Mathematics is a science with a structure that achieved enormous dimensions in the course of time. This huge stronghold has only a small set theoretic foundation and its firmness rests upon simple predicate calculus mortar. In principle the assembly could be comprehended by any mathematician. From every newest turret of mathematical cognition each path of logical dependency could be followed all the way down to its set theoretic roots.

\par
This document wants to provide some help to accomplish this task. What we aim at is to get an understandable
presentation of the set theoretic roots. But despite all comprehensibility it is possible to drill very deep into details. Even into the level of a formal proof. For that purpose this document exists in different detail levels. The original source of this document is written in a formal language. So it is possible to prove the propositions automatically with a computer program.

\par
Lets start by the roots\ldots

This document is not finished and is updated from time to time. Especially at the locations marked with {\glqq+++\grqq} additions or changes will be made.

\chapter*{Introduction\label{ch:introduction}} \label{chapter1} \hypertarget{chapter1}{}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Introduction\label{ch:introduction}}

After mathematical logic has provided us with the methods of reasoning we start with a very basic theory. Set theory deals with objects and their collections. This theory is interesting for two reasons. First, nearly all mathematical fields use it. Second, every mathematical statement or proof could be cast into formulas within set theory. Number theory, algebra, analysis an all other theories could be constructed within.

\par          
This document contains the mathematical foundation of set theory. Goal is the presentation of elementary results which are needed in other mathematical disciplines. After the basics the {\emph boolean algebra of classes} is in focus. Next are some thoughts about \emph{relations} and \emph{functions}. An importent achievement is the definition of the \emph{natural~ numbers} and their fullfilment of the \emph{Peano axioms}. Also the concept of \emph{recursion} is discussed.

\par
Although the presentation is axiomatic the results shall match the mathematical usage. Therefore the set theoretic axiom system of \emph{A.~P.~Morse} and \emph{J.~L.~Kelley} (MK\index{MK}) was choosen.

%% end of chapter Introduction\label{ch:introduction}

\chapter{Basics} \label{chapter2} \hypertarget{chapter2}{}

In this chapter we start with the very basic axioms and definitions of set theory. We shall make no attempt to introduce a formal language\footnote{Despite of this, in the orginal text of this document the formulas of axioms, definitions and propositions are written in a formal language. The original text is a XML file with a syntax defined by the XSD \url{http://www.qedeq.org/current/xml/qedeq.xsd}.} but shall be content with the common logical operators. To be more precise: precondition is a first-order predicate calculus with identity.

\par\index{Cantor}\index{set!definition}
\emph{G.~Cantor}, who is considered the founder of set theory, gave in a publication in 1895 a description of the term \emph{set}.

\begin{quote}
 By a ``set'' we are to understand any collection into a whole $M$ of definite and separate objects $m$ of our intuition or our thought. These objects are called the ``elements'' of $M$.
\end{quote}

\par
This collection can be specified by giving a \emph{condition for memberschip}. Around 1900 various paradoxes in this naive set theory were discovered. These paradoxes base on giving tricky conditions for membership.

\par
There exist different ways out of those contradictions. In this text we don't restrict the condition for membership but we call the result a \emph{class}. Additional axioms allow us to call certain classes sets again. All sets are classes, but not all classes are sets. Sets are classes which are themselves members of classes, whilst a class which is not a set is a class which is not a member of any class.

\section{Classes and Sets} \label{chapter2_section0} \hypertarget{chapter2_section0}{}
Although we want to speak about \emph{sets}\index{set} at the very beginning we have \emph{classes}\index{classes}. No formal definition of a class will be given. Informally, a class is a collection of objects, the involved objects are called the \emph{elements}\index{element} or \emph{members}\index{member} of the class. 
Sets will be construed as a special kind of class.

\par
The following definitions and axioms are due to a strengthened version of \emph{von~Neumann-Bernays-G{\"o}del's} set theory (\emph{NBG}\index{NBG}). This version is called \emph{MK}\index{MK} which is short for \emph{Morse-Kelley}.

\par
The theory of sets introduced here has initial objects, called \emph{classes}. Furthermore the only predefined symbol is for a binary relation called \emph{membership}.

\begin{idefn}[Membership Operator]
\label{definition:in} \hypertarget{definition:in}{}
$$x \in y$$

\end{idefn}

We also say $x$ \emph{is element of} $y$, $x$ \emph{belongs to} $y$, $x$ \emph{is a member of} $y$, $x$ \emph{is in} $y$.
Beside identity this is the only predicate we start with. All other will be defined.\footnote{One could also define the identity predicate within the set theory, but then another axiom is needed and the theory presentation is not so smooth for technical reasons (derivation of the equality axioms).} Also no function constants are initially given.


