proof

consider Y being set such that

proof
let t be Element of L; :: thesis: ( t in Y iff ( t < x & not t <= z ) )

proof
assume t in Y ; :: thesis: ( t < x & not t <= z )
then consider g being Element of L such that

Y is Subset of L
proof
Y c= the carrier of L
proof
let f be set ; :: according to TARSKI:def 3 :: thesis: ( not f in Y or f in the carrier of L )
assume f in Y ; :: thesis: f in the carrier of L
then consider g being Element of L such that

thus f in the carrier of L by A10; :: thesis: verum
end;
hence Y is Subset of L ; :: thesis: verum
thus verum ; :: thesis: verum

then consider a being Element of L such that
