⚠️ Retired — incorrect formalization

The Lean statement below does not express the result Exists_Bijection_to_a_Disjoint_Set is named for, so its Disproved status carries no information about it. Do not import it or use it as a dependency.

For any set S, there exists a set T disjoint from S and a bijection between S and T.

Why this node was retired

The posted statement is

theorem Exists_Bijection_to_a_Disjoint_Set {α : Type _} (S : Set α) : ∃ (β : Type _) (T : Set β) (f : S ≃ T), True := by sorry

The goal is ∃ (β : Type _) (T : Set β) (f : S ≃ T), True, which imposes no relation whatsoever between T and S beyond equinumerosity — in particular the disjointness that the name is about is nowhere stated.

What a faithful statement would require

T must be exhibited inside a type where disjointness from S is meaningful, with Disjoint S T (or an explicit disjoint copy construction) as part of the conclusion.

No corrected replacement node exists yet.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
