Implications

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

4 \(\Rightarrow\) 387
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
4 \(\Rightarrow\) 9 clear
9 \(\Rightarrow\) 82 clear
82 \(\Rightarrow\) 387 "Dense orderings, partitions, and weak forms of choice", Gonzalez, C. 1995a, Fund. Math.

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
4:

Every infinite set is the union of some disjoint family of denumerable subsets. (Denumerable means \(\cong \aleph_0\).)

9:

Finite \(\Leftrightarrow\) Dedekind finite: \(W_{\aleph_{0}}\) Jech [1973b]: \(E(I,IV)\) Howard/Yorke [1989]): Every Dedekind finite set is finite.

82:

\(E(I,III)\) (Howard/Yorke [1989]): If \(X\) is infinite then \(\cal P(X)\) is Dedekind infinite. (\(X\) is finite \(\Leftrightarrow {\cal P}(X)\) is Dedekind finite.)

387:

DPO:  Every infinite set has a non-trivial, dense partial order.  (A partial ordering \(<\) on a set \(X\) is dense if \((\forall x, y\in X)(x \lt y \to (\exists z \in X)(x \lt z \lt y))\) and is non-trivial if \((\exists x,y\in X)(x \lt y)\)).
