Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

2 \(\Rightarrow\) 423 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
2 \(\Rightarrow\) 3	On successors in cardinal arithmetic, Truss, J. K. 1973c, Fund. Math.
3 \(\Rightarrow\) 9	Cardinal addition and the axiom of choice, Howard, P. 1974, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc.
9 \(\Rightarrow\) 10	Zermelo's Axiom of Choice, Moore, 1982, 322
10 \(\Rightarrow\) 423	clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
2:	Existence of successor cardinals: For every cardinal \(m\) there is a cardinal \(n\) such that \(m < n\) and \((\forall p < n)(p \le m)\).
3:	\(2m = m\): For all infinite cardinals \(m\), \(2m = m\).
9:	Finite \(\Leftrightarrow\) Dedekind finite: \(W_{\aleph_{0}}\) Jech [1973b]: \(E(I,IV)\) Howard/Yorke [1989]): Every Dedekind finite set is finite.
10:	\(C(\aleph_{0},< \aleph_{0})\): Every denumerable family of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
423:	\(\forall n\in \omega-\{o,1\}\), \(C(\aleph_0, n)\) : For every \(n\in \omega - \{0,1\}\), every denumerable set of \(n\) element sets has a choice function.
