Theorem cofcut1d

Description: If C is cofinal with A and D is coinitial with B and the cut of A and B lies between C and D , then the cut of C and D is equal to the cut of A and B . Theorem 2.6 of Gonshor p. 10. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 23-Jan-2025)

Ref Expression
Hypotheses cofcut1d.1 ⊢ φ → A ≪ s B
cofcut1d.2 ⊢ φ → ∀ x ∈ A ∃ y ∈ C x ≤ s y

cofcut1d.4 ⊢ φ → C ≪ s A | s B
cofcut1d.5 ⊢ φ → A | s B ≪ s D
Assertion cofcut1d ⊢ φ → A | s B = C | s D
