We define a new quantifier, uniqueness quantifier, the symbol of which is $\exists!.$

For any predicate $\text{P}$ and universe $\text{U}, \exists! x \text{P}(x)$ means there is exactly one element in the universe for which $\text{P}$ is true.

Which of the following statements is(are) Valid ?

  1. $\exists!x \text{P}(x) \wedge \exists!x \text{Q}(x) \Rightarrow \exists!x (\text{P}(x) \wedge \text{Q}(x))$
  2. $\exists!x (\text{P}(x) \wedge \text{Q}(x)) \Rightarrow \exists!x \text{P}(x) \wedge \exists!x \text{Q}(x)$
  3. $\exists!x \text{P}(x) \vee \exists!x \text{Q}(x) \Rightarrow \exists!x (\text{P}(x) \vee \text{Q}(x))$
  4. $\exists!x (\text{P}(x) \vee \text{Q}(x)) \Rightarrow \exists!x \text{P}(x) \vee \exists!x \text{Q}(x)$
