Theoreminfxpidmlem8 4940 Lemma for infxpidm 4945. The union of a collection of chains C in the collection of bijections H belongs to H. This property will be needed to apply Zorn's Lemma in infxpidmlem9 4941.

Theoreminfxpidmlem9 4941 Lemma for infxpidm 4945. By Zorn's Lemma zorn2 3612, the collection H (which we show here to be a set) has a maximal element.

Theoreminfxpidmlem11 4943 Lemma for infxpidm 4945. We show that the union of a bijection g in H with a disjoint bijection u is a member h of H that is larger than (properly extends) g. Thus if the antecedent is true then g cannot be maximal.
H = {f∣(f = ∅ ∨ ∃t((ω ≼ ttA) ∧ f:(t × t)–1-1-ontot))}    &   AV    ⇒   (((((ω ≼ xxA) ∧ g:(x × x)–1-1-ontox) ∧ (xyy ⊆ (Ax))) ∧ u:((x × y) ∪ ((y × x) ∪ (y × y)))–1-1-ontoy) → ∃hH gh)
 
Theoreminfxpidmlem12 4944 Lemma for infxpidm 4945. Letting x be the range of a maximal bijection g in H, infxpidmlem11 4943 lets us show that assuming x ≼ (Ax) leads to the contradiction ∃hHgh meaning g is not maximal. Thus (Ax) ≺ x. This allows us to show that x is as big as A. Since x is idempotent, and g exists by Zorn's Lemma in infxpidmlem9 4941, A is also idempotent.

Theoreminfxpidm 4945 The cross product of an infinite set with itself is idempotent. This theorem provides the basis for infinite cardinal arithmetic. Lemma 6R of [Enderton] p. 162, whose proof we closely follow. The main proof consists of infxpidmlem1 4933 through infxpidmlem12 4944. This proof eliminates the hypothesis of infxpidmlem12 4944.

Theoreminfmap2lem2 4952 Lemma for infmap2 4953. Given the relation R, we use the Axiom of Choice ac7g 3570 to extract a function f that provides the one-to-one mapping for the dominance relation.
AV    &   BV    &   R = {⟨z, w⟩∣((zAzB) ∧ w:Bontoz)}    ⇒   {x∣(xAxB)} ≼ (Am B)
 
Theoreminfmap2 4953 An exponentiation law for infinite cardinals. Similar to Lemma 6.2 of [Jech] p. 43. We start with infmap2lem2 4952 and also prove the other direction of the dominance relation. We obtain equinumerosity with Schroeder-Bernstein sbth 3359 and finally eliminate the degenerate case B = ∅.

Theoremalephsuc3 4955 An alternate representation of a successor aleph. Compare alephsuc 3672 and alephsuc2 3686. Equality can be obtained by taking the card of the right-hand side then using alephcard 3673 and carden 3638.

Theoremalephexp2 4956 An expression equinumerous to 2 to an aleph power. The proof equates the two laws for cardinal exponentiation alephexp1 4954 (which works if the base is less than or equal to the exponent) and infmap2 4953 (which works if the exponent is less than or equal to the base). They can be equated only when the base is equal to the exponent, and this is the result.

Theoremgch-kn 4957 The equivalence of two versions of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis. The right-hand side is the standard version in the literature. The left-hand side is a version devised by Kannan Nambiar, which he calls the Axiom of Combinatorial Sets. For the notation and motivation behind this axiom, see his paper, "Derivation of Continuum Hypothesis from Axiom of Combinatorial Sets," available at http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~kannan/science/derivation_ch.pdf . This theorem provides a negative answer to Open Problem 2 in http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~kannan/science/open_problem_print.pdf . The key idea in the proof below is to equate both sides of alephexp2 4956 to the successor aleph using enen2 3376.
(A ∈ On → ((ℵ ‘suc A) ≈ {x∣(x ⊆ (ℵ ‘A) ∧ x ≈ (ℵ ‘A))} ↔ (ℵ ‘suc A) ≈ (2om (ℵ ‘A))))
