of scottex 9845. The collection of all 𝑥 of minimum rank such that 𝜑(𝑥) is true, is a set. (Contributed by NM, 13-Oct-2003.)

Theorem	scott0s 9848*	Theorem scheme version of scott0 9846. The collection of all 𝑥 of minimum rank such that 𝜑(𝑥) is true, is not empty iff there is an 𝑥 such that 𝜑(𝑥) holds. (Contributed by NM, 13-Oct-2003.)
⊢ (∃𝑥𝜑 ↔ {𝑥 ∣ (𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦([𝑦 / 𝑥]𝜑 → (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)))} ≠ ∅)
Theorem	cplem1 9849*	Lemma for the Collection Principle cp 9851. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2003.)
⊢ 𝐶 = {𝑦 ∈ 𝐵 ∣ ∀𝑧 ∈ 𝐵 (rank‘𝑦) ⊆ (rank‘𝑧)}    &   ⊢ 𝐷 = ∪ 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 𝐶    ⇒   ⊢ ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 (𝐵 ≠ ∅ → (𝐵 ∩ 𝐷) ≠ ∅)
Theorem	cplem2 9850*	Lemma for the Collection Principle cp 9851. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2003.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 (𝐵 ≠ ∅ → (𝐵 ∩ 𝑦) ≠ ∅)
Theorem	cp 9851*	Collection Principle. This remarkable theorem scheme is in effect a very strong generalization of the Axiom of Replacement. The proof makes use of Scott's trick scottex 9845 that collapses a proper class into a set of minimum rank. The wff 𝜑 can be thought of as 𝜑(𝑥, 𝑦). Scheme "Collection Principle" of [Jech] p. 72. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2003.)
⊢ ∃𝑤∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 (∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑤 𝜑)
Theorem	bnd 9852*	A very strong generalization of the Axiom of Replacement (compare zfrep6 7936), derived from the Collection Principle cp 9851. Its strength lies in the rather profound fact that 𝜑(𝑥, 𝑦) does not have to be a "function-like" wff, as it does in the standard Axiom of Replacement. This theorem is sometimes called the Boundedness Axiom. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2004.)
⊢ (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∃𝑦𝜑 → ∃𝑤∀𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑤 𝜑)
Theorem	bnd2 9853*	A variant of the Boundedness Axiom bnd 9852 that picks a subset 𝑧 out of a possibly proper class 𝐵 in which a property is true. (Contributed by NM, 4-Feb-2004.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ (∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝐵 𝜑 → ∃𝑧(𝑧 ⊆ 𝐵 ∧ ∀𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∃𝑦 ∈ 𝑧 𝜑))
Theorem	kardex 9854*	The collection of all sets equinumerous to a set 𝐴 and having the least possible rank is a set. This is the part of the justification of the definition of kard of [Enderton] p. 222. (Contributed by NM, 14-Dec-2003.)
