Russell's Paradox
 
Theoremru 1935 Russell's Paradox. Proposition 4.14 of [TakeutiZaring] p. 14. Frege's Axiom of (unrestricted) Comprehension, expressed in our notation as A e. V, asserted that any collection of sets A is a set i.e. belongs to the universe V of all sets. In particular, by substituting {x | x e/ x} (the "Russell class") for A, it asserted {x | x e/ x} e. V, meaning that the "collection of all sets which are not members of themselves" is a set. However, here we prove {x | x e/ x} e/ V. This contradiction was discovered by Russell in 1901 (published in 1903), invalidating Comprehension and leading to the collapse of Frege's system.

In 1908 Zermelo rectified this fatal flaw by replacing Comprehension with a weaker Subset (or Separation) Axiom ssex 2715 asserting that A is a set only when it is smaller than some other set B. However, Zermelo was then faced with a "chicken and egg" problem of how to show B is a set, leading him to introduce the set-building axioms of Null Set 0ex 2707, Pairing prex 2777, Union uniex 2866, Power Set pwex 2741, and Infinity omex 4610 to give him some starting sets to work with (all of which, before Russell's Paradox, were immediate consequences of Frege's Comprehension). In 1922 Fraenkel strengthened the Subset Axiom with our present Replacement Axiom funimaex 3571 (whose modern formalization is due to Skolem, also in 1922). Thus in a very real sense Russell's Paradox spawned the invention of ZF set theory and completely revised the foundations of mathematics!

Another mainstream formalization of set theory, devised by von Neumann, Bernays, and Goedel, uses class variables rather than set variables as its primitives. The axiom system NBG in [Mendelson] p. 225 is suitable for a Metamath encoding. NBG is a conservative extension of ZF in that it proves exactly the same theorems as ZF that are expressible in the language of ZF. An advantage of NBG is that it is finitely axiomatizable - the Axiom of Replacement can be broken down into a finite set of formulas that eliminate its wff metavariable. Finite axiomatizability is required by some proof languages (although not by Metamath). There is a stronger version of NBG called Morse-Kelley (axiom system MK in [Mendelson] p. 287).

Russell himself continued in a different direction, avoiding the paradox with his "theory of types." Quine extended Russell's ideas to formulate the very strong New Foundations set theory (axiom system NF of [Quine] p. 331). In NF, the collection of all sets is a set, contradicting ZF and NBG set theories, and it has other bizarre consequences: when sets become too huge (beyond the size of those used in standard mathematics), the Axiom of Choice ac4 4733 and Cantor's Theorem canth 3901 are provably false! (See ncanth 3902 for some intuition behind the latter.) Nonetheless, NF has not been shown to be inconsistent and has its advocates - who's to say which set theory is "right"? NF is finitely axiomatizable and can be encoded in Metamath using the axioms from T. Hailperin, "A set of axioms for logic," J. Symb. Logic 9:1-19 (1944).

Under our ZF set theory, every set is a member of the Russell class by elirrv 4581 (derived from the Axiom of Regularity), so for us the Russell class equals the universe V.

Definitiondf-sbc 1939 Define the proper substitution of a class for a set. This definition applies to proper classes but is not meaningful in that case (and does not produce the same results as Definition 6.6 of [Quine] p. 42). This definition is somewhat arbitrary in how it behaves with proper classes - e.g., we could have used sbc6 1954, which yields a different result for proper classes. In order to allow for a possible alternate but conflicting definition in the future, we will not commit to any specific proper class behavior. Instead, we will use this definition only to prove dfsbcq 1940, which will in turn serve as the starting point for all theorems based on the definition. Note: this definition extends or "overloads" df-sb 1171 which (via df-clab 1463) becomes a special case of it, so a careful metalogical soundness justification, outside of Metamath, is needed for complete rigor; alternately, we could treat this definition as a new axiom.

The related definition df-csb 1999 defines proper substitution into a class variable (as opposed to a wff variable).

|- ([A / x]ph <-> A e. {x | ph})
 
Theoremdfsbcq 1940 This theorem, which is similar to Theorem 6.7 of [Quine] p. 42, provides us a weak definition of the proper substitution of a class for a set that we will use in place of df-sbc 1939 above. We derive all our results from starting from here instead of df-sbc 1939. As a consequence we can derive elabs 1963, which is a weaker version of df-sbc 1939 that leaves substitution undefined when A is a proper class. We thus leave unspecified the "official" behavior for proper classes, which could be as in the sbc5 1953 assertion (always false) or as in sbc6 1954 (always true) or some more meaningful possibility in the future, that some clever person may discover, that is closer to Quine's definition. (Quine's actual definition cannot be expressed directly in our formal system.)