\par
Although we simply can negate the membership predicate we also want to define a shorthand notation for it.

\begin{defn}[Non Membership Operator]
\label{definition:notIn} \hypertarget{definition:notIn}{}
$$x \notin y\ :\leftrightarrow \ \neg x \in y$$

\end{defn}




\par
Our first axiom states that, for any classes $x$ and $y$, if the membership of $x$ and $y$ are the same, then $x$ and $y$ are the same.\footnote{If identity were not part of our underlying logic, then we should need to take this as a definition of identity.}

\begin{ax}[Extensionality\index{axiom!of extensionality}]
\label{axiom:extensionality} \hypertarget{axiom:extensionality}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\forall z\ (z \in x\ \leftrightarrow \ z \in y)\ \rightarrow \ x \ =  \ y$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}

The classes $x$ and $y$ may be defined in entirely different ways, for example:
\par
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{rcX}
  $x$ & = & class of all nonnegative integers, \\
  $y$ & = & class of all integers, that can be written as sum of four squares,
\end{tabularx}
\par
but if they have the same members, they are the same class.


\par
Now we specify \emph{sets}.

\begin{defn}[Set\index{set!definition}]
\label{definition:isSet} \hypertarget{definition:isSet}{}
$$\mathfrak{M}(x)\ :\leftrightarrow \ \exists y\ x \in y$$

\end{defn}

So sets are nothing else than special classes. A class is a set iff it is a member of any class.


\par
As a consequence of the axiom of extensionality we have the following.\footnote{The quantification over $z$ is restricted to sets.}

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:extensionalitySetRestricted} \hypertarget{theorem:extensionalitySetRestricted}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\forall \ \mathfrak{M}(z)\ \ (z \in x\ \leftrightarrow \ z \in y)\ \rightarrow \ x \ =  \ y$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
Assume $\forall \ \mathfrak{M}(z) \ ( z \in x \ \leftrightarrow \ z \in y)$. Let $z$ be an arbitrary class. If $z \in x$ then $z$ is a set by definition~\ref{definition:isSet}, and hence by the assumption, $z \in y$. similarly $z \in y \ \rightarrow \ z \in x$. Since $z$ is arbitrary, it follows that $\forall z \ (z \in x \ \leftrightarrow \ z \in y)$. Thus by    the axiom of extensionality~\ref{axiom:extensionality}, $x = y$.
\end{proof}




\par
We can also reverse the implication in the axiom of extensionality.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:extensonalityEquivalence} \hypertarget{theorem:extensonalityEquivalence}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $x \ =  \ y\ \leftrightarrow \ \forall z\ (z \in x\ \leftrightarrow \ z \in y)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
This a simple consequence of the second identity axiom.
\end{proof}




\par
Our next set theoretic axiom makes it simple to create new classes. A class could be characterized by a predicate calculus formula.

\begin{ax}[Comprehension]
\label{axiom:comprehension} \hypertarget{axiom:comprehension}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\exists x\ \forall y\ (y \in x\ \leftrightarrow \ (\mathfrak{M}(y)\ \land \ \phi(y)))$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}

\index{NBG}By a small modification of the above axiom we could get a \emph{NBG} axiom system of set theory due to \emph{John von Neumann}, \emph{Isaak Bernays} and \emph{Kurt G{\"o}del}.\index{predicative}\index{Formula, predicative}
For that purpose we call a formula \emph{predicative}, if all of its bound subject variables are restricted to sets.
Therefore predicative formulas formalize `set properties'.\footnote{A little bit more formal: within a predicative formula all quantifier variables run over sets: $\forall \ \mathfrak{M}(x) \ \exists \ \mathfrak{M}(y) \ldots$}
So if we postulate $\phi$ to be predicative we achieve a NBG system together with the following axioms.


\par
By the comprehension axiom and the axiom of extensionality a relationship between a formula $\phi(y)$ and the class defined by this formula is described. The comprehension axiom proposes the existence of at least one class, where the proposition $\mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)$ holds for all of its elements. The axiom of extensionality and the identity axioms make sure, that there is maximal one class of this kind: two classes with the same elements are equal in the sense of replacement in all appropriate propositions. In other words: there is one and only one such class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:comprehension} \hypertarget{theorem:comprehension}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\exists! x\ \forall y\ (x \in y\ \leftrightarrow \ (\mathfrak{M}(y)\ \land \ \phi(y)))$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
We must show:
$$
\begin{array}{rl}
\exists x                      & \forall y \ (y \in x \leftrightarrow  \ \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)) \\
\land \ \forall u \ \forall v  & (\forall y \ (y \in u \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)) \ \land  \ \forall y \ ( y \in v \leftrightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y))) \\
       & \qquad \rightarrow u = v)
\end{array}
$$
Let $u$ and $v$ be arbitrary. Furthermore let us assume:

\par
$\forall y \ (y \in u \leftrightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)) \land \ \forall y \ ( y \in v \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y)
\land \phi(y)))$

