Definition df-rmo

Description: Define restricted "at most one".

Note: This notation is most often used to express that ph holds for at most 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 at most 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, 16-Jun-2017)
