• Bijectivity. Given $A,B\subset \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright )$, the maps
    \begin{align*} A\mathbin {\triangle }- & \colon \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright ) \to \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright ),\\ -\mathbin {\triangle }B & \colon \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright ) \to \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright ) \end{align*}

    are bijections with inverses given by

    \begin{align*} \webleft (A\mathbin {\triangle }-\webright )^{-1} & = -\cup \webleft (A\cap -\webright ),\\ \webleft (-\mathbin {\triangle }B\webright )^{-1} & = -\cup \webleft (B\cap -\webright ). \end{align*}

    Moreover, the map

    \[ C\mapsto C\mathbin {\triangle }\webleft (A\mathbin {\triangle }B\webright ) \]

    is a bijection of $\mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright )$ onto itself sending $A$ to $B$ and $B$ to $A$.
