Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

50 \(\Rightarrow\) 62 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
50 \(\Rightarrow\) 14	A survey of recent results in set theory, Mathias, A.R.D. 1979, Period. Math. Hungar.
14 \(\Rightarrow\) 107
107 \(\Rightarrow\) 62	clear

Here are the links and statements of the form equivalence classes referenced above:

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
50:	Sikorski's Extension Theorem: Every homomorphism of a subalgebra \(B\) of a Boolean algebra \(A\) into a complete Boolean algebra \(B'\) can be extended to a homomorphism of \(A\) into \(B'\). Sikorski [1964], p. 141.
14:	BPI: Every Boolean algebra has a prime ideal.
107:	M. Hall's Theorem: Let \(\{S(\alpha): \alpha\in A\}\) be a collection of finite subsets (of a set \(X\)) then if () for each finite \(F \subseteq A\) there is an injective choice function on \(F\) then there is an injective choice function on \(A\). (That is, a 1-1 function \(f\) such that \((\forall\alpha\in A)(f(\alpha)\in S(\alpha))\).) (According to a theorem of P. Hall (\(\)) is equivalent to \(\left \|\bigcup_{\alpha\in F} S(\alpha)\right\|\ge \|F\|\). P. Hall's theorem does not require the axiom of choice.)
62:	\(C(\infty,< \aleph_{0})\): Every set of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
