Definition df-ap 7366

Description: Define complex apartness. Definition 6.1 of [Geuvers], p. 17.

Two numbers are considered apart if it is possible to separate them. One common usage is that we can divide by a number if it is apart from zero (see for example recclap 7440 which says that a number apart from zero has a reciprocal).

The defining characteristics of an apartness are irreflexivity (apirr 7389), symmetry (apsym 7390), and cotransitivity (apcotr 7391). Apartness implies negated equality, as seen at apne 7407, and the converse would also follow if we assumed excluded middle.

In addition, apartness of complex numbers is tight, which means that two numbers which are not apart are equal (apti 7406).
