Type	Label	Description
Statement
Theorem	axrep2 4701*	Axiom of Replacement expressed with the fewest number of different variables and without any restrictions on 𝜑. (Contributed by NM, 15-Aug-2003.)
⊢ ∃𝑥(∃𝑦∀𝑧(𝜑 → 𝑧 = 𝑦) → ∀𝑧(𝑧 ∈ 𝑥 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ∧ ∀𝑦𝜑)))
Theorem	axrep3 4702*	Axiom of Replacement slightly strengthened from axrep2 4701; 𝑤 may occur free in 𝜑. (Contributed by NM, 2-Jan-1997.)
⊢ ∃𝑥(∃𝑦∀𝑧(𝜑 → 𝑧 = 𝑦) → ∀𝑧(𝑧 ∈ 𝑥 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑤 ∧ ∀𝑦𝜑)))
Theorem	axrep4 4703*	A more traditional version of the Axiom of Replacement. (Contributed by NM, 14-Aug-1994.)
⊢ Ⅎ𝑧𝜑    ⇒   ⊢ (∀𝑥∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝜑 → 𝑦 = 𝑧) → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝑦 ∈ 𝑧 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑤 ∧ 𝜑)))
Theorem	axrep5 4704*	Axiom of Replacement (similar to Axiom Rep of [BellMachover] p. 463). The antecedent tells us 𝜑 is analogous to a "function" from 𝑥 to 𝑦 (although it is not really a function since it is a wff and not a class). In the consequent we postulate the existence of a set 𝑧 that corresponds to the "image" of 𝜑 restricted to some other set 𝑤. The hypothesis says 𝑧 must not be free in 𝜑. (Contributed by NM, 26-Nov-1995.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 14-Oct-2016.)
⊢ Ⅎ𝑧𝜑    ⇒   ⊢ (∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑤 → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝜑 → 𝑦 = 𝑧)) → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝑦 ∈ 𝑧 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑤 ∧ 𝜑)))
Theorem	zfrepclf 4705*	An inference rule based on the Axiom of Replacement. Typically, 𝜑 defines a function from 𝑥 to 𝑦. (Contributed by NM, 26-Nov-1995.)
⊢ Ⅎ𝑥𝐴    &   ⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ (𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝜑 → 𝑦 = 𝑧))    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝑦 ∈ 𝑧 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	zfrep3cl 4706*	An inference rule based on the Axiom of Replacement. Typically, 𝜑 defines a function from 𝑥 to 𝑦. (Contributed by NM, 26-Nov-1995.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ (𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝜑 → 𝑦 = 𝑧))    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝑦 ∈ 𝑧 ↔ ∃𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	zfrep4 4707*	A version of Replacement using class abstractions. (Contributed by NM, 26-Nov-1995.)
⊢ {𝑥 ∣ 𝜑} ∈ V    &   ⊢ (𝜑 → ∃𝑧∀𝑦(𝜓 → 𝑦 = 𝑧))    ⇒   ⊢ {𝑦 ∣ ∃𝑥(𝜑 ∧ 𝜓)} ∈ V
2.2.2  Derive the Axiom of Separation
Theorem	axsep 4708*	Separation Scheme, which is an axiom scheme of Zermelo's original theory. Scheme Sep of [BellMachover] p. 463. As we show here, it is redundant if we assume Replacement in the form of ax-rep 4699. Some textbooks present Separation as a separate axiom scheme in order to show that much of set theory can be derived without the stronger Replacement. The Separation Scheme is a weak form of Frege's Axiom of Comprehension, conditioning it (with 𝑥 ∈ 𝑧) so that it asserts the existence of a collection only if it is smaller than some other collection 𝑧 that already exists. This prevents Russell's paradox ru 3401. In some texts, this scheme is called "Aussonderung" or the Subset Axiom. The variable 𝑥 can appear free in the wff 𝜑, which in textbooks is often written 𝜑(𝑥). To specify this in the Metamath language, we omit the distinct variable requirement ($d) that 𝑥 not appear in 𝜑. For a version using a class variable, see zfauscl 4711, which requires the Axiom of Extensionality as well as Separation for its derivation. If we omit the requirement that 𝑦 not occur in 𝜑, we can derive a contradiction, as notzfaus 4766 shows (contradicting zfauscl 4711). However, as axsep2 4710 shows, we can eliminate the restriction that 𝑧 not occur in 𝜑. Note: the distinct variable restriction that 𝑧 not occur in 𝜑 is actually redundant in this particular proof, but we keep it since its purpose is to demonstrate the derivation of the exact ax-sep 4709 from ax-rep 4699. This theorem should not be referenced by any proof. Instead, use ax-sep 4709 below so that the uses of the Axiom of Separation can be more easily identified. (Contributed by NM, 11-Sep-2006.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Axiom	ax-sep 4709*	The Axiom of Separation of ZF set theory. See axsep 4708 for more information. It was derived as axsep 4708 above and is therefore redundant, but we state it as a separate axiom here so that its uses can be identified more easily. (Contributed by NM, 11-Sep-2006.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	axsep2 4710*	A less restrictive version of the Separation Scheme axsep 4708, where variables 𝑥 and 𝑧 can both appear free in the wff 𝜑, which can therefore be thought of as 𝜑(𝑥, 𝑧). This version was derived from the more restrictive ax-sep 4709 with no additional set theory axioms. (Contributed by NM, 10-Dec-2006.) (Proof shortened by Mario Carneiro, 17-Nov-2016.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝑧 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	zfauscl 4711*	Separation Scheme (Aussonderung) using a class variable. To derive this from ax-sep 4709, we invoke the Axiom of Extensionality (indirectly via vtocl 3232), which is needed for the justification of class variable notation. If we omit the requirement that 𝑦 not occur in 𝜑, we can derive a contradiction, as notzfaus 4766 shows. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑥(𝑥 ∈ 𝑦 ↔ (𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	bm1.3ii 4712*	Convert implication to equivalence using the Separation Scheme (Aussonderung) ax-sep 4709. Similar to Theorem 1.3ii of [BellMachover] p. 463. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.)
⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦(𝜑 → 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥)    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦(𝑦 ∈ 𝑥 ↔ 𝜑)
Theorem	ax6vsep 4713*	Derive a weakened version of ax-6 1875 ( i.e. ax6v 1876), where 𝑥 and 𝑦 must be distinct, from Separation ax-sep 4709 and Extensionality ax-ext 2590. See ax6 2239 for the derivation of ax-6 1875 from ax6v 1876. (Contributed by NM, 12-Nov-2013.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ¬ ∀𝑥 ¬ 𝑥 = 𝑦
2.2.3  Derive the Null Set Axiom
Theorem	zfnuleu 4714*	Show the uniqueness of the empty set (using the Axiom of Extensionality via bm1.1 2595 to strengthen the hypothesis in the form of axnul 4716). (Contributed by NM, 22-Dec-2007.)
⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥    ⇒   ⊢ ∃!𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥
Theorem	axnulALT 4715*	Alternate proof of axnul 4716, proved directly from ax-rep 4699 using none of the equality axioms ax-7 1922 through ax-c14 33194 provided we accept sp 2041 as an axiom. Replace sp 2041 with the obsolete ax-c5 33186 to see this in 'show traceback'. (Contributed by Jeff Hoffman, 3-Feb-2008.) (Proof shortened by Mario Carneiro, 17-Nov-2016.) (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)
⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥
Theorem	axnul 4716*	The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory: there exists a set with no elements. Axiom of Empty Set of [Enderton] p. 18. In some textbooks, this is presented as a separate axiom; here we show it can be derived from Separation ax-sep 4709. This version of the Null Set Axiom tells us that at least one empty set exists, but does not tell us that it is unique - we need the Axiom of Extensionality to do that (see zfnuleu 4714). This proof, suggested by Jeff Hoffman, uses only ax-4 1728 and ax-gen 1713 from predicate calculus, which are valid in "free logic" i.e. logic holding in an empty domain (see Axiom A5 and Rule R2 of [LeBlanc] p. 277). Thus, our ax-sep 4709 implies the existence of at least one set. Note that Kunen's version of ax-sep 4709 (Axiom 3 of [Kunen] p. 11) does not imply the existence of a set because his is universally closed i.e. prefixed with universal quantifiers to eliminate all free variables. His existence is provided by a separate axiom stating ∃𝑥𝑥 = 𝑥 (Axiom 0 of [Kunen] p. 10). See axnulALT 4715 for a proof directly from ax-rep 4699. This theorem should not be referenced by any proof. Instead, use ax-nul 4717 below so that the uses of the Null Set Axiom can be more easily identified. (Contributed by Jeff Hoffman, 3-Feb-2008.) (Revised by NM, 4-Feb-2008.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥
Axiom	ax-nul 4717*	The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory. It was derived as axnul 4716 above and is therefore redundant, but we state it as a separate axiom here so that its uses can be identified more easily. (Contributed by NM, 7-Aug-2003.)
⊢ ∃𝑥∀𝑦 ¬ 𝑦 ∈ 𝑥
Theorem	0ex 4718	The Null Set Axiom of ZF set theory: the empty set exists. Corollary 5.16 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 20. For the unabbreviated version, see ax-nul 4717. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jun-1993.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 9-Jul-2011.)

Theorem	dtru 4783*	At least two sets exist (or in terms of first-order logic, the universe of discourse has two or more objects). Note that we may not substitute the same variable for both 𝑥 and 𝑦 (as indicated by the distinct variable requirement), for otherwise we would contradict stdpc6 1944. This theorem is proved directly from set theory axioms (no set theory definitions) and does not use ax-ext 2590 or ax-sep 4709. See dtruALT 4826 for a shorter proof using these axioms. The proof makes use of dummy variables 𝑧 and 𝑤 which do not appear in the final theorem. They must be distinct from each other and from 𝑥 and 𝑦. In other words, if we were to substitute 𝑥 for 𝑧 throughout the proof, the proof would fail. (Contributed by NM, 7-Nov-2006.)
⊢ ¬ ∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦
Theorem	axc16b 4784*	This theorem shows that axiom ax-c16 33195 is redundant in the presence of theorem dtru 4783, which states simply that at least two things exist. This justifies the remark at mmzfcnd.html#twoness (which links to this theorem). (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 7-Nov-2006.)