⊢ {𝑥 ∣ (𝑥 ≈ 𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑦(𝑦 ≈ 𝐴 → (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)))} ∈ V
Theorem	karden 9855*	If we allow the Axiom of Regularity, we can avoid the Axiom of Choice by defining the cardinal number of a set as the set of all sets equinumerous to it and having the least possible rank. This theorem proves the equinumerosity relationship for this definition (compare carden 10511). The hypotheses correspond to the definition of kard of [Enderton] p. 222 (which we don't define separately since currently we do not use it elsewhere). This theorem along with kardex 9854 justify the definition of kard. The restriction to the least rank prevents the proper class that would result from {𝑥 ∣ 𝑥 ≈ 𝐴}. (Contributed by NM, 18-Dec-2003.) (Revised by AV, 12-Jul-2022.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝐶 = {𝑥 ∣ (𝑥 ≈ 𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑦(𝑦 ≈ 𝐴 → (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)))}    &   ⊢ 𝐷 = {𝑥 ∣ (𝑥 ≈ 𝐵 ∧ ∀𝑦(𝑦 ≈ 𝐵 → (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)))}    ⇒   ⊢ (𝐶 = 𝐷 ↔ 𝐴 ≈ 𝐵)
Theorem	htalem 9856*	Lemma for defining an emulation of Hilbert's epsilon. Hilbert's epsilon is described at http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/epsilon-calculus/. This theorem is equivalent to Hilbert's "transfinite axiom", described on that page, with the additional 𝑅 We 𝐴 antecedent. The element 𝐵 is the epsilon that the theorem emulates. (Contributed by NM, 11-Mar-2004.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jun-2015.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝐵 = (℩𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝐴 ¬ 𝑦𝑅𝑥)    ⇒   ⊢ ((𝑅 We 𝐴 ∧ 𝐴 ≠ ∅) → 𝐵 ∈ 𝐴)
Theorem	hta 9857*	A ZFC emulation of Hilbert's transfinite axiom. The set 𝐵 has the properties of Hilbert's epsilon, except that it also depends on a well-ordering 𝑅. This theorem arose from discussions with Raph Levien on 5-Mar-2004 about translating the HOL proof language, which uses Hilbert's epsilon. See https://us.metamath.org/downloads/choice.txt (copy of obsolete link http://ghilbert.org/choice.txt) and https://us.metamath.org/downloads/megillaward2005he.pdf. Hilbert's epsilon is described at http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/epsilon-calculus/. This theorem differs from Hilbert's transfinite axiom described on that page in that it requires 𝑅 We 𝐴 as an antecedent. Class 𝐴 collects the sets of the least rank for which 𝜑(𝑥) is true. Class 𝐵, which emulates Hilbert's epsilon, is the minimum element in a well-ordering 𝑅 on 𝐴. If a well-ordering 𝑅 on 𝐴 can be expressed in a closed form, as might be the case if we are working with say natural numbers, we can eliminate the antecedent with modus ponens, giving us the exact equivalent of Hilbert's transfinite axiom. Otherwise, we replace 𝑅 with a dummy setvar variable, say 𝑤, and attach 𝑤 We 𝐴 as an antecedent in each step of the ZFC version of the HOL proof until the epsilon is eliminated. At that point, 𝐵 (which will have 𝑤 as a free variable) will no longer be present, and we can eliminate 𝑤 We 𝐴 by applying exlimiv 1930 and weth 10455, using scottexs 9847 to establish the existence of 𝐴. For a version of this theorem scheme using class (meta)variables instead of wff (meta)variables, see htalem 9856. (Contributed by NM, 11-Mar-2004.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jun-2015.)
⊢ 𝐴 = {𝑥 ∣ (𝜑 ∧ ∀𝑦([𝑦 / 𝑥]𝜑 → (rank‘𝑥) ⊆ (rank‘𝑦)))}    &   ⊢ 𝐵 = (℩𝑧 ∈ 𝐴 ∀𝑤 ∈ 𝐴 ¬ 𝑤𝑅𝑧)    ⇒   ⊢ (𝑅 We 𝐴 → (𝜑 → [𝐵 / 𝑥]𝜑))

Definition	df-card 9899*	Define the cardinal number function. The cardinal number of a set is the least ordinal number equinumerous to it. In other words, it is the "size" of the set. Definition of [Enderton] p. 197. See cardval 10506 for its value and cardval2 9951 for a simpler version of its value. The principal theorem relating cardinality to equinumerosity is carden 10511. Our notation is from Enderton. Other textbooks often use a double bar over the set to express this function. (Contributed by NM, 21-Oct-2003.)
⊢ card = (𝑥 ∈ V ↦ ∩ {𝑦 ∈ On ∣ 𝑦 ≈ 𝑥})
Definition	df-aleph 9900	Define the aleph function. Our definition expresses Definition 12 of [Suppes] p. 229 in a closed form, from which we derive the recursive definition as Theorems aleph0 10026, alephsuc 10028, and alephlim 10027. The aleph function provides a one-to-one, onto mapping from the ordinal numbers to the infinite cardinal numbers. Roughly, any aleph is the smallest infinite cardinal number whose size is strictly greater than any aleph before it. (Contributed by NM, 21-Oct-2003.)
