The primitive symbols of E are those of F, plus the symbol ∃. The formation Rules of E are those of F, plus the following If B is a wff of E and x is an individual variable, then ∃xB is a wff of E. The axiom schemata of E are those of F plus
F= = F + “ = ” + 2 Axiom Schemata Axiom Schema 6 x = x. Axiom Schema 7 x = y ⊃ (SzxA ⊃ SzyA) where A is an atomic wff. A first order theory is a first-order theory with equality if it has a binary predicate = such that the wffs above are theorem of the theory
Interpretation over a singleton Let I be , and σ ∈ ΣI. 1. I(A)(σ) = I(∀xA)(σ). 2. I(t)(σ) = a. 3. I(Sx1,···,xn t1,···,tn A)(σ) = I(A)(σ). 4. I0(P), σ(P) ∈ {I(n), Ψ(n)} for every n-ary predicate constant (variable), where
Interpretation An interpretation I of F is , where D is a non-empty set called the domain of individuals. I0 is a mapping defined on the constants of F satisfying 1. If c is an individual constant, then I0(c) ∈ D. 2. If f n is an n-ary function constant, then I0(f n) : Dn → D
Axiom Schemata for F Axiom Schema 1 A ∨ A ⊃ A Axiom Schema 2 A ⊃ (B ∨ A) Axiom Schema 3 A ⊃ B ⊃ (C ∨ A ⊃ (B ∨ C)) Axiom Schema 4 ∀xA ⊃ Sxt A where t is a term free for the individual variable x in A Axiom Schema 5 ∀x(A ∨ B) ⊃ (A ∨ ∀xB) provided that x is not free in A
Substitutivity of Equivalence Let A,M and N be wffs and let AMN be the result of replacing M by N at zero or more occurrences (henceforth called designate occurrences) of M in A. 1. AMN is a wff. 2. If |= M ≡ N then |= A ≡ AMN
