Theorem nregmodel 45754

Description: The Axiom of Regularity ax-reg 9552 is false in the permutation model defined from 𝐹. Since the other axioms of ZFC hold in all permutation models (permaxext 45742 through permac8prim 45751), we can conclude that Regularity does not follow from those axioms, assuming ZFC is consistent. (If we could prove Regularity from the other axioms, we could prove it in the permutation model and thus obtain a contradiction with this theorem.) Since we also know that Regularity is consistent with the other axioms (wfaxext 45730 through wfac8prim 45739), Regularity is neither provable nor disprovable from the other axioms; i.e., it is independent of them.
