let H be ZF-formula; for x, y being Variable st H is negative holds
the_argument_of (H / x,y) = (the_argument_of H) / x,y
let x, y be Variable; ( H is negative implies the_argument_of (H / x,y) = (the_argument_of H) / x,y )
assume A1:
H is negative
; the_argument_of (H / x,y) = (the_argument_of H) / x,y
then
H / x,y is negative
by Th182;
then A2:
H / x,y = 'not' (the_argument_of (H / x,y))
by ZF_LANG:def 30;
H = 'not' (the_argument_of H)
by A1, ZF_LANG:def 30;
hence
the_argument_of (H / x,y) = (the_argument_of H) / x,y
by A2, Th170; verum