\par
Now with \hyperref{http://www.qedeq.org/current/doc/math/qedeq_logic_v1.pdf}{}{allandpp}{allandpp}: $\forall y \ ((y \in u \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)) \land (y \in v \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)))$

\par
With \hyperref{http://www.qedeq.org/current/doc/math/qedeq_logic_v1.pdf}{}{andequi}{andequi} we derive: $\forall y \ ((y \in u \leftrightarrow y \in v ))$. And with Proposition~\ref{theorem:extensonalityEquivalence} follows $u = v$. So we have shown:

\par
$\forall u \ \forall v \ (\forall y \ (y \in u \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y)) \land \ \forall y \ (y \in v \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y))) \rightarrow u = v)$

\par
Together with axiom~\ref{axiom:comprehension} we get the proposition.
\end{proof}




\par
Starting with \ref{theorem:comprehension} we can extend the syntax and provide a new abbreviation.

\begin{rul}[Class definition]
\label{rule:classDefinition} \hypertarget{rule:classDefinition}{}
For every formula $\alpha(x)$ we define the term expression $\{ x \ | \ \alpha(x)\}$ by
$$
  \exists y \ (y = \{x \ | \ \alpha(x) \} \ \land \ \forall x \ x \in y \ \leftrightarrow \mathfrak{M}(x) \ \land \alpha(x))
$$

\par
The free variables from $\{ x \ | \ \alpha(x)\}$ are the free variables from $\alpha(x)$ without $\{ x \}$. The bound variables correspond to the bound variables of $\alpha(x)$. All deduction rules are accordingly extended.
\end{rul}
Based on: 
 \ref{theorem:comprehension}

In particular the substitution rules must be adapted.\footnote{Because now a term can have bound subject variables. Luckily we formulated the substitution rules with this extension already in our mind, so we have nothing to do.} This is a \emph{conservative} extension of our (not so) formal language. This means that no new mathematical content can be derived. It is just convenient to have an elegant new notation.\footnote{
A conservative extension defined by the following.
Let $\mathfrak{L}$ be a language and $\mathfrak{L'}$ an extension of $\mathfrak{L}$. Because $\mathfrak{L'} \supset \mathfrak{L}$ it follows $\mbox{Formula}_\mathfrak{L'} \supset \mbox{Formula}_\mathfrak{L}$. If now for every set of formulas $\Gamma \subseteq \mbox{Formula}_\mathfrak{L}$ and each formula $\alpha \in \mbox{Formula}_\mathfrak{L}$ this proposition holds: $\Gamma \vdash_\mathfrak{L'} \alpha \ \Rightarrow \ \Gamma \vdash_\mathfrak{L} \alpha$, then $\mathfrak{L'}$ is called a \emph{conservative} extension of $\mathfrak{L}$.} 


In the following this new notation is used.


\par
This new notation can be easily transformed in the old syntax. Using the new term type with the initial predicates can be expressed as follows.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setNotation} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{0.9\linewidth}l}}
\centering $y \in \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} \ \leftrightarrow \ (\mathfrak{M}(y)\ \land \ \phi(y))$ & \label{theorem:setNotation:a} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation:a}{} \mbox{\emph{(a)}} \\
\centering $y \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} \ \leftrightarrow \ \forall z\ (z \in y\ \leftrightarrow \ z \in \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} )$ & \label{theorem:setNotation:b} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation:b}{} \mbox{\emph{(b)}} \\
\centering $\{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \}  \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \psi(x) \} \ \leftrightarrow \ \forall z\ (z \in \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} \ \leftrightarrow \ z \in \{ x \ | \ \psi(x) \} )$ & \label{theorem:setNotation:c} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation:c}{} \mbox{\emph{(c)}} \\
\centering $\{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \}  \in \{ x \ | \ \psi(x) \} \ \leftrightarrow \ \forall u\ \forall v\ ((u \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} \ \land \ v \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \psi(x) \} )\ \rightarrow \ u \in v)$ & \label{theorem:setNotation:d} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation:d}{} \mbox{\emph{(d)}} \\
\centering $\{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \}  \in y\ \leftrightarrow \ \forall u\ (u \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \phi(x) \} \ \rightarrow \ u \in y)$ & \label{theorem:setNotation:e} \hypertarget{theorem:setNotation:e}{} \mbox{\emph{(e)}} 
\end{longtable}
+++ if the formula would be rendered correctly it should look like this: \\
\begin{align}
y \in \{ x~|~\phi(x) \} & \leftrightarrow  \mathfrak{M}(y) \land \phi(y) \tag{a} \\
y = \{ x~|~ \phi(x) \} & \leftrightarrow  \forall z \ (z \in y \leftrightarrow z \in \{ x~|~\phi(x) \}) \tag{b} \\
\{ x~|~\phi(x) \} = \{ x~|~\psi(x) \} & \leftrightarrow \forall z \ (z \in \{ x~|~\phi(x) \} \tag{c} \\
\begin{split}
  & \qquad \leftrightarrow z \in \{x~|~\psi(x) \}) \nonumber \\
\{ x~|~\phi(x) \} \in \{ x~|~\psi(x) \} & \leftrightarrow  \forall u \ \forall
v \ ((u  = \{ x~|~\phi(x) \} \\
  & \qquad \land \ v = \{ x~|~\psi(x) \}) \rightarrow u \in v) 
\end{split} \tag{d} \\
\{ x~|~\phi(x) \} \in y & \leftrightarrow  \forall u \ (u  = \{ x~|~\phi(x) \}  \rightarrow u \in y) \tag{e} 
\end{align}
\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
+++ missing.
\end{proof}

