Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

50 \(\Rightarrow\) 132 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

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.
49:	Order Extension Principle: Every partial ordering can be extended to a linear ordering. Tarski [1924], p 78.
30:	Ordering Principle: Every set can be linearly ordered.
62:	\(C(\infty,< \aleph_{0})\): Every set of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
132:	\(PC(\infty, <\aleph_0,\infty)\): Every infinite family of finite sets has an infinite subfamily with a choice function.
