Implications

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

107 \(\Rightarrow\) 178-n-N
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
107 \(\Rightarrow\) 62 clear
62 \(\Rightarrow\) 178-n-N clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
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.

178-n-N:

If  \(n\in\omega\), \(n\ge 2\) and \(N \subseteq \{ 1, 2, \ldots , n-1 \}\), \(N \neq\emptyset\), \(MC(\infty,n, N)\):  If \(X\) is any set of \(n\)-element sets then  there is  a function \(f\) with domain \(X\) such that for all \(A\in X\), \(f(A)\subseteq A\) and \(|f(A)|\in N\).
