axiom of pairing


For any a and b there exists a set {a,b} that contains exactly a and b.

The Axiom of Pairing is one of the axioms of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theoryMathworldPlanetmath. In symbols, it reads:

abcx(xcx=ax=b).

Using the Axiom of ExtensionalityMathworldPlanetmath, we see that the set c is unique, so it makes sense to define the pair

{a,b}= the unique c such that x(xcx=ax=b).

Using the Axiom of Pairing, we may define, for any set a, the singleton

{a}={a,a}.

We may also define, for any set a and b, the ordered pairMathworldPlanetmath

(a,b)={{a},{a,b}}.

Note that this definition satisfies the condition

(a,b)=(c,d) iff a=c and b=d.

We may define the ordered n-tuple recursively

(a1,,an)=((a1,,an-1),an).
