no variable in the formula once as free occurs and as a bound variable,
there is another variable behind each quantifier .
Each formula has an equivalent adjusted formula. Each formula can be converted into a corrected form by appropriate, bound renaming.
example
In the formula the variables and are bound and is free. is thus adjusted. In the formula , all occurrences of the variable are bound, but both bound and free occur. is therefore not in an adjusted form. A transfer for is the following renaming (when renaming, the bound variables must be renamed):
