Theoremmeredith 644 Carew Meredith's sole axiom for propositional calculus. This amazing formula is thought to be the shortest possible single axiom for propositional calculus using negation, implication, and inference rule ax-mp 6. Here we prove Meredith's axiom from ax-1 3, ax-2 4, and ax-3 5. Then from it we derive the Lukasiewicz axioms luk-1 658, luk-2 659, and luk-3 660. Using these we finally re-derive our axioms as ax1 669, ax2 670, and ax3 671, thus proving the equivalence of all three systems. C. A. Meredith, "Single Axioms for the Systems (C,N), (C,O) and (A,N) of the Two-Valued Propositional Calculus", The Journal of Computing Systems vol. 3 (1953), pp. 155-164. Meredith claimed to be close to a proof that this axiom is the shortest possible, but the proof was apparently never completed.

An obscure Irish lecturer, Meredith (1904-1976) became enamored with logic somewhat late in life after attending talks by Lukasiewicz and produced many remarkable results such as this axiom. From his obituary: "He did logic whenever time and opportunity presented themselves, and he did it on whatever materials came to hand: in a pub, his favored pint of porter within reach, he would use the inside of cigarette packs to write proofs for logical colleagues."

Syntaxwal 672 Extend wff definition to include the universal quantifier ('for all'). ∀xφ is read "φ (phi) is true for all x." Typically, in its final application φ would be replaced with a wff containing a (free) occurrence of the variable x, for example x = y. In a universe with a finite number of objects, "for all" is equivalent to a big conjunction (AND) with one wff for each possible case of x. When the universe is infinite (as with set theory), such a propositional-calculus equivalent is not possible because an infinitely long formula has no meaning, but conceptually the idea is the same.
wff xφ
 
Axiomax-4 673 Axiom of Specialization. A quantified wff implies the wff without a quantifier (i.e. an instance, or special case, of the generalized wff). In other words if something is true for all x, it is true for any specific x (that would typically occur as a free variable in the wff substituted for φ). (A free variable is one that does not occur in the scope of a quantifier: x and y are both free in x = y, but only y is free in ∀xx = y.) This is one of the 4 axioms of what we call "pure" predicate calculus. Unlike the more typical textbook Axiom of Specialization, we cannot choose a variable different from x for the special case. That is dealt with later when substitution is introduced - see stdpc4 869. Axiom scheme C5' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). Also appears as Axiom B5 of [Tarski] p. 67 (under his system S2, defined in the last paragraph on p. 77). Note that the converse of this axiom does not hold in general, but a weaker inference form of the converse holds and is expressed as rule ax-gen 677. Conditional forms of the converse are given by ax-12 802, ax-15 806, ax-16 922, and ax-17 925.
(∀xφφ)
 
Axiomax-5 674 Axiom of Quantified Implication. This axiom moves a quantifier from outside to inside an implication, quantifying ψ. Notice that x must not be a free variable in the antecedent of the quantified implication, and we express this by binding φ to "protect" the axiom from a φ containing a free x. One of the 4 axioms of pure predicate calculus. Axiom scheme C4' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). It is a special case of Lemma 5 of [Monk2] p. 108.
(∀x(∀xφψ) → (∀xφ → ∀xψ))
 
Axiomax-6 675 Axiom of Quantified Negation. This axiom is used to manipulate negated quantifiers. One of the 4 axioms of pure predicate calculus. Equivalent to axiom scheme C7' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). Another equivalent variant ax6 711 appears as Axiom C5-2 of [Monk2] p. 113.
(¬ ∀x ¬ ∀xφφ)
 
Axiomax-7 676 Axiom of Quantifier Commutation. This axiom says universal quantifiers can be swapped. One of the 4 axioms of pure predicate calculus. Axiom scheme C6' in [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of the preprint). Also appears as Lemma 12 of [Monk2] p. 109.
(∀xyφ → ∀yxφ)
 
Axiomax-gen 677 Rule of Generalization. The postulated inference rule of pure predicate calculus. See e.g. Rule 2 of [Hamilton] p. 74. This rule says that if something is unconditionally true, then it is true for all values of a variable. For example, if we have proved x = x, we can conclude ∀xx = x or even ∀yx = x. Theorem a4i 680 shows we can go the other way also: in other words we can add or remove universal quantifiers from the beginning of any theorem as required.