Therefore the new syntax can be eliminated by successive applying the above theorems.


\par
Because the new notation fixes a term completely the following must be true.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setDefinitionUnique} \hypertarget{theorem:setDefinitionUnique}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\exists! x\ x \ =  \ \{ y \ | \ \phi(y) \} $
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
The equivalence of properties enables us to conclude the identy of the associated classes.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:propositionEqualImplClassEqual} \hypertarget{theorem:propositionEqualImplClassEqual}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\forall x\ (\phi(x)\ \leftrightarrow \ \psi(x))\ \rightarrow \ \{ y \ | \ \phi(y) \}  \ =  \ \{ y \ | \ \psi(y) \} $
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}

We remark that the reverse implication is false.


\par
Every class can be described by a property: beeing a member of the class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:classDescriptionPossible} \hypertarget{theorem:classDescriptionPossible}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $x \ =  \ \{ y \ | \ y \in x \} $
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\section{Special Classes} \label{chapter2_section1} \hypertarget{chapter2_section1}{}
In this section we define our first classes.

\par
Russells class can now be simply defined.

\begin{defn}[Russell Class\index{Russell!class of}\index{class!Russell}]
\label{definition:RussellClass} \hypertarget{definition:RussellClass}{}
$$\mathfrak{Ru}\ := \ \{ x \ | \ x \notin x \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
The Russell class is a \emph{proper}\index{proper}\index{class!proper} class. This means it is no set.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:RussellClassIsClass} \hypertarget{theorem:RussellClassIsClass}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\neg \mathfrak{M}(\mathfrak{Ru})$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
The \emph{universal class} should contain everything.

\begin{defn}[Universal Class\index{class!universal}\index{universal class}]
\label{definition:universalClass} \hypertarget{definition:universalClass}{}
$$\mathfrak{V}\ := \ \{ x \ | \ x \ =  \ x \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
At least the universal class contains all sets.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:universalClassContainsAllSets} \hypertarget{theorem:universalClassContainsAllSets}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{V} \ =  \ \{ x \ | \ \mathfrak{M}(x) \} $
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Beeing in the universial class is therefore the same as beeing a set.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:isInUniversalClass} \hypertarget{theorem:isInUniversalClass}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $x \in \mathfrak{V}\ \leftrightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(x)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Analogous we define the \emph{empty class}. Later on we will learn that the empty class
is a set. To achieve this resullt we lack some other set axioms. Nevertheless we might already call this class \emph{empty set} sometime.

\begin{defn}[Empty Class\index{empty class}\index{empty set}\index{class!empty}\index{set!empty}]
\label{definition:emptySet} \hypertarget{definition:emptySet}{}
$$\emptyset\ := \ \{ x \ | \ x \ \neq  \ x \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
No class is element of the empty class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:noClassIsMemberOfEmptySet} \hypertarget{theorem:noClassIsMemberOfEmptySet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\forall z\ z \notin \emptyset$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
A class with no elements is the empty class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:noClassIsMemberIsEmptySet} \hypertarget{theorem:noClassIsMemberIsEmptySet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}

\end{longtable}

\end{prop}

\chapter{Boolean Algebra of Classes\index{Boolean algebra!of classes}} \label{chapter3} \hypertarget{chapter3}{}

Now the elementary class operations and their properties are described.

A \emph{boolean algebra} is an algebraic structure that abstracts from the
logical operators \emph{and}, \emph{or}, \emph{not} and their set theoretic
connectives \emph{intersection}, \emph{union}, \emph{complement}.

\par
The name is due to \emph{G. Boole} who defined this structure to be able to
use algebraic methods within propositional calculus.

\section{Boolean Class Operators} \label{chapter3_section0} \hypertarget{chapter3_section0}{}
With rule~\ref{rule:classDefinition} we can define new class operators with the
help of logical connectives.

