Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

260 \(\Rightarrow\) 418 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
260 \(\Rightarrow\) 40	Variations of Zorn's lemma, principles of cofinality, and Hausdorff's maximal principle, Part I and II, Harper, J. 1976, Notre Dame J. Formal Logic
40 \(\Rightarrow\) 39	clear
39 \(\Rightarrow\) 8	clear
8 \(\Rightarrow\) 418	Metric spaces and the axiom of choice, De-la-Cruz-Hall-Howard-Keremedis-Rubin-2002A[2002A], Math. Logic Quart.

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
260:	\(Z(TR\&C,P)\): If \((X,R)\) is a transitive and connected relation in which every partially ordered subset has an upper bound, then \((X,R)\) has a maximal element.
40:	\(C(WO,\infty)\): Every well orderable set of non-empty sets has a choice function. Moore, G. [1982], p 325.
39:	\(C(\aleph_{1},\infty)\): Every set \(A\) of non-empty sets such that \(\vert A\vert = \aleph_{1}\) has a choice function. Moore, G. [1982], p. 202.
8:	\(C(\aleph_{0},\infty)\):
418:	DUM(\(\aleph_0\)): The countable disjoint union of metrizable spaces is metrizable.
