let FT be non empty RelStr ; for A, B being Subset of FT st FT is symmetric & A is_a_component_of FT & B is_a_component_of FT & not A = B holds
A,B are_separated
let A, B be Subset of FT; ( FT is symmetric & A is_a_component_of FT & B is_a_component_of FT & not A = B implies A,B are_separated )
assume that
A1:
FT is symmetric
and
A2:
A is_a_component_of FT
and
A3:
B is_a_component_of FT
; ( A = B or A,B are_separated )
A4:
A is connected
by A2, Def4;
A5:
A c= A \/ B
by XBOOLE_1:7;
assume that
A6:
A <> B
and
A7:
not A,B are_separated
; contradiction
B is connected
by A3, Def4;
then
A \/ B is connected
by A1, A7, A4, Th34;
then
( B c= A \/ B & A = A \/ B )
by A2, A5, Def4, XBOOLE_1:7;
hence
contradiction
by A3, A6, A4, Def4; verum
