The axioms

  • Extensionality, two sets with the same elements are equal.
x,y,z (zxzy)(x=y)
  • Separation, subsets exist
y1,p y2 x xy2(pxy1)
where p is any proposition
  • The empty set exists
x y y∉x
  • Union, the union of all members of a set is a set.
x y z zy(u tuux)
  • Power sets exist
x y z zy(t txty)
we denote this set y by P(x)
  • Infinity, an infinite set exists
x (x)(y yxP(y)x)
  • Foundation, no set is a member of itself
x x(yx yx=)