\par
The union of two classes contains exactly all elements of both classes.

\begin{defn}[Union Operator\index{union}\index{class!union}]
\label{definition:union} \hypertarget{definition:union}{}
$$(x \cup y)\ := \ \{ z \ | \ (z \in x\ \lor \ z \in y) \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
Analogous the intersection of two classes is defined as the class which 
contains exactly those elements that are member of both classes.

\begin{defn}[Intersection Operator\index{intersection}\index{class!intersection}]
\label{definition:intersection} \hypertarget{definition:intersection}{}
$$(x \cap y)\ := \ \{ z \ | \ (z \in x\ \land \ z \in y) \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
Also the complement of a class can be simply defined.

\begin{defn}[Complement Operator\index{complement}\index{class!complement}]
\label{definition:complement} \hypertarget{definition:complement}{}
$$\overline{x}\ := \ \{ z \ | \ z \notin x \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
If a set is an element of the union of two classes can be checked directly.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:unionMember} \hypertarget{theorem:unionMember}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $z \in (x \cup y)\ \leftrightarrow \ (z \in x\ \lor \ z \in y)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Membership of an intersection can be written down directly too.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:intersectionMember} \hypertarget{theorem:intersectionMember}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $z \in (x \cap y)\ \leftrightarrow \ (z \in x\ \land \ z \in y)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
For the membership of the complement we have a simular result but here we must check
the property \emph{is a set} explicitly.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:complementMember} \hypertarget{theorem:complementMember}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $z \in \overline{x}\ \leftrightarrow \ (\mathfrak{M}(z)\ \land \ z \notin x)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
By the previous propositions we learned how to transform the logical 
operators $\lor$, $\land$ and $\neg$ into the class operators $\cup$, $\cap$ and $\bar{~}$. So we are now able to transform the logical laws into set theoretic
propositions.

\begin{prop}

For a boolean algebra a \emph{partial order}\index{order!partial} relation can be defined. Therefore we can do 
the same for the boolean class algebra.

\par
We define the \emph{subclass relation} (\emph{inclusion}) by an intersection.

\begin{defn}[Subclass Predicate\index{subclass}\index{inclusion}]
\label{definition:subclass} \hypertarget{definition:subclass}{}
$$x \ \subseteq \ y\ :\leftrightarrow \ (x \cap y) \ =  \ x$$

\end{defn}

If $x$ and $y$ are sets we also say: $x$ is \emph{subset}\index{subset} of $y$.

Now we get the common subclass definition as a proposition.

\section{Singletons and Class Pairs} \label{chapter3_section3} \hypertarget{chapter3_section3}{}
A class can be defined by explicitly listing its members.

\par
Especially by saying that one element is inside the class we can define the so called \emph{singleton}.
With rule \ref{theorem:comprehension} again we can extend the syntax and provide a new abbreviation.

\begin{defn}[Singleton\index{singleton}]
\label{definition:singleton} \hypertarget{definition:singleton}{}
$$\{ x \}\ := \ \{ y \ | \ (\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ y \ =  \ x) \} $$

\end{defn}

If $x$ is a proper class the term $\{x\}$ is also defined. In this case all sets
$y$ fulfill the condition 
$\mathfrak{M}(y) \land (\mathfrak{M}(x) \rightarrow y = x)$ and the singleton is
identical with the universal class. This leads to a smother handling of the
singelton.\footnote{Other authors as K.~G{\"o}del for example define 
$\{x\} = \{y~|~y = x\}$.}


\par
For sets the singleton has only the set itself as a member.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setSingletonHasSetAsOnlyElement} \hypertarget{theorem:setSingletonHasSetAsOnlyElement}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \forall z\ (z \in \{ x \}\ \leftrightarrow \ z \ =  \ x)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
If we have a proper class the singleton is the universal class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:properSingletonIsUniversalClass} \hypertarget{theorem:properSingletonIsUniversalClass}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\neg \mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \{ x \} \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Beeing a set singleton is equivalent to be member of its singleton.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setSingletonEqualHasItselfAsElement} \hypertarget{theorem:setSingletonEqualHasItselfAsElement}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \leftrightarrow \ x \in \{ x \}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Now we can simply define the \emph{pair} class as union of two singletons.

\begin{defn}[Pair\index{pair}]
\label{definition:pair} \hypertarget{definition:pair}{}
$$\{ x, y \}\ := \ (\{ x \} \cup \{ y \})$$

\end{defn}




\par
A class pair can be described directly without referencing singletons.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:classPairIsEqual} \hypertarget{theorem:classPairIsEqual}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\{ x, y \} \ =  \ \{ z \ | \ ((\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ (z \ =  \ x\ \lor \ z \ =  \ y)) \} $
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
For set pairs beeing a member of a pair can canonically be simplified.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:membershipOfClassPair} \hypertarget{theorem:membershipOfClassPair}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \forall z\ (z \in \{ x, y \}\ \leftrightarrow \ (z \ =  \ x\ \lor \ z \ =  \ y))$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
If one of the classes for building a class pair is proper the resulting pair
is identical to the universal set.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:properClassPairIsUniversalClass} \hypertarget{theorem:properClassPairIsUniversalClass}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\neg \mathfrak{M}(x)\ \lor \ \neg \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \{ x, y \} \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
We note that building a class pair is commutative.

