I'm reading the book Mathematical logic by Cori and Lascar and, though I understand now what is a canonical disjunctive normal form, I can't understand what is written here:
Let $X$ be a non-empty subset of $\{0,1\}^n$ and let $F_X$ be the formula: \begin{equation} \bigvee_{(\varepsilon_1,...,\varepsilon_n) \in X }\left(\bigwedge_{1\leq i \leq n}\varepsilon_i A_i\right)\ \end{equation}
Then the formula $F_X$ is satisfied by those distributions of truth values $\delta_{\varepsilon_1 ... \varepsilon_n}$ for which $(\varepsilon_1, ..., \varepsilon_n) \in X$ and only by these.
We can read the formula inside the parentheses as a sort of algebraic multiplication : $0A_1 ∧ 1A_2 ∧ \ldots ∧ 0A_n$, that corresponds to formula :
See page 34 :
And $\delta_{\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2,\ldots, \varepsilon_n}$ is the distribution of truth values that assigns to propositional variable $A_i$ the truth value $\varepsilon_i$.
For each propositional variable $A$ and for each $\varepsilon \in \{ 0,1 \}$ we have that :
