Type	Label	Description
Statement
Theorem	sp 1401	Specialization. Another name for ax-4 1400. (Contributed by NM, 21-May-2008.)
|- ( A. x ph -> ph )
Theorem	ax-12 1402	Rederive the original version of the axiom from ax-i12 1398. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 3-Feb-2015.)
|- ( -. A. z z = x -> ( -. A. z z = y -> ( x = y -> A. z x = y ) ) )
Theorem	ax12or 1403	Another name for ax-i12 1398. (Contributed by NM, 3-Feb-2015.)
|- ( A. z z = x \/ ( A. z z = y \/ A. z ( x = y -> A. z x = y ) ) )
Axiom	ax-13 1404	Axiom of Equality. One of the equality and substitution axioms for a non-logical predicate in our predicate calculus with equality. It substitutes equal variables into the left-hand side of the e. binary predicate. Axiom scheme C12' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). It is a special case of Axiom B8 (p. 75) of system S2 of [Tarski] p. 77. "Non-logical" means that the predicate is not a primitive of predicate calculus proper but instead is an extension to it. "Binary" means that the predicate has two arguments. In a system of predicate calculus with equality, like ours, equality is not usually considered to be a non-logical predicate. In systems of predicate calculus without equality, it typically would be. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)
|- ( x = y -> ( x e. z -> y e. z ) )
Axiom	ax-14 1405	Axiom of Equality. One of the equality and substitution axioms for a non-logical predicate in our predicate calculus with equality. It substitutes equal variables into the right-hand side of the e. binary predicate. Axiom scheme C13' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). It is a special case of Axiom B8 (p. 75) of system S2 of [Tarski] p. 77. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)
|- ( x = y -> ( z e. x -> z e. y ) )
Theorem	hbequid 1406	Bound-variable hypothesis builder for x = x. This theorem tells us that any variable, including x, is effectively not free in x = x, even though x is technically free according to the traditional definition of free variable. (The proof uses only ax-5 1336, ax-8 1395, ax-12 1402, and ax-gen 1338. This shows that this can be proved without ax-9 1424, even though the theorem equid 1589 cannot be. A shorter proof using ax-9 1424 is obtainable from equid 1589 and hbth 1352.) (Contributed by NM, 13-Jan-2011.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 23-Mar-2014.)
|- ( x = x -> A. y x = x )
Theorem	axi12 1407	Proof that ax-i12 1398 follows from ax-bndl 1399. So that we can track which theorems rely on ax-bndl 1399, proofs should reference ax-i12 1398 rather than this theorem. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 17-Aug-2018.) (New usage is discouraged). (Proof modification is discouraged.)
|- ( A. z z = x \/ ( A. z z = y \/ A. z ( x = y -> A. z x = y ) ) )

|- F/ x ph   &    |- F/ x ( ph -> ps )   =>    |- ( ph -> F/ x ps )
1.3.3  Axiom ax-17 - first use of the $d distinct variable statement
Axiom	ax-17 1419*	Axiom to quantify a variable over a formula in which it does not occur. Axiom C5 in [Megill] p. 444 (p. 11 of the preprint). Also appears as Axiom B6 (p. 75) of system S2 of [Tarski] p. 77 and Axiom C5-1 of [Monk2] p. 113. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)

|- ( ph -> F/ x ps )
1.3.4  Introduce Axiom of Existence
Axiom	ax-i9 1423	Axiom of Existence. One of the equality and substitution axioms of predicate calculus with equality. One thing this axiom tells us is that at least one thing exists (although ax-4 1400 and possibly others also tell us that, i.e. they are not valid in the empty domain of a "free logic"). In this form (not requiring that x and y be distinct) it was used in an axiom system of Tarski (see Axiom B7' in footnote 1 of [KalishMontague] p. 81.) Another name for this theorem is a9e 1586, which has additional remarks. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 31-Jan-2015.)
|- E. x x = y
Theorem	ax-9 1424	Derive ax-9 1424 from ax-i9 1423, the modified version for intuitionistic logic. Although ax-9 1424 does hold intuistionistically, in intuitionistic logic it is weaker than ax-i9 1423. (Contributed by NM, 3-Feb-2015.)
|- -. A. x -. x = y
Theorem	equidqe 1425	equid 1589 with some quantification and negation without using ax-4 1400 or ax-17 1419. (Contributed by NM, 13-Jan-2011.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 27-Feb-2014.)
|- -. A. y -. x = x

Theorem	stdpc5 1476	An axiom scheme of standard predicate calculus that emulates Axiom 5 of [Mendelson] p. 69. The hypothesis F/ x ph can be thought of as emulating " x is not free in ph."

This theorem scheme can be proved as a metatheorem of Mendelson's axiom system, even though it is slightly stronger than his Axiom 5. (Contributed by NM, 22-Sep-1993.)

Theorem	exlimiv 1489*	Inference from Theorem 19.23 of [Margaris] p. 90. This inference, along with our many variants is used to implement a metatheorem called "Rule C" that is given in many logic textbooks. See, for example, Rule C in [Mendelson] p. 81, Rule C in [Margaris] p. 40, or Rule C in Hirst and Hirst's A Primer for Logic and Proof p. 59 (PDF p. 65) at http://www.mathsci.appstate.edu/~jlh/primer/hirst.pdf. In informal proofs, the statement "Let C be an element such that..." almost always means an implicit application of Rule C. In essence, Rule C states that if we can prove that some element x exists satisfying a wff, i.e. E. x ph ( x ) where ph ( x ) has x free, then we can use ph ( C ) as a hypothesis for the proof where C is a new (ficticious) constant not appearing previously in the proof, nor in any axioms used, nor in the theorem to be proved. The purpose of Rule C is to get rid of the existential quantifier. We cannot do this in Metamath directly. Instead, we use the original ph (containing x) as an antecedent for the main part of the proof. We eventually arrive at ( ph -> ps ) where ps is the theorem to be proved and does not contain x. Then we apply exlimiv 1489 to arrive at ( E. x ph -> ps ). Finally, we separately prove E. x ph and detach it with modus ponens ax-mp 7 to arrive at the final theorem ps.