\label{theorem:classPairBuildingIsCommutative} \hypertarget{theorem:classPairBuildingIsCommutative}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\{ x, y \} \ =  \ \{ y, x \}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
The singleton can be expressed as a special case of a class pair.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:singletonIsClassPair} \hypertarget{theorem:singletonIsClassPair}{}

\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}

Beeing a set is equivalent to beeing element of a class pair.

\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \leftrightarrow \ x \in \{ x, y \}$

\end{prop}




\par
For sets beeing an element is equal to beeing a subclass of its singleton.

\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}

Identity of set pairs behaves as expected.

\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\section{Infinite Boolean Operators} \label{chapter3_section4} \hypertarget{chapter3_section4}{}
It is also possible to build infinite intersections and unions. It must only be declared which classes
are used to build the result.

\par
For a class of sets a \emph{product} is defined: all sets that are elements of each set
are member of the product.

\begin{defn}[Set Product\index{set product}\index{product!of sets}]
\label{setProduct} \hypertarget{setProduct}{}
$$\bigcap \ x\ := \ \{ z \ | \ \forall y\ (y \in x\ \rightarrow \ z \in y) \} $$

\end{defn}

This function can be viewed as a generalization of the intersection operation.
See also proposition~\ref{theorem:setPairSetSumProduct}.

\par
We also say the class $x$ defines a \emph{family of sets}\index{family!of sets}\index{set!family}. 
Any element of $x$ is a member of the family.


\par
As usual we can descibe the membership of the set product as follows.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setProductMembership} \hypertarget{theorem:setProductMembership}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $z \in \bigcap \ x\ \leftrightarrow \ (\mathfrak{M}(z)\ \land \ \forall y\ (y \in x\ \rightarrow \ z \in y))$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
We find for the special case of $x\,=\,\emptyset$.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:emptySetProduct} \hypertarget{theorem:emptySetProduct}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\bigcap \ \emptyset \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
If we build the set product of a non empty class we can
drop the set condition.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:nonEmptySetProductMembership} \hypertarget{theorem:nonEmptySetProductMembership}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $x \ \neq  \ \emptyset\ \rightarrow \ (z \in \bigcap \ x\ \leftrightarrow \ \forall y\ (y \in x\ \rightarrow \ z \in y))$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
Analogous we  can define the \emph{set sum}.
Exactly the elements, that are member of some set in the family, should be member of the set sum.

\begin{defn}[Set Sum\index{set sum}\index{sum!of sets}]
\label{definition:setSum} \hypertarget{definition:setSum}{}
$$\bigcup \ x\ := \ \{ z \ | \ \exists y\ (y \in x\ \land \ z \in y) \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
The set sum membership can be expressed by the following formula.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:setSumMembership} \hypertarget{theorem:setSumMembership}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $z \in \bigcup \ x\ \leftrightarrow \ \exists y\ (y \in x\ \land \ z \in y)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}

Here we can drop the set condition $\mathfrak{M}(z)$.


\par
For the empty class we obtain.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:emptySetSum} \hypertarget{theorem:emptySetSum}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\bigcup \ \emptyset \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$

Later on we can drop the set condition because of new axioms.

\chapter{Sets, Relations and Functions} \label{chapter4} \hypertarget{chapter4}{}

In this chapter we concentrate on the property \emph{is a set} and we introduce new axioms to assure
the existence of sets.

\par
To be able to define relations within our theory we need the new class operator \emph{ordered pair}. 
With this operator we can define \emph{Cartesian products} of classes. Relations are no other
than subclasses of Cartesian products and fullfil the laws of an \emph{universal algebra}\index{algebra!univeral}.

\par
A special kind of relations are the \emph{equivalence relations} which form a more abstract form of 
equality. Functions are also a special kind of relations. The axiom of replacement guaranties that
sets are maped onto sets.

\section{Sets} \label{chapter4_section0} \hypertarget{chapter4_section0}{}
For the presentation of the boolean class algebra we needed no set theoretic axioms. In the following
we get some more axioms that give conditions for beeing a set.

\par
The empty class should be a set.

\begin{ax}[Empty Set Axiom\index{axiom!empty set}]
\label{axiom:emptySet} \hypertarget{axiom:emptySet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(\emptyset)$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}

This is the first time we know about the existence of a set.


