Q:\DIF\DIF.TXT 2000 August 16 The function DIF takes the pair(x,y) to the relative complement intersection(x,complement(y)). Using the GOEDEL program, we have found some ideas for defining this function. The prettiest formula found is this: equal(composite(VERTSECT(intersection(composite(inverse(E),FIRST), composite(complement(inverse(E)),SECOND))),id(cart(V,V))),DIF). See the notebook G:\2000\AUG\16\SYMDIF.NB.
