Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

68 \(\Rightarrow\) 401 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
68 \(\Rightarrow\) 62	Subgroups of a free group and the axiom of choice, Howard, P. 1985, J. Symbolic Logic
62 \(\Rightarrow\) 121	clear
121 \(\Rightarrow\) 401	clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
68:	Nielsen-Schreier Theorem: Every subgroup of a free group is free. Jech [1973b], p 12.
62:	\(C(\infty,< \aleph_{0})\): Every set of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
121:	\(C(LO,<\aleph_{0})\): Every linearly ordered set of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
401:	\(KW(LO,<\aleph_0)\), The Kinna-Wagner Selection Principle for a linearly ordered set of finite sets: For every linearly ordered set of finite sets \(M\) there is a function \(f\) such that for all \(A\in M\), if \(\|A\|>1\) then \(\emptyset\neq f(A)\subsetneq A\).