\par
To ensure the set property for set pairs we have out next axiom.

\begin{ax}[Pairing Set Axiom\index{axiom!pairing set}]
\label{axiom:pairingSet} \hypertarget{axiom:pairingSet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\{ x, y \})$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}




\par
The sum set of a set should be a set too.

\begin{ax}[Axiom of the Sum Set\index{axiom!of the sum set}]
\label{axiom:setSumSet} \hypertarget{axiom:setSumSet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\bigcup \ x)$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}




\par
īThe power class of a set should also be a set.

\begin{ax}[Power Set Axiom\index{axiom!power set}]
\label{axiom:powerSet} \hypertarget{axiom:powerSet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\mathfrak{P}(x))$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}




\par
The subclass of a set should also be a set.

\begin{ax}[Subset Axiom\index{axiom!subset}]
\label{axiom:subset} \hypertarget{axiom:subset}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ y \ \subseteq \ x)\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(y)$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}




The above set axioms enables us to construct sets. Starting with 
axiom~\ref{axiom:emptySet} we have one first set $\emptyset$. By applying
axiom~\ref{axiom:powerSet} we get the set $\{ \emptyset \}$. Building the
power class again provides the set $\{ \emptyset, \{ \emptyset \} \}$. 
By repeating this procedure we get an infinite number of 
sets.\footnote{One can easily show that they are all different.}

\par
Furthermore we notice that our current axioms can show only the existence of
sets with a finite number of members. These finite classes are `save' in
the following sense: they alone can not lead to the contradictions as the 
unrestricted set theory of Zermelo.


\par
The new axioms enable us to derive some more propositions.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:isSet} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{0.9\linewidth}l}}
\centering $(\neg \mathfrak{M}(y)\ \land \ y \ \subseteq \ x)\ \rightarrow \ \neg \mathfrak{M}(x)$ & \label{theorem:isSet:a} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:a}{} \mbox{\emph{(a)}} \\
\centering $\neg \mathfrak{M}(\mathfrak{V})$ & \label{theorem:isSet:b} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:b}{} \mbox{\emph{(b)}} \\
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}((x \cup y))$ & \label{theorem:isSet:c} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:c}{} \mbox{\emph{(c)}} \\
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}((x \cap y))$ & \label{theorem:isSet:d} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:d}{} \mbox{\emph{(d)}} \\
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\{ x \})$ & \label{theorem:isSet:e} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:e}{} \mbox{\emph{(e)}} \\
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \rightarrow \ \neg \mathfrak{M}(\overline{x})$ & \label{theorem:isSet:f} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:f}{} \mbox{\emph{(f)}} \\
\centering $x \ =  \ \bigcup \ \mathfrak{P}(x)$ & \label{theorem:isSet:g} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:g}{} \mbox{\emph{(g)}} \\
\centering $\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \leftrightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\bigcup \ x)$ & \label{theorem:isSet:h} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:h}{} \mbox{\emph{(h)}} \\
\centering $\bigcap \ \mathfrak{V} \ =  \ \emptyset$ & \label{theorem:isSet:i} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:i}{} \mbox{\emph{(i)}} \\
\centering $\bigcup \ \mathfrak{V} \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$ & \label{theorem:isSet:j} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:j}{} \mbox{\emph{(j)}} \\
\centering $x \ \neq  \ \emptyset\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\bigcap \ x)$ & \label{theorem:isSet:k} \hypertarget{theorem:isSet:k}{} \mbox{\emph{(k)}} 
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\section{Ordered Pair} \label{chapter4_section1} \hypertarget{chapter4_section1}{}
The concept of an ordered pair is vital for our further development.
It enables us to arrange objects. Till now our object collections did not depend on the
order of gathering. We wish to figure out which element was \emph{first} and which element
was \emph{second} afterwards.

\par
Our definition of an \emph{ordered pair} $\langle x, y\rangle$ is due to  \emph{N.~Wiener} (1914) and \emph{K.~Kuratowski} (1921).

\begin{defn}[Ordered Pair\index{pair!ordered}\index{ordered pair}]
\label{definition:orderedPair} \hypertarget{definition:orderedPair}{}
$$\langle x, y \rangle\ := \ \{ \{ x \}, \{ x, y \} \}$$

\end{defn}




\par
For an ordered pair of sets the order of the defining elements matters.
Ordered pairs should only be identical if their first elements 
are identical and their second elements are identical.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:orderedPairEquality} \hypertarget{theorem:orderedPairEquality}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(u)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(v))\ \rightarrow \ (\langle x, y \rangle \ =  \ \langle u, v \rangle\ \rightarrow \ (x \ =  \ u\ \land \ y \ =  \ v))$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
An ordered pair made of sets is also a set. The reverse is also true.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:orderedPairOfSets} \hypertarget{theorem:orderedPairOfSets}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\mathfrak{M}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \leftrightarrow \ \mathfrak{M}(\langle x, y \rangle)$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
If one of the classes is not a set the resulting ordered pair is 
identical with the universal class.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:orderedPairWithNonSet} \hypertarget{theorem:orderedPairWithNonSet}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $(\neg \mathfrak{M}(x)\ \lor \ \neg \mathfrak{M}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \langle x, y \rangle \ =  \ \mathfrak{V}$
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
To speak of ordered pairs we need a predicate that says `is an ordered pair'.

\begin{defn}[Ordered Pair Property\index{ordered pair!property}\index{pair!ordered}]
\label{definition:isOrderedPair} \hypertarget{definition:isOrderedPair}{}
$$\mbox{isOrderedPair}(x)\ :\leftrightarrow \ \exists u\ \exists v\ x \ =  \ \langle u, v \rangle$$

\end{defn}

We notice that $\mathfrak{V}$ is also an ordered pair. But because we mostly speak
about class members we must only deal with sets that might be ordered pairs.


