Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

109 \(\Rightarrow\) 147 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
109 \(\Rightarrow\) 66	clear
66 \(\Rightarrow\) 67	Existence of a basis implies the axiom of choice, Blass, A. 1984a, Contemporary Mathematics
67 \(\Rightarrow\) 147	The axiom of choice in topology, Brunner, N. 1983d, Notre Dame J. Formal Logic note-26

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
109:	Every field \(F\) and every vector space \(V\) over \(F\) has the property that each linearly independent set \(A\subseteq V\) can be extended to a basis. H.Rubin/J.~Rubin [1985], pp 119ff.
66:	Every vector space over a field has a basis.
67:	\(MC(\infty,\infty)\) \((MC)\), The Axiom of Multiple Choice: For every set \(M\) of non-empty sets there is a function \(f\) such that \((\forall x\in M)(\emptyset\neq f(x)\subseteq x\) and \(f(x)\) is finite).
147:	\(A(D2)\): Every \(T_2\) topological space \((X,T)\) can be covered by a well ordered family of discrete sets.
