Definition df-reu

Description: Define restricted existential uniqueness.

Note: This notation is most often used to express that ph holds for exactly one element of a given class A . For this reading F/_ x A is required, though, for example, asserted when x and A are disjoint.

Should instead A depend on x , you rather assert exactly one x fulfilling ph happens to be contained in the corresponding A ( x ) . This interpretation is rarely needed (see also df-ral ). (Contributed by NM, 22-Nov-1994)