\section{Cartesian Product} \label{chapter4_section2} \hypertarget{chapter4_section2}{}
For the ordered pairs we need a meta structure. We just assemble ordered pairs into a class.

\par
The \emph{Cartesian product}\footnote{Named after the the French philosopher and mathematician \emph{R.~Descartes} also known as \emph{Cartesius}.} also called \emph{direct product} is the class of all ordered pairs, which elements are members of the origin classes.

\begin{defn}[Cartesian Product\index{product!Cartesian}\index{Cartesian product}\index{direct product}\index{product!direct}]
\label{definition:cartesianProduct} \hypertarget{definition:cartesianProduct}{}
$$( x \times y)\ := \ \{ z \ | \ \exists u\ \exists v\ (u \in x\ \land \ v \in y\ \land \ z \ =  \ \langle u, v \rangle) \} $$

\end{defn}




\section{Relations} \label{chapter4_section3} \hypertarget{chapter4_section3}{}
It is important to be able to express relations between
mathematical objects and to handle them as objects
too. It turns out that we do not have to introduce new
kinds of objects. Our current structures are sufficient.

\par
We are now able to define a \emph{relation} within our set theory.

\begin{defn}[Relation\index{relation}]
\label{definition:relation} \hypertarget{definition:relation}{}
$$\mathfrak{Rel}(x)\ :\leftrightarrow \ \forall y\ (y \in x\ \rightarrow \ \mbox{isOrderedPair}(y))$$

\end{defn}




\par
Some propositions about relations.

\begin{prop}
\label{theorem:relationProperties} \hypertarget{theorem:relationProperties}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{0.9\linewidth}l}}
\centering $\mathfrak{Rel}(\emptyset)$ & \label{theorem:relationProperties:a} \hypertarget{theorem:relationProperties:a}{} \mbox{\emph{(a)}} \\
\centering $\mathfrak{Rel}(( \mathfrak{V} \times \mathfrak{V}))$ & \label{theorem:relationProperties:b} \hypertarget{theorem:relationProperties:b}{} \mbox{\emph{(b)}} \\
\centering $(\mathfrak{Rel}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{Rel}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{Rel}((x \cap y))$ & \label{theorem:relationProperties:c} \hypertarget{theorem:relationProperties:c}{} \mbox{\emph{(c)}} \\
\centering $(\mathfrak{Rel}(x)\ \land \ \mathfrak{Rel}(y))\ \rightarrow \ \mathfrak{Rel}((x \cup y))$ & \label{theorem:relationProperties:d} \hypertarget{theorem:relationProperties:d}{} \mbox{\emph{(d)}} 
\end{longtable}

\end{prop}




\par
We now give an universal definition of the concept \emph{domain}.

\begin{defn}[Domain\index{domain}]
\label{definition:domain} \hypertarget{definition:domain}{}
$$\mathfrak{Dom}(x)\ := \ \{ y \ | \ \exists z\ \langle y, z \rangle \in x \} $$

\end{defn}




\par
Analogous to the domain we specify the \emph{range} of a class.

\begin{defn}[Range\index{range}]
\label{definition:range} \hypertarget{definition:range}{}
$$\mathfrak{Rng}(x)\ := \ \{ y \ | \ \exists z\ \langle z, y \rangle \in x \} $$

\end{defn}

\end{defn}




\par
If the domain of a function is a set so its range should be a set too.

\par
Sets $x$ should not contain itself as a member, or contain an element that contains $x$. 
To avoid these and further membership circles we provide the following axiom.

\begin{ax}[Axiom of Foundation\index{axiom!of foundation}\index{axiom!of regularity}]
\label{axiom:foundation} \hypertarget{axiom:foundation}{}
\mbox{}
\begin{longtable}{{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}p{\linewidth}}}
\centering $x \ \neq  \ \emptyset\ \rightarrow \ \exists y\ (y \in x\ \land \ (y \cap x) \ =  \ \emptyset)$
\end{longtable}

\end{ax}

This axiom is also called axiom of regularity.


\par
A canonical class extension is the union with its singleton.

\begin{defn}[Successor\index{successor}]
\label{definition:successor} \hypertarget{definition:successor}{}
$$x'\ := \ (x \cup \{ x \})$$

\end{defn}

Because $x \notin x$ the successor function adds just one elment to
the original class.


\par
We want to have a set with an infinite number of elements. So we just postulate its existence.
