title: Boole's expansion theorem
text: Boole's expansion theorem, often referred to as the Shannon expansion or decomposition, is the identity: F = x ⋅ F x + x ′ ⋅ F x ′ , where F is any Boolean function, x is a variable, x ′ is the complement of x , and F x and F x ′ are F with the argument x set equal to 1 and to 0 respectively. The terms F x and F x ′ are sometimes called the positive and negative Shannon cofactors, respectively, of F with respect to x . These are functions, computed by restrict operator, restrict ⁡ and restrict ⁡
