Theoremmto 167 The rule of modus tollens. The rule says, "if ψ is not true, and φ implies ψ, then ψ must also be not true." Modus tollens is short for "modus tollendo tollens," a Latin phrase that means "the mood that by denying affirms" [Sanford] p. 39. It is also called denying the consequent. Modus tollens is closely related to modus ponens ax-mp 8. (Contributed by NM, 19-Aug-1993.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 11-Sep-2013.)

Theorempeirce 172 Peirce's axiom. This odd-looking theorem is the "difference" between an intuitionistic system of propositional calculus and a classical system and is not accepted by intuitionists. When Peirce's axiom is added to an intuitionistic system, the system becomes equivalent to our classical system ax-1 5 through ax-3 7. A curious fact about this theorem is that it requires ax-3 7 for its proof even though the result has no negation connectives in it. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 9-Oct-2012.)
(((φψ) → φ) → φ)
 
Theoremloolin 173 The Linearity Axiom of the infinite-valued sentential logic (L-infinity) of Lukasiewicz. For a version not using ax-3 7, see loolinALT 95. (Contributed by O'Cat, 12-Aug-2004.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 2-Nov-2012.)

1.2.5  Logical equivalence

The definition df-bi 177 in this section is our first definition, which introduces and defines the biconditional connective . We define a wff of the form (φψ) as an abbreviation for ¬ ((φψ) → ¬ (ψφ)).

Unlike most traditional developments, we have chosen not to have a separate symbol such as "Df." to mean "is defined as." Instead, we will later use the biconditional connective for this purpose (df-or 359 is its first use), as it allows us to use logic to manipulate definitions directly. This greatly simplifies many proofs since it eliminates the need for a separate mechanism for introducing and eliminating definitions.

 
Syntaxwb 176 Extend our wff definition to include the biconditional connective.
wff (φψ)
 
Definitiondf-bi 177 Define the biconditional (logical 'iff').

The definition df-bi 177 in this section is our first definition, which introduces and defines the biconditional connective . We define a wff of the form (φψ) as an abbreviation for ¬ ((φψ) → ¬ (ψφ)).

Unlike most traditional developments, we have chosen not to have a separate symbol such as "Df." to mean "is defined as." Instead, we will later use the biconditional connective for this purpose (df-or 359 is its first use), as it allows us to use logic to manipulate definitions directly. This greatly simplifies many proofs since it eliminates the need for a separate mechanism for introducing and eliminating definitions. Of course, we cannot use this mechanism to define the biconditional itself, since it hasn't been introduced yet. Instead, we use a more general form of definition, described as follows.

In its most general form, a definition is simply an assertion that introduces a new symbol (or a new combination of existing symbols, as in df-3an 936) that is eliminable and does not strengthen the existing language. The latter requirement means that the set of provable statements not containing the new symbol (or new combination) should remain exactly the same after the definition is introduced. Our definition of the biconditional may look unusual compared to most definitions, but it strictly satisfies these requirements.

The justification for our definition is that if we mechanically replace (φψ) (the definiendum i.e. the thing being defined) with ¬ ((φψ) → ¬ (ψφ)) (the definiens i.e. the defining expression) in the definition, the definition becomes the previously proved theorem bijust 175. It is impossible to use df-bi 177 to prove any statement expressed in the original language that can't be proved from the original axioms, because if we simply replace each instance of df-bi 177 in the proof with the corresponding bijust 175 instance, we will end up with a proof from the original axioms.

Note that from Metamath's point of view, a definition is just another axiom - i.e. an assertion we claim to be true - but from our high level point of view, we are not strengthening the language. To indicate this fact, we prefix definition labels with "df-" instead of "ax-". (This prefixing is an informal convention that means nothing to the Metamath proof verifier; it is just a naming convention for human readability.)

After we define the constant true (df-tru 1319) and the constant false (df-fal 1320), we will be able to prove these truth table values: (( ⊤ ↔ ⊤ ) ↔ ⊤ ) (trubitru 1350), (( ⊤ ↔ ⊥ ) ↔ ⊥ ) (trubifal 1351), (( ⊥ ↔ ⊤ ) ↔ ⊥ ) (falbitru 1352), and (( ⊥ ↔ ⊥ ) ↔ ⊤ ) (falbifal 1353).

See dfbi1 184, dfbi2 609, and dfbi3 863 for theorems suggesting typical textbook definitions of , showing that our definition has the properties we expect. Theorem dfbi1 184 is particularly useful if we want to eliminate from an expression to convert it to primitives. Theorem dfbi 610 shows this definition rewritten in an abbreviated form after conjunction is introduced, for easier understanding.

Contrast with (df-or 359), (wi 4), (df-nan 1288), and (df-xor 1305) . In some sense returns true if two truth values are equal; = (df-cleq 2346) returns true if two classes are equal. (Contributed by NM, 5-Aug-1993.)

((φψ) ↔ ¬ ((φψ) → ¬ (ψφ)))
 
Theoremdfbi1gb 185 This proof of dfbi1 184, discovered by Gregory Bush on 8-Mar-2004, has several curious properties. First, it has only 17 steps directly from the axioms and df-bi 177, compared to over 800 steps were the proof of dfbi1 184 expanded into axioms. Second, step 2 demands only the property of "true"; any axiom (or theorem) could be used. It might be thought, therefore, that it is in some sense redundant, but in fact no proof is shorter than this (measured by number of steps). Third, it illustrates how intermediate steps can "blow up" in size even in short proofs. Fourth, the compressed proof is only 182 bytes (or 17 bytes in D-proof notation), but the generated web page is over 200kB with intermediate steps that are essentially incomprehensible to humans (other than Gregory Bush). If there were an obfuscated code contest for proofs, this would be a contender. This "blowing up" and incomprehensibility of the intermediate steps vividly demonstrate the advantages of using many layered intermediate theorems, since each theorem is easier to understand. (Contributed by Gregory Bush, 10-Mar-2004.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
