Theorem cdaval 3717
Description: Value of cardinal addition. Definition of cardinal sum in [Mendelson] p. 258. For cardinal arithmetic, we follow Mendelson. Rather than defining operations restricted to cardinal numbers, we use this disjoint union operation for addition, while cross product and set exponentiation stand in for cardinal multiplication and exponentiation. Equinumerosity and dominance serve the roles of equality and ordering. If we wanted to, we could easily convert our theorems to actual cardinal number operations via carden 3638, carddom 3642, and cardsdom 3643. The advantage of Mendelson's approach is that we can directly use many equinumerosity theorems that we already have available.
